With its accommodation, restaurant, bars and venues, conceived and created by award winning interior specialists, Bowler James Brindley, W Sydney’s rooms, suites and ultra-luxe suites are described as setting a new design benchmark for the city.
Echoing the curves and lines of The Ribbon’s exceptional architecture, no two rooms are the same, embracing their asymmetry with sleek, modern décor. The interior palette is inspired by the marine environment, and highlights are the stunning azure bathrooms and walk-in robes punctuated with contrasting colour and inflorescence.
W Sydney General Manager, Craig Seaward, said he was incredibly excited to confirm the opening date.
“There have been delays, but trust me, it will be worth the wait,” he said.
“It’s a luxury hotel with a new perspective, one that not only connects deeply with its host city and its urban setting but is also imbued with a sense of freedom and possibility.
“To cross the threshold of W Sydney will be to enter an exciting new world of creativity, design, culture and connection. We simply can’t wait to welcome our guests.”
