As a Sydney wedding photographer, I absolutely love working at this venue. From it's stunning internal courtyard to it's historical building you are guaranteed to get some truely beautiful wedding photos here. With both outdoor and wet weather options for your ceremony available, they have all bases covered. There are also many other incredible photo opportunities in the CBD or surround area if you feel like venturing out. Would highly recommend venue for your wedding!

The "tour" isn't well signposted, but what a magnificent piece of Australian history to explore!

This old building was originally built as a hospital. When gold was found in New South Wales, it become the first mint in Australia. After 1926, the mint was used by various government departments and planned to be demolished. Eventually the Royal Mint building was listed as cultural heritage alongside the Barracks. The building itself is very old therefore hot and humid in summer.

The beautiful historical building and yet still very well organized. I am loving its architecture, design and decoration. This is one of the best places for event, meeting or private meeting. Having both indoor and outdoor areas.

This place is one of the stops you should do when in the city. While there make sure you check out Hyde Park Barracks next door.

We had our wedding ceremony at the mint. The venue was so beautiful and the SLM Venues staff so great to deal with that we thought it warranted a review for any future couples considering this space. Our original wedding was cancelled by COVID and the original location and company was a nightmare to deal with. We reached out to SLM Venues (who manage The Mint) about another venue in their portfolio that wasn't available but they suggested The Mint - we hadn't even come across it as a wedding venue - it was perfect! The courtyard is STUNNING for a ceremony and having a wet weather back up on site included was amazing peace of mind. We communicated with Rebecca who was just the loveliest most helpful events contact for SLM, a real breath of fresh air after the hell we went through with out original venue. For any couples looking for a wedding location, I think The Mint is one of Sydneys best kept secrets!

As an historical building of great importance, the austerity of the Mint is a stark contrast to the nearby modern skyscrapers that flank Hyde Park and adorn the inner Sydney landscape.

The courtyard of the Mint provides a quaint and romantic outdoor setting for weddings and other social affairs.

Historical building I knew nothing about. I will go back there to spend more time instead of just a wedding

Just wanted to go there for a breath mint. Turns out, to my disappointment, that there wasn't any. Good money still

Massive disappointment, I've been collecting the uncirculated annual sets since they began making them, this year it is a cheap, weird, plastic case shoved in a cardboard sleave that is too tight, and a strange, nonsensical size, that ruins the value of the overall set, why? So ugly and doesn't fit with over 20 years of collecting, don't both calling customer service, they don't know why the change, awful experience, such a disappointment.

The service on the day was impeccable.

The Mint is one of our old world building, going back to the beginnings of Sydney. It's sandstone and beautifully presented and preserved. We saw the Ben Adler string quartet perform in an intimate setting. Amazing performance in a wonderful old world charm building.
