Government House Sydney welcomes visitors to the House and magnificent grounds of one of Australia's oldest buildings.
Government House Sydney and its grounds were opened to the public in 1996 under the care of the Historic Houses Trust. In December 2013, Government House resumed its role as the official Residence for the Governor of New South Wales.

Government House Sydney is situated in an important historic garden with exotic trees, shrubs, carriageways, paths and terraces overlooking Sydney Harbour.
The ground floor State Rooms include the dining room, drawing room and ballroom. These contain an outstanding collection of nineteenth and twentieth-century furnishings and decoration that reflect changing styles and the differing tastes of the Governors and their wives. The first floor includes State Apartments that were used by the Governor, visiting members of the Royal Family and other Heads of State.
