W Sydney

W Sydney, rising above Darling Harbour with its undulating glass façade, has become one of the city’s most recognisable landmarks. The property brings W’s global lifestyle philosophy to Australia’s largest city, merging bold design, high-energy programming and waterfront views.

Marriott International Hotel

Design by HASSELL takes inspiration from Sydney’s relationship with water, expressed in curving architecture, reflective surfaces and a colour palette that shifts with light. Interiors amplify this dynamism with vibrant tones, sculptural furniture and playful art installations. Guest rooms feature floor-to-ceiling views, advanced technology and bathrooms that double as statement spaces, with oversized tubs and dramatic lighting.

Dining is diverse and distinctive. BTWN, the signature restaurant, draws from Sydney’s multicultural culinary fabric, while 2AM: dessertbar by Janice Wong elevates pastry into performance. The Living Room bar and WET Deck pool lounge embody the brand’s social energy, shifting seamlessly from daytime relaxation to evening vibrancy.

Wellness and lifestyle offerings include an AWAY Spa, FIT gym and an outdoor infinity pool with panoramic harbour views. Music, fashion and art collaborations are embedded in the programming, reinforcing the hotel’s identity as both accommodation and stage.

Service reflects the brand’s “Whatever/Whenever” ethos: confident, creative and unafraid of personality. Staff are trained as connectors, ensuring that experiences feel dynamic and individually tailored.

W Sydney is more than a hotel — it is an emblem of the city’s energy, boldness and global outlook, delivered through design and hospitality that revels in spectacle.
