Qantas First Class Lounge

No wonder this first class lounge is rated as a top world lounge. First, you are greeted at the hallway entrance by a well-dressed man who confirms that yes, you are indeed flying first class internationally. The front desk was efficient and pleasant, and then you choose one of the countless comfortable leather chairs, well spaced in separate cubicles, each with its own wait staff. Plug-ins are only available in the business section.
There is an open bar, but no buffet, only service from a full menu that is brought to your seat. I had an omelet made to order, and my husband had the full English breakfast. The sourdough toast was extraordinary with 6 choices of jam, including vegemite.
Floor to ceiling windows overlook the runways plus a spectacular view of Sydney.

This is far and away one of the top airline lounges I've ever visited.

Access is for first class passengers on Qantas or a OneWorld partner or OneWorld emerald members. It's very easy to find after clearing immigration and security by following the signs up the escalator.

The entry hallway has a beautiful wall full of green plants and flowers that make you almost forget you're in an airport.

Inside you will find a beautiful, contemporary, large lounge with varied seating areas and a great view of the tarmac outside. There is also a spa inside offering complimentary treatments.

The true highlight is the full service restaurant with an extensive menu and professional servers in white jackets. Who doesn't love a top notch restaurant with a menu without prices because everything is complimentary? And don't forget the extensive cocktail menu with top notch champagne choices.

I tried the pumpkin soup, and we shared the salt and pepper squid. Both were excellent. The squid particularly had a wonderful crunchy coating that was not too oily or greasy, and the squid was not rubbery at all. We wanted to save room for the fabulous Qantas inflight cuisine, but we had to try deconstructed pavlova
that this lounge restaurant is famous for. A delicious choice that was almost too beautiful to eat!

You absolutely must visit this lounge if you're flying out of Sydney, and it's worth getting to the airport early to enjoy.

Outstanding food and service at this lounge! I made it in time for breakfast, had vegemite with Greek yoghurt and a Spanish frittata.

You have to experience this to understand how laughable that this is offered as a first class service. Good luck finding it.

We were flying from LA to Sydney and had the pleasure of going to the lounge! food was plentiful and there was quite a variety. of course, there were lots of beverages! seats are comfy and spread out nicely. It was a positive experience! thank you Quantas! Flight was nice as well!!

Doesn't get much better than this. The size of this lounge is staggering considering the amount of people in it. The food is tremendous but know some offering are a full meal and other 3 bites. As not noted, it's quite easy to over or under order though as everything is gratis, it can be easily remedied.

True first class lounge. The service and food here is ridiculous.

the A la carte menu is great, I went in the morning and they had all your regular western breakfast options... I went with eggs benedict. Plenty of wine and champagne options as well.

They have plenty of seating with huge windows overlooking the runway. There is a spa (I didn't get to try it).

If you have access through Qantas/Oneworld, I highly recommend this lounge over any other in sydney. Great experience!

This is a large, comfy lounge with all the amenities you expect and then some. Excellent service and food...life is good.

It's taking a lot to impress me these days, but I have to say this lounge is the real deal. The fact that I get to order from a menu with several options, my meals and drinks are delivered by a pleasant waitress and not having to tower over a nasty buffet line with unmanaged kids, who don't know whether to pick snacks with their bare hands or not is a winner for me.

Liking the new(ish) first class lounge, he staff are great, the food and wine choices are good and the environment is excellent.

Only couple of points to note is that it is a little out of the way the first time you try and find it; and that the male bathrooms have had a door that is hard to close across both my visits 2 months apart (please fix it already).
