A boutique serviced apartment in the heart of Sydney
CHECK AVAILABILITY
Welcome,
Runaways’ Retreat is a boutique serviced apartment in the Sydney's vibrant suburb of Potts Point created in memory of my late uncle Ian, a courageous soul who left England in the 1970s to live life on his own terms in Sydney and called this apartment home. The studio's design reflects the quiet luxury he discovered in Potts Point during the 1970s and ’80s.
Steeped in architectural, cultural, and personal history, the space is rich with stories and character. Original 1930s Art Deco furniture, lovingly restored, sits alongside oil paintings and meaningful keepsakes, all coming together to create a curated space.
Designed with texture, tone, and storytelling in mind, every detail is crafted for your comfort and connection.
your unique experience awaits...
Tucked along a quiet, leafy avenue, Runaways’ Retreat offers a sense of calm just moments from the vibrant rhythm of Potts Point’s dining and nightlife. Still one of Sydney’s most glamorous enclaves, the area blends old-world charm with grand Art Deco buildings, historic terraces, and a lively Sydney Sider spirit.
Runaways’ Retreat isn’t just a place to stay, it’s an experience. Our hospitality is layered with small luxuries: chocolates and sparkling wine on arrival, shower steamers and body scrubs, and romance packages on request.
Whether you’re here for a weekend escape, a business trip, or an extended stay, you’ll find the comfort of home and the refined charm of a truly unique boutique stay
