The Darling Point Pad

With its decadent mix of contemporary and traditional, deep, dark, dramatic colours balanced by calming white and stunning Sydney Harbour views this over the top Darling Point apartment spans the top floor of a 1930's grand home.

The Darling Point Pad is part of the Contemporary Hotels group.
