Locally-Inspired with Global Appeal
Designed by world-renowned Zaha Hadid Architects, W Macau – Studio City takes inspiration from the glamor of 1950s Hollywood, with rich detailing, geometries and contemporary representations of Macau's unique East-meets-West culture and history. Blue and white waves swirl across the Welcome Desks, wall structures feature picturesque seashores and mirrored ceilings to create wondrous perspectives of undersea scenes.
The design of the hotel's 557 distinct guestrooms and suites takes its cue from classical cinema as well as Macau's maritime history. Ranging in size from 37 to 258 sqm, all 430 rooms and 127 suites offer charming views of bustling Cotai or the city. All rooms feature a Bluetooth sound system, so guests can enjoy their favorite playlists as they craft drinks at their signature in-room W Mix Bar.
