In keeping with the Westin’s philosophy to incorporate natural surroundings into even the most urban of its developments, The Westin Brisbane showcases floor to ceiling windows throughout its various venues, creating an abundance of natural light and merging the outdoor surroundings with the interior decor.

A health and wellness focus is prevalent throughout the hotel with a dedicated two-floor wellness centre offering a fully equipped WestinWORKOUT® fitness studio andHeavenly® Spa – Westin’s first in Australia offering signature treatments for mind and body. The hotel’s swimming pool will be situated adjacent to the fitness centre, with stretch and balance classes taking place on the 400 square metre podium around the pool deck.  Guests can also take advantage of the hotel’s exclusive ‘Run Concierge’, a resident running buddy for guests looking to maintain their fitness whilst on the road.

Four onsite dining venues include two signature restaurants, a lounge bar and a pool bar – complete with Brisbane’s only swim-up bar. Each will complement the health and wellness aspects, offering menus which incorporate fresh, local ingredients in classic styles.

An ideal setting for functions, the hotel boasts more than 930 square metres of conference and event space, equipped with cutting edge technology providing a dynamic space for guests to thrive and engage in thoughtful and stimulating meetings and events. The Ballroom, breakout rooms, pre-function area and restaurant are located on the same floor to optimise collaboration and maximize interaction.

The AUD$200 million hotel is part of a mixed-use development called Mary Lane, which will offer an array of vibrant dining venues and stylish residences, in the heart of the central business district.
