WINNER: Mercure Sydney Potts Point Competition

Wilma Brbot of Melbourne has won our two night getaway at the Mercure Sydney Potts Point, in a competition worth $650, thanks to Accor Hotels. 

Wilma and her partner or friend will stay in a Harbour View room, including breakfast and a historic walking tour of King Cross. 

Mercure Sydney Potts Point is ideally positioned in the heart of the Potts Point and Kings Cross entertainment precinct. This four star hotel features 227 stylishly appointed and modern rooms with new decor to complement the lively surrounds and magnificent Harbour views. Only minutes away from the Sydney CBD, Mercure Sydney Potts Point is ideal for corporate or leisure travelers. Along with a restaurant and bar the hotel features five modern meeting rooms and an open air terrace. 

Having recently undergone a $30 million refurbishment, the Mercure Sydney Potts Point boasts funky, colourful décor and spacious rooms, many with spectacular views over the Opera House and Harbour Bridge, all within one train stop of Martin Place in the city. 

About the Historic Walking Tour: 

This fascinating tour takes you through the colourful history of Kings Cross with its mobsters, murders and mysteries as you follow in the footsteps of notorious criminals, prostitutes and crooked cops. The tour is a great opportunity to hear the real stories behind the characters such as Tilly Devine and Kate Leigh, stand on the site of unsolved mysteries, uncover the secrets of the sly grog and razor gangs and visit the original bar that started the Ibrahim empire.

The Kings Cross "Golden Mile" literally stretches below the Mercure, but you will need to scratch the surface to uncover the street’s notorious past as today the area has been gentrified with trendy restaurants, boutique wine bars and upmarket clubs creating a sophisticated setting for the modern traveller. 

All you have to do is enter our competition below and tell us in 25 words or less how you'd spend your first night out on the town on the Golden Mile. This competition closes on Monday June 4, 2012, and the winner will be announced within 48 hours.

As always, the competition is open to all subscribers to UltimateTravelMagazine.com and anyone can enter as long as you become a subscriber (don't worry your details will be kept safe and not passed on) and you'll be kept up to date with new competitions as they come up.
