Why it's worth checking out

W Brisbane is a five-star hotel in Milton, Brisbane, offering a stay that combines accommodation, dining, drinks, wellness and event facilities under one roof. The property has 312 rooms, including 32 suites, with views described as stretching across the Brisbane River towards South Bank and Mount Coot-tha. Room categories range from Standard King and Standard Double rooms to Studio, Urban and Supreme King suites, giving guests a choice of more compact stays or larger spaces designed around the view.

The suites are the clearest signature feature. The 32 recently updated suites are presented as spacious, highly individual spaces influenced by Queensland design and Brisbane’s river setting. Features named by the hotel include a stocked MixBar, touchscreen technology, large 10-gallon drum bathtubs, plush robes and panoramic river outlooks. The overall design draws on the city’s history, Australiana and the movement of the Brisbane River, with curved forms and a bold contemporary style used throughout the property.

There is plenty to do without leaving the hotel. The Lex is the signature restaurant, while Living Room Bar provides a setting for cocktails. WET Deck is a rooftop pool area with a cocktail bar and a pool described as operating 24 hours a day. AWAY Spa adds a dedicated wellness option, with the hotel also referring to Vitality Mineral Pools in its imagery and experiences. Guests can purchase vouchers for stays and experiences at AWAY Spa, The Lex, Living Room Bar and WET Deck, making the property relevant for a special occasion as well as an overnight booking.

For groups and business travellers, W Brisbane has more than 1,100 square metres of event space supported by audiovisual facilities. Its Whatever/Whenever service is intended to arrange personalised requests, with the hotel giving examples such as helicopter trips to Byron Bay, luxury-box rugby viewing and professional surfing lessons. That mix of accommodation, dining, wellness and event space makes W Brisbane suited to couples seeking a more design-led city stay, groups celebrating together, business events and travellers who want several on-site options. Solo guests can also use the hotel as a base, with the bar, restaurant, spa and pool offering ways to spend time on property.
