About this space

Set within the storied walls of a former 1800s hotel, No. 92 is a richly textured, heritage-listed space in the heart of Glebe, NSW. Evocative and highly styled, this Victorian Georgian gem offers an immersive setting that feels at once historic, layered, and visually intimate—ideal for content creators, filmmakers, and photographers seeking old-world charm with a tactile modern edge.

Originally the Waratah Hotel, the building’s past is not only preserved but celebrated. Every room at No. 92 is detailed with restored heritage features—from marble and iron fireplaces to ornate cornices, decorative plasterwork, and antique mirrors. These elements lend an authentic period feel, while the inclusion of contemporary design gestures and artful flourishes gives the space a fresh relevance for today’s creative briefs.

Downstairs, the main salon-style dining area is wrapped in a custom timber banquette clad in deep jade green leather, curling through the room beneath a bespoke mural by artist Angie Pai. Her abstract landscapes add colour and mood, creating a layered visual backdrop that’s equally effective for fashion, editorial, and lifestyle shoots. The walls are finished in textured Venetian plaster and lime wash, catching the light in subtle, expressive ways.

Vintage lighting, hammered glass, and carefully sourced antique furniture add to the cinematic quality. From the undulating mural to the bar’s custom metal liquor cabinet and weathered wrought iron courtyard pieces, every detail has been chosen to age gracefully—making each shot feel lived-in, storied, and transportive.

Upstairs, the tone shifts into something darker and more theatrical. An amoebic ottoman anchors the private dining room alongside dramatically veined marble tables, autumnal carpets, and moody upholstery. A Dutch-style still life, layered ornaments, and pendant lighting complete the scene, giving the upstairs level a residential intimacy perfect for editorial or character-led storytelling.

Located in Glebe within the City of Sydney, No. 92 is shoot-ready and visually rich across every zone. Whether you’re capturing period details, hosting a small-scale film production, or seeking the kind of layered, atmospheric charm only a true heritage space can offer, this location delivers with elegance and quiet drama.
