"Paddington’s Olympia Theatre has a rich creative history stretching back to 1911. Now, the landmark Oxford Street building will be reborn as a hotel with three new venues from a fashionable London hospitality studio. The Palomar restaurant, which has held an esteemed Michelin Bib Gourmand award since it opened in Soho in 2014, will bring its brand to Sydney, alongside its transplanted award-winning cocktail and wine bar sibling, The Mulwray. Coffee and bakery concept Jacob the Angel will also join the party."

The venues are part of Studio Paskin hospitality group, which includes Michelin-starred Evelyn’s Table in its London portfolio.
The meticulous restoration and redevelopment of the hotel’s heritage-listed Oxford Street site originally known as the West Olympia Theatre – an icon in Paddington’s arts & culture community – is a true labour of love by Central Element, in partnership with Boston Global Group and acclaimed Australian architecture firm, Tonkin Zulaikha Greer. Bringing the interiors to life is the renowned Woods Bagot, the creative force behind Sydney’s Ivy precinct and Shell House.
