The 50 Best Hotel Openings of 2025

Mondrian Gold Coast, Burleigh Heads, Australia

Keys: 208
Design: Alexander & CO., Fraser & Partners, and Studio Carter
Why we love it: Based around the concept “formed by the sea, shaped by the wind,” the hotel reflects the natural rhythm of Burleigh Heads through earthy tones, sculptural forms, and coastal textures. Designed for both travelers and the local community, it features 20 flexible event spaces spread across four floors.
