The hotel opened in 2018 at 81 North Quay, on the edge of the central business district where the river bends toward South Bank. Its 312 rooms and suites take their design cues from the river, with colors that suggest light on water and work by Australian artists throughout. The WET Deck on level four has a heated pool and a bar, and the AWAY Spa adds mineral pools and treatment rooms.
The Lex is the main restaurant, focused on beef and seafood from southeast Queensland, and the Living Room Bar is the place for a drink in the evening. Victoria Bridge is a few minutes away and leads across the river to South Bank's parklands, the Queensland Museum and the Gallery of Modern Art. From Brisbane you can reach the Gold Coast, the Sunshine Coast hinterland and North Stradbroke Island on day trips, or fly on to the southern Great Barrier Reef.
W Brisbane suits couples and younger travelers who like a social hotel with music and a busy bar. It is a city hotel with a nightlife feel, so travelers who want quiet may prefer a smaller property. The airport is about 20 to 30 minutes away by car, depending on traffic.
W Brisbane is a modern hotel on the Brisbane River in the city center, with a rooftop pool deck and views across to South Bank. It suits travelers who want a lively, design-forward city base for a few nights in Queensland before heading to the reef or the coast.
