Located in Sydney’s Central Business District, the West Hotel Sydney is set to open this December.

Curio Collection by Hilton will manage Sydney’s newest hotel, the West Hotel Sydney, Curio Collection by Hilton, located at 65 Sussex Street, when it opens this December. The 182-room new-build hotel is due for completion by December 2017.

The newly built West Hotel Sydney features 182 stylish guest rooms, including four spacious suites, a restaurant and bar, a fully equipped gym, and a private meeting/dining room. The property will attribute modern classic design elements. Deep tones and marble accents with a strong botanical theme run throughout – from the open-air central garden atrium and the white waratah flower motif in the lobby to the floral-inspired carpet design in the guest rooms. The hotel will also work with a local Sydney florist to create striking, seasonal arrangements and installations.
