Overview

The Hydro Majestic is described as one of Australia's great historic hotels, standing in the Blue Mountains since 1904 and set in the village of Medlow Bath, with views over the Megalong Valley. It began as the vision of retail innovator Mark Foy, who sought to establish a hydropathic retreat high in the Blue Mountains; construction commenced in 1901 and the hotel opened in 1904 with its own power plant, water supply and modern engineering. Its domes, towers and Art Deco details became signatures of the region's architectural story, and spaces such as the Casino Lobby, Salon du Thé and the Majestic Ballroom continue to host guests. The property offers accommodation, dining, weddings, meetings, celebrations and experiences, and is part of the Worlds Apart collection, a brand of Salter Brothers Hospitality.

History

The Hydro Majestic began as the vision of retail innovator Mark Foy, who sought to establish a hydropathic retreat high in the Blue Mountains. Construction commenced in 1901, and the hotel opened in 1904 with its own power plant, water supply and modern engineering — described as a remarkable achievement for its time. Over the decades, its domes, towers and Art Deco details became signatures of the region's architectural story. The hotel has welcomed travellers, creatives and cultural figures drawn to its setting and hospitality, and its history includes periods of reinvention, times of adversity and years of quiet restoration. Spaces such as the Casino Lobby, Salon du Thé and the Majestic Ballroom carry the echoes of the past while continuing to host new generations of guests. The property extends along the ridge above the valley, offering uninterrupted views across the escarpment.
