Lord Nelson Hotel, Millers Point, Historic brewery hotel in Millers Point, Australia.
The Lord Nelson Hotel is a historic brewery hotel in Millers Point, Sydney, built with sandstone blocks from Observatory Hill and featuring arched doorways and timber windows. It provides accommodation rooms, a restaurant using local ingredients, and spaces for private or public events.
The hotel was constructed between 1814 and 1815 by James Dempsey and remains the oldest operating licensed hotel in Sydney. Its architecture was refined in the 1830s with smooth-faced sandstone and decorative parapets added to the original structure.
The hotel operates an onsite brewery using traditional methods, demonstrating how historical beer-making practices continue in modern hospitality. Visitors can observe this craft directly as part of their experience.
The hotel is centrally located in Sydney and easily accessible, offering rooms, dining, and event spaces for visitors. Since it operates as an active hotel and brewery, it is best to check opening times before visiting.
The hotel houses a working brewery that produces specialty beers available for tasting on the premises. This makes it a rare example of an active brewery hotel combining lodging with craft beer production.
