I don't have a photo, but the 'M' in the Mariott logo lights up in red at night now.

Two quick photos from today.

I'm glad the new vehicle entrance is not excessively wide.

Ok my OCD is in overdrive.
Why is there a horizontal strut missing on one of the lower floors?

There's no missing struts. The loads from the upper floors are transferred to the columns via the larger beams just above the driveways to prevent vehicle access being obstructed.

I think he means on the glass above the entrance there is one missing.

The Marriot was formally opened today but I've not been able to find any information about restoration works to the GPO. Feels like it should've been a planning condition to commence simultaneously so we don't end up with another decaying heritage building.

Images of the rooms should be released shortly on their website, I'll post them here.

Apparently, there's a room which is $4,500 per night :sly:

It's a luxury hotel, these prices are normal. If you want something for $200 or less you'll need to settle for an apartment at the iStay precinct.
