Hotel

Updated: Apr 08, 2026

W Brisbane is a jewel in the crown of Brisbane's high-end accommodation, located on North Quay with sweeping river views across to South Bank.

Renowned for provocative design, iconic Whatever/Whenever service and buzzing Living Rooms, the global W Hotel family offer guests a unique experience which breaks from traditional luxury.

On arrival, a stunning staircase of timber river reeds leads guests to the Welcome Desk and the Living Room (the W brand’s take on the standard hotel lobby).

Earth tones, sedimentary layers, frayed edges and raw beauty inspired by the Australian outback feature throughout the hotel's public spaces, where there is striking colourful artwork from celebrated Australian artists including John Nicholson, Lucas Grogan and Reko Rennie.

Bar inside W Brisbane

W Brisbane offers 312 guestrooms including 32 luxuriant suites, all with river views and the latest in technology and entertainment. In a nod to the hotel's location, the rooms feature a white wall inspired by VJ wall panels found in traditional ‘Queenslander’ homes, as well as a 10-gallon drum ‘outback bath experience’.

The penultimate Extreme Wow Suite (the brand’s modern interpretation of the traditional presidential suite) on Level 33 showcases a jaw-dropping panoramic vista from the river to the mountains and beyond.

When it comes to drinking and dining, W Brisbane offers three fabulous venues:

The Lex - Located on Level 3, W Brisbane’s signature restaurant, The Lex offers a cosmopolitan menu with a focus on fresh produce, natural cooking, and playful twists on classic dishes. Picture a NYC-style grill with a distinctive Brisbane flair. 

Living Room Bar - A serene lounge by day which morphs into a glam cocktail bar by night, where guests can savour an array of handcrafted cocktails every night of the week, and a uniquely Australian high tea served with champagne on weekends. 

The WET® Deck rooftop bar - The place to soak up the heat on stylish sun lounges. By day or night, guests can revel in Queensland’s supreme riverside views with curated cocktails, Champagne, live DJs and Aussie barbeque fare.

Other amenities include a state of the art FIT gym complete with Technogym® equipment and resident Personal Trainers and the AWAY® Spa, featuring a sublime treatment menu of Sodashi™ and Skeyndor™ facials and massages in addition to perfectly pampering beauty treatments. AWAY offers an escape from the outside world with vitality pools, relaxation pods, ‘His and Hers’ salt inhalation chambers and aromatherapy steam rooms to enhance the spa experience.

Nice to know - Guests can take a piece of their stay home from W The Store by Becker Minty, stocked with a treasure chest of hidden gems and collections including handbags, artwork, home decor and fine jewellery.

Good to know - W Brisbane’s P.A.W. (Pets Are Welcome) Program features a custom pet bed and cute “pet in room” sign, toys and treats, food and water bowls.
