- Back to black
- Setting
- Club-side King’s Cross
Diamant Hotel provides a wave of boutique relief from Sydney’s glut of city-centre business hotels. Although it’s smartly dressed and perfectly manicured, there’s a party spirit underneath the sleek black decor and hi-tech gadgetry – which is handy, given that it’s right beside the city’s most buzzing nightspots.
