About us

Medusa Hotel is a reimagined boutique hotel in the heart of Darlinghurst, Sydney, where bold design meets thoughtful hospitality. Set within a beautifully restored heritage terrace, we offer 18 individually styled rooms designed for travellers who want a stay that feels anything but ordinary.

Newly transformed as of August 2025, Medusa invites you to choose a room that suits your mood. From the rich, immersive tones of The Grand Velvet, to the whimsy and nostalgic of The Daydream, or the leafy, sun-dappled tranquillity of The Courtyard Cove - every space is designed with texture, tone, and story in mind.

But what truly sets us apart is how we curate comfort with creativity. At Medusa, you won’t find generic hotel rooms. Instead, we offer an intimate, design-led escape with personalised service that feels more like a creative hideaway than a hotel chain.

A Sleep Sanctuary, Redefined

For those seeking the ultimate rest, our Sleep Sanctuary Rooms are designed to enhance your sleep experience. These specially appointed rooms feature soundproofing innovations like acoustic seals, drop thresholds, and blackout curtains to create a quiet, cocooned environment. We’ve also included a curated Sweet Sleep Kit to promote a deep, restorative slumber.
