About the Hotel - W Melbourne

W Melbourne is the rebel between the streets, sitting in the heart of the Melbourne CBD on the iconic Flinders Lane, the luxury hotel takes its design cues from Australia’s cultural capital and providing the back-lane entrance keys to what’s New/Next in the city. Extending the laneway culture inside, 294 bold rooms and suites peel back the layers and revel in the city’s history. There are five electric and daring bars and restaurants within the hotel, plus over 800 square metres of ultra-modern event space. W Melbourne is set to be the place to see and be seen in.

About the Department

The Welcome Desk emerges from the ground as if the laneway extends in and is accompanied by bold design styled by the streets that will ignite our guests desire to go further, go longer and hit repeat. As a central part of our service team, they will rebelliously rewrite the rules on how to deliver guest experiences, they know Melbourne like the back of their hand and are focused on going above and beyond to exceed expectations.

Friendly, unscripted, real and connected, the Whatever/Whenever service team assist in making any request a reality. Our Whatever/Whenever Talent will know Melbourne like the back of their hand and are focused on going above and beyond to exceed expectations.

With design nods to Melbourne’s laneways and Batman’s lair, our guests will be arriving in style and stealing the scene when they pull up in Wheels. Our Wheels talent put their spin on the norm, helping to ramp up the experience for guests as they arrive and depart via WHEELS.
