About The Moat
Designed by artist Christo Gillard, The Moat is tucked beneath the iconic State Library building. Its custom interior pays homage to the heritage nostalgia.
It is a perfect escape away from the hustle and bustle of the city. Enjoy worldly food and wine among 19th Century bluestone walls, our homely courtyard, and the timeless literature housed above.
