Indulge your love of Instagram-friendly hotels across New South Wales, where spectacular scenery complements some of the state’s most visually appealing places to stay. While you may recognise some of these stays beyond Sydney from your social feeds, there may be a few you haven’t yet discovered …

Embrace the playful elegance of Osborn House, Southern Highlands |@osbornhouse_

Be charmed by the unique feel of Osborn House, a 22-room boutique hotel surrounded by serene bushland and lush gardens in the Southern Highlands, less than two hours’ drive southwest of Sydney. Train your lens on the English countryside-style elegance of the suites and garden rooms or lean into the bohemian vibe of the cabin rooms with their timber-panelled walls, log-burning fireplace and outdoor bath, with more Insta-worthy design features to uncover at onsite restaurants George’s and Dinah’s.

Find your urban groove at QT Newcastle | @qtnewcastle

Rediscover the joy of a hip urban hotel stay at QT Newcastle, housed in a historic building in Newcastle’s East End, where the QT brand’s signature celebration of quirk is guaranteed to light up your social feeds. From its vibrant pops of colour referencing the city’s rich heritage (think: iron-ore reds and maritime blues) to the theatrical lighting in the rooftop bar, uncover no shortage of photo opps during a sophisticated stay at this conveniently central boutique hotel.

Indulge a love of architecture at Dovecote, Gerringong | @dovecote

Step into a ready-made photoshoot at Dovecote, a luxurious self-catering retreat rising above the lush green paddock of an oceanfront property in Gerringong on the NSW South Coast. Fill your camera roll with the bold, architectural angles of the main house, The Headland, complete with four bedrooms, an indoor wood-burning fireplace, enclosed courtyard with fire pit, swimming pool, gym and private beach access. Or get a little cosier in The Range, the equally photogenic two-bedroom also located on the property.

Reclaim your calm at Blackbird Byron, Mullumbimby | @blackbirdbyron

Gaze out across lush, rolling farmlands towards Cape Byron at Australia’s most easterly tip from your elevated perch at Blackbird Byron, an adults-only bed and breakfast tucked up in the Mullumbimby hinterland. Embrace the exclusivity of this relaxed-luxe getaway just a 35-minute drive from Byron Bay; its five unique, freestanding pavilions born to dazzle your Instagram followers. Explore a whole new set of dreamy angles while chilling out at the retreat’s serene mineral infinity pool.

Reach for the stars at Bubbletent Australia, Blue Mountains | @bubbletentaustralia

Prepare to fall in love with this trio of magical clear domes overlooking the Capertee Valley in the Blue Mountains, a 2.5-hour drive northwest of Sydney. Discover photo opportunities aplenty in and around your Bubbletent, from the chic interior setup with queen bed, goose-down pillows and a bubble ensuite, to the romantic outdoor wood-fired hot tub, backdropped by vast, soul-stirring views of the Capertee Valley by day, and a sparkling canopy of stars by night.

Breathe in the fresh country air at Kimo Estate, Gundagai | @kimoestate

Revel in the minimalist luxury of the three architecturally designed eco huts at Kimo Estate, scenically positioned among the rolling hills of a vast farm just outside Gundagai, four hours’ drive southwest of Sydney. Snap an obligatory selfie in your outdoor hot tub before exploring other angles at your stylish A-frame hut, not least the energising views across the Murrumbidgee River flats.

Pose poolside at Halcyon House, Cabarita Beach | @_halcyonhouse

Lean into the luxe Hamptons-meets-the-Mediterranean vibe at Halcyon House in Cabarita on the Tweed Coast, where your highly ‘grammable boutique hotel room lies just steps from the sea. Take your social media followers to the French Riviera via the Halcyon House pool, with its ivory umbrellas and blue-and-white striped loungers. Lap up more vibrant azure tones along with mouth-watering contemporary dishes at the hotel’s restaurant Paper Daisy.

Soak up the serenity at Sierra Escape, Mudgee | @sierraescape

Sink into an outdoor (or indoor) tub with room for two at Sierra Escape in the peaceful hills of Mudgee wine country, a 3.5-hour drive northwest of Sydney, where five luxurious, secluded glamping tents tempt romantics — and ‘grammers. Each tent also comes with an indoor fireplace and outdoor fire pit, paving the way for more cosy moments and photo opportunities.

Live out your log-cabin fantasies at Moonbah Hut, Jindabyne | @moonbahhut

Escape to one of the most social media-friendly corners of the Snowy Mountains at Moonbah Hut near Jindabyne, where two secluded log huts — Moonbah Lake Hut and Moonbah River Hut — are just as photogenic when covered in snow or surrounded by summertime greenery. Capture cosy moments inside as you cuddle up by the stone fireplace, and explore your hut’s scenic setting with your smartphone at the ready to snap soothing high-country vistas and unexpected wildlife encounters.
