W Sydney has unveiled its luxury penthouse and five top-level suites, taking its accommodation offering to new heights following its opening late last year.
The Level 27 Extreme Wow Suite spans 202sqm and features panoramic waterfront views and a bold design that incorporates the ‘marine chic’ narrative seen throughout the hotel rooms.
Designed by Bowler James Brindley, the penthouse suite takes inspiration from the HMAS Onslow, one of six Oberon-class submarines commissioned by the Royal Australian Navy that now resides in Darling Harbour as part of the National Maritime Museum.
The suite features a seven-metre catwalk bar crafted from Nero Marquina marble, marine-inspired lighting and soft, sculptured furniture in reference to a submarine’s curvilinear design, and gradated carpets to mimic an ocean wave.
The unique crescent-shaped guest bedroom features an adjoining walk-in robe, while a second circular bathtub is positioned by the window for guests to make the most of the water views.
“W Sydney’s interior designers, Bowler James Brindley, masterfully designed the Extreme Wow Suite to intrigue visitors with larrikin-inspired design moments and a unique take on the ‘marine chic’ design narrative of the hotel’s guestrooms. The result is unlike any other in Sydney; the Extreme Wow Suite is the ultimate extrovert,” said W Sydney General Manager, Titus Rosier.
The Extreme Wow Suite also features a spirit bar and private cellar, with the hotel sommelier on hand to provide recommendations and host private wine tastings and spirit flights in the suite.
A state-of-the-art Hi-Fi music system allows guests to control the music in five independent zones throughout the suite.
The suite will also cater to bespoke events for up to 20 seated guests or 50 standing for a cocktail-style event.
The five upper-level Wow Suites – ranging in size from 112sqm to 125sqm – also follow the signature submarine motif with eclectic interiors, and offer floor-to-ceiling views of Darling Harbour.
These one-bedroom suites feature generous bar, dining and lounge spaces, walk-in robe, and a second soaking tub overlooking the harbour.
While no two suites are the same, each is equipped with the Hi-Fi music system, a cellar list of premium Champagnes and wines, and a well-stocked spirit bar, with sommelier guidance available.
