Hilton has announced that the Waldorf Astoria Hotels & Resorts brand will make its Australia debut in 2025. Construction is already underway on the Waldorf Astoria Sydney, a 28-floor, 220-key luxury hotel that will open as part of the One Circular Quay mixed-use development. Tokyo-based Kengo Kuma & Associates is set to craft the hotel alongside locally based Crone Architects.
“Hilton is thrilled to partner with AW One Circular Quay for the entry of the Waldorf Astoria brand into Australasia, which marks a significant milestone in the growth of our luxury portfolio,” says Guy Phillips, senior vice president of development, Asia and Australasia for Hilton. “The introduction of Waldorf Astoria to Sydney underscores our development strategy of organically bringing our world-class brands to discerning travelers in key global markets.”
Waldorf Astoria Sydney will be designed to permeate a sense of lightness and calm across elegant and immersive interiors. In addition to 179 guestrooms and 41 suites, the hotel will be home to a spa and the brand’s signature Peacock Alley lounge. F&B options will include two restaurants conceived to honor Sydney’s gastronomic legacy as well as a rooftop bar.
