Multiplex has completed construction of West Hotel, Curio Collection by Hilton, which marks Australia’s first Curio hotel. 

Located at 65 Sussex St. in Sydney, the 182-key hotel was designed by Fitzpatrick + Partners, with interiors by Wood Bagot. The property features spacious suites, a restaurant, open air garden atrium, private meeting and dining room, bar and fully-equipped fitness center. West Hotel features a botanical theme throughout with a three-story internal garden atrium courtyard, white flower motif in the lobby and floral-inspired carpet design in the guest rooms. A signature feature of the hotel is its geometric façade with 333 individual panels of glass used for its construction, the first of its kind in Australia. Construction began in October of 2016 and was completed in less than 13 months.

“We are thrilled to deliver the first Curio Collection by Hilton hotel in Australia in partnership with both M&L Hospitality and Hilton Worldwide,” said David Ghannoum, regional managing director at Multiplex, in prepared remarks.

In July, Curio Collection by Hilton reached another milestone, opening The Aleph Rome Hotel, Curio’s first property in Rome.
