Heritage Accommodation Leeton — The Gilded Globe

If you’re searching for heritage accommodation in Leeton that captures the town’s iconic Art Deco charm, then you’ve found the perfect place. The Gilded Globe is quaint, quirky and full of character as far as heritage apartments go. Named after the adjoining Globe Theatre, which was built in the same year as Renown and featured an open-air picture theatre, imagine Liane and James’ delight when they discovered hundreds of discarded peanut shells and bottle caps under the floorboards from movies played last century! The Gilded Globe studio is located at the rear of the building and features Renown’s original polished floorboards, laid more than 100 years ago. It features a bold but soothing jungle aesthetic, with lots of texture and plenty of deco appeal.

Amenities:

  • Cook up a storm in a small but perfectly formed kitchenette, including a combination wall oven and microwave, fridge and Nespresso coffee machine (as well as everything else you’d expect from cutlery to cocktail glasses!). Please note, this apartment doesn’t have a dishwasher.

  • Get ready for a night on the town in a modern deco bathroom, with Sheridan bath towels and quality body products (shower only, no bath).

  • Kick back and relax at the two-seater dining table in the kitchen, on the full-size couch at the foot of your bed or simply pull up the bedsheets and watch all your favourites on the Smart TV.

  • Conjure up stories about your very own hallway to nowhere, complete with images of the original Renown Refreshment Rooms and adjoining buildings from c1913 - 1920.
