Set on the riverside in Brisbane, Australia, the new W Hotel was designed by local architects DBI, Nic Graham, Fabio Ongarato and Amanda love.

Staying true the hotel chain's original styles, the design team decided to add an almost psychedelic vibe with uniquely bold patterns, textiles and color schemes. Most of the interior is made up of [timber river reeds](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/balmoral-hillside-house) that add a unique texture to line the reception staircase and weaves throughout the corridors. The lobby restaurant serves high-end food that pairs beautifully with the interior design, serving local fare including Spanner crab, green mango salads and even house-made sriracha.

Offering a unique twist from the chain, the new W Hotel in Brisbane has multiple [high-end amenities](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/hotel-hans) and a one-of-a-kind interior design to create an amazing guest experience.
