Join Art & Culture for a nostalgic visit and private guided tour on 21 July of the newly reborn Hydro Majestic Hotel in the Blue Mountains following its six-year $30 million renovation. The Hydro Majestic is one of Australia’s most iconic historical hotels, with its understated elegance and warm ambience featuring plush furnishings, fireplaces and charming artworks.

Following our guided tour, enjoy Afternoon High Tea in the grand tradition of the majestic Wintergarden with its panoramic views overlooking the Megalong Valley. Afternoon high teas are served to your table on a three-tiered silver stand and consist of petit pastries, a selection of finger sandwiches, freshly baked scones, homemade jam and fresh clotted cream.  Freshly brewed speciality teas and coffees are brought to your table throughout the afternoon.  Vegetarian and gluten free options can be catered for at no additional cost.
