After a long wait, W Sydney has officially opened its doors — and we have the inside scoop about what went down at its premiere launch party. 

Join Penny Thomas and Megan French as they unpack the star-studded event, plus we hear what it’s like to stay overnight at the new Darling Harbour property, which is the biggest and boldest W-branded hotel in the world. 

Later on in the episode, we hear from W Hotels vice president and global brand leader George Fleck, who met up with Penny ahead of the hotel’s big premiere party.

He explains why W Sydney was a natural progression for the W brand and what’s to come from the New York-born hotel chain in the future.
