The building has a very interesting history because it was called the "palace of pleasure". In the past, the hotel was one of the safe places that mainly attracted LGBT people and has become an icon of their culture over time. The building was also the birthplace of the movie "Priscilla" and plays a key role in the history of Sydney's LGBT community as a theater and event space.

The rooms designed by Alexander & Co are full of mystery. Downstairs there is a restaurant for 250 people called "Priscillas", the interior of which was conceived as a lost palace.

The kitchen is open and the guests sitting at the bar can admire the process of preparing all the dishes. Despite the fact that the interior is very decorative, the main role is played by materials associated with construction; brick and plaster.

The preserved decorative stucco and paneling give it a unique character. Leather sofas, armchairs and pouffes with tassels are reminiscent of a boudoir. The whole thing is extremely consistent and full of visual delight!
