Melbourne’s first luxury lifestyle hotel with its rebellious Flinders Lane address is now open. W Melbourne takes its design cues from the streets of Australia’s cultural capital, holding the back-lane entrance keys to what’s New/Next in the city, revealing a playground where the early risers to the late-night revellers can turn up the tracks. Extending the laneway culture inside, 294 bold rooms and suites peel back the layers and revel in the city’s history. 828 square metres of ultra-modern event space sets the stage for epic events. Four restaurants and bars will amp up the experience; with Warabi set to shake up Japanese dining, Lollo to take you from day, night to beyond under the culinary creative direction of Adam D’Sylva, Curious is the the bar to see and be seen in and Culprit will be a café come bar that serves up your double shot latte, to an afternoon spritz. Detox in our state-of-the-art FIT gym then retox with a dip and a sip in our WET® pool. Detox in our state-of-the-art FIT gym, then retox with a dip and sip in WET® the pool. Both are located on level 14 with panoramic views across the city skyline and are available to you 24/7. WET transform to an Adult Only (+16 years) space from 5PM to 6AM.

Tripadvisor’s approach to reviews
Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.
When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.
Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.

It was everything expected of a W property. Professional, friendly, efficient, excellent - what more can I say? This is the attention to detail we have come to expect as a result of the exemplary service at W hotels around the world. W Melbourne did not disappoint.

Room too dark, lobby music too loud that i could barely hear what the front desk lady was saying during check-in. Hotel was too busy that they didnt do turn down service on some days. On one day, the room wasnt even made up at 330pm until i had to call them. Shower area doesnt have a door so shower water will be splattered to sink area even though a floor mat is provided. Will not recommend nor return.

Terrific hotel with friendly and helpful staff. Amenities were great and most importantly, it was clean and nice. Only negative comment I can make is about the pillows, they are too thick which gave me neck and shoulder pain. Other than that, I would certainly recommend and stay at the W Melbourne again.

My wife and I came to the W recently to celebrate our 1 year wedding anniversary. We absolutely love it here. This company just gets it. Every detail is immaculate, from the service, to the bedrooms and amenities. We will be back again and again

I was a bit concerned by some of the previous reviews but thought I’d stay anyway as they were likely to just be teething problems as the hotel had just recently opened. Glad I did as it was an amazing stay from start to finish - the service, the amazing upgraded room, the breakfast (truly fantastic and better than the W Melbourne!), location and facilities all excellent. Looking forward to staying again soon.

My stay at W Melbourne showcased unparalleled dining experiences and benefited from an unbeatable location, situated conveniently close to the free tram stop. The culinary offerings across breakfast, lunch, and dinner were simply outstanding during my three-night stay. The service at Lotto restaurant was warm and welcoming, creating a homely atmosphere. The in-room dining service was also top-notch. Regarding the rooms, each displayed remarkable design elements. I experienced both the Fantastic Suites and Wow Suites, each exuding a distinct design aesthetic. However, the dim lighting, challenging to control, was a drawback. A major issue I encountered was that both suites faced a construction site, providing a discomfortingly close view of workers, akin to having Spider-Man at your window. Despite raising this concern, the hotel staff declined to relocate me to another side of the hotel, leaving me puzzled. Consequently, I had to keep the curtains drawn throughout. Despite my high expectations, W Melbourne didn't entirely meet them, especially due to the room's unexpected proximity to the construction site.

Everything about the stay was fantastic - beautiful hotel with wonderful amenities. The service by the staff was also great. Was only shocked that ‘room service’ would cost an additional $7? Didn’t think that was normal and given the price of the food didn’t think it was fair either. Why the additional charge? That said, everything else was fantastic! That said, I think I will definitely visit again and maybe skip the room service option. Would have also liked something more for kids to enjoy themselves like a kid’s pool or something but these are small things.

We stayed at the W for a night in the city and it did not disappoint. The room was stylish and modern, with the wall detail and column art particular highlights. While we didn't get to visit the very cool-looking cocktail bar, the coffee shop was excellent and well-placed for a day out. The pool deck was particularly impressive up on the 14th floor, with sweeping city views, and all of the staff we dealt with at the front desk were attentive, polite, friendly and helpful. We look forward to our next visit!

Loved the room, was allowed an early checkin with Chandon welcome drinks. Great service and really cool decor. Curious bar was a great option and mini bar was very cool. Could be a bit brighter in the room but very minor adjustment.

What a delight staying at W Melbourne! Our room was stunning with such moody lighting and quirkiness. The facilities both in the room and the hotel were excellent. The below ground bar provided excellent service, food and beverages. The room amenities were perfect. Such quality
