OT - Night arrivals in SYD & hotel rec facilities
Completely OT I know - but my tenuous link, is that this relates to arriving in Sydney at 9:40pm on a QF link flight, and departing again the following morning on QF, a trip I regularly do. Are there any hotels in Sydney that have pool/spa/sauna facilities that actually stay open after 10pm? I've tried several and it seems that 9/9:30 is closing time for most. I know in ADL you can at the Rendevous Allegra, but hey, ADL is a big international city with jetsetters from all around the world, whereas SYD is just a tinpot backwater

It was legal to have fun in MEL until as recently as the 1930s, but the Churches put an end to all that.

You could always have a dip in Botany Bay. 
I often stay at the Novotel BLS and while the signs etc indicate pool clusure at 9pm, I have often seen it open as late as 11:30 on warm nights. No gaurantees though.
