Goddess getaway

Four Seasons Hotel Sydney blooms with Fleurs de Villes FEMME.

10 August 2022

Four Seasons Hotel Sydney invites guests to stop and smell the roses during Sydney’s Fleurs de Villes FEMME exhibition featuring sensory experiences fit for a goddess.

Guests can gain respite in the most indulgent suite surrounded by flowers or spend the afternoon with a floral-themed high tea and a leisurely stroll to the Royal Botanic Gardens, available from 19 to 28 August.

The Presidential Suite will bloom into a garden providing an oasis for all gods and goddesses. Unwind in a rose-petal-filled bath surrounded by a cascading flower wall while looking over sparkling Sydney harbour.

What is more luxurious than a bath with a view? A bath with a glass of rosé or perhaps a customised cocktail prepared in the new in-room trolley by Grain.

The feminine fragrance Delina by Parfum de Marly enhances the bath amenities, providing an overall sensory experience.

Guests can enjoy a range of sensory experiences in August.

Inspired by the Greek goddesses of the seasons, two local florists have crafted a beautiful artistic pair: Demeter, the goddess of grain and agriculture, and her daughter Persephone, better known as the creator of the seasons.

Persephone returns to the world each spring, and flowers instantly bloom wherever she steps, which creates an ethereal experience.

The unique exhibition of Fleurs de Villes FEMMES blends luxury floral couture and fresh blooms with bespoke floral-dressed mannequins appearing in the Royal Botanic Garden. At the same time, the Goddess Persephone is perched in the hotel lobby.

Guests can enjoy any of the following sensory experiences starting from 19 August 2022.

The Garden Goddess suite is available for exclusive booking for any goddess looking for a quiet respite in the clouds.
