Book NowAbout The Lobby Bar at Ace Hotel Sydney
Sink into deep lounge seating where mid-century design meets late-night Surry Hills energy. The room buzzes from late afternoon catchups through evening cocktails, anchored by a central bar counter and beats from resident DJs spinning Wednesday through Saturday. Regulars bypass routine lobby drinks for spicy pepperoni toasties, crisp fries, and cold gins while the room fills out. In back, a quiet library nook offers breathing room before you drop eight dollars into the vintage-style booth for a quick photo strip.
