Cookie Policy
The cookies this site sets, what each one does, and how to control them from your browser or our consent banner.
We set three kinds of cookies: consent memory, session helpers and anonymous analytics.
There are no advertising cookies and nothing that follows you to other websites.
Clear site data in your browser to reset every choice — the consent banner simply asks again.
Cookies are small text files a website stores on your device. We use a deliberately short list — enough to remember your choices and understand how the site is used, and nothing that follows you around the web.
01
What cookies do here
Cookies let the site remember the consent you gave on the banner, keep forms working between steps, and tell us — in aggregate — which pages people read.
They do not give us access to your device, your other browsing, or information you never typed into this site.
02
The cookies we set
cookies-accepted — remembers your choice on the consent banner. Lasts 12 months.
Session storage — keeps multi-step requests coherent while you fill them. Cleared when the browser tab closes.
Analytics — anonymous page-view measurement: which pages load, how long visits last. No advertising identifiers are set by this site.
03
Managing your choices
You can withdraw consent at any time by clearing site data in your browser — the banner will appear again on your next visit.
Every modern browser lets you block or delete cookies entirely. Doing so will not break this site's content, though the form's multi-step memory and the banner preference will not persist.
04
Third-party cookies
The embedded Google Maps frame on the contacts page is served by Google and may set its own cookies under Google's privacy policy. The map only loads if you visit that page.
Font libraries (Font Awesome, Google Fonts) and the Tailwind and AOS libraries are loaded from public CDNs; these requests expose your IP to those providers as any web request does.
05
Retention
Consent choices persist for twelve months. Analytics data is aggregated and retained for twenty-six months. Session data disappears when the tab closes.
Cookie identifiers are not linked to your booking records.
06
Changes and contact
If the cookies we set change, this page and the banner text update together.
Questions: [email protected] or +61 2 9777 9000.
What this means for your booking
For a guest it means the site remembers your banner choice, keeps the form coherent between steps and measures pages anonymously — and that is the whole list.
Keep a copy
Every booking confirmation references this document. Print it from your browser, or ask the desk and we'll email a dated PDF of the version in force on your booking date.
In force from 5 January 2026
The date on this page is the date the document took effect. Bookings always follow the version in force at the time they were made.
Material changes are announced
When a clause changes in a way that affects guests, the change is flagged on this page for ninety days — not quietly swapped.
Older versions on request
Superseded versions are archived and sent on request within two business days — useful when a dispute turns on wording.
