Architecturally designed by Fitzpatrick and Partners, with interiors by Woods Bagot, the West Hotel’s distinctive character offers a reassuring taste of splendour in Sydney’s newest cultural hub and appeals to curious corporate travellers seeking an authentic Sydney experience. Modern classic design elements have been skilfully crafted throughout the interiors, curating a palette that reflects the character of Sydney Harbour and its natural surrounds, complemented with rich, textured hues. Bespoke artworks, graphic floors, sculptural lighting and natural stones are some of the design features that pair edgy industrial detailing with polished sophistication.

Each of the 182 bedrooms include state of the art in-room entertainment systems and practical work areas for the busy corporate traveller. The West Hotel is well suited for mixing business and pleasure as it includes four suites, an elegant restaurant and bar, a fully equipped gym and a private meeting room.

Corporate and leisure travellers are demanding a distinctly different hotel stay, with many opting for a boutique, personalised and well-located hotel experience.
