Hydro Majestic Blue Mountains

The Hydro Majestic Hotel on the Great Western Highway in the small village of Medlow Bath is a major Blue Mountains tourist attraction in its own right. Built between 1880 and 1903 by a Sydney businessman as a health resort incorporating three buildings, it has superb views of the unspoilt and quite spectacular Megalong Valley.

A popular romantic getaway for Sydneysiders, a multi-million dollar refurbishment to restore its original glory has been completed. Towering ceilings, polished wooden floors and furniture in the style of the period gives its public areas all the hallmarks of a gracious retreat. It has often been described as an Edwardian folly with a touch of Art Deco.

This Blue Mountains accommodation is at the start of two major bush walking trails and rents out mountain bikes for more energetic guests who want to enjoy the clean mountain air. There is a swimming pool, two tennis courts and a croquet lawn. At some 900 metres above sea level, the area is considerably cooler than Sydney from autumn (fall) through to spring so all rooms are centrally heated.

Approximately 2 hours by car from Sydney or an easy train journey to Medlow Bath station, located directly opposite the hotel. The town of Katoomba is approximately 5 minutes (4 kilometres) by car.
