Incredible food & dining

Bringing a new level of excellence to Western Sydney’s dining scene is Marcel Bar and Bistro and lobby bar Tori.

On the first floor, atop a sweeping central staircase, Marcel makes an immediate impression with a Bauhaus-inspired design in subdued primary colours and sleek shapes. The modern European restaurant offers a refined but welcoming atmosphere with elegant dishes that celebrate the area’s abundant produce. Beside it, the bar boasts a stunning open wine cellar, where guests can browse, select and chat with sommeliers.

Tori, on the ground floor, is a contemporary take on a traditional lobby bar, offering all-day light bites, brews from local coffee bean roasters and pastries for breakfast, before morphing to a live music and evening drinks spot with a Blue Mountains backdrop.

The biggest conferencing facilities in western Sydney

With a captivating design both inside and out, state-of-the-art technology, and inspiring culinary options from Executive Chef Colin Chun, the adjoining WSCC is an organiser’s dream for conferences, events, formal dinners and wedding celebrations.

The 1,000-seat capacity, 1,250sqm conference centre comprises flexible spaces that can change quickly with technical ease.

Thanks to its elite in-house and all-wireless audiovisual technology and smart wall mechanics, it can transition from a mixed rooms layout to a single-room formal dinner, in less than an hour.

The inspiring event space features a column-free design and boasts 6.8 metre high ceilings, complete with four tailored room configurations, including Conference, Banquet, Cocktail and Expos, which can fit up to 80 booths.

A terrace adjoining the function and pre-function spaces creates a spill-over space above the central landscape area that can be utilised for pre-event cocktails. The central lawn is an inviting escape for relaxation, recreation and pre-event activities while immersed in nature while lobby lounge and bar can serve innovative cocktails and barista coffee made from Allpress beans.
