W Miami, formerly Viceroy Miami, is a luxury hotel located in Brickell, Miami and part of the three tower mixed-use Icon Brickell complex. The hotel, located at 485 Brickell Avenue, opened in 2009 and contains several restaurants, pools, and lounges.[1][2]

The hotel opened in 2009 and was designed by Arquitectonica, a Miami-based international architecture, interior design, and urban planning company.[5] In 2011, the Viceroy was bought by Pebblebrook Hotel Trust for $36.5 million.[6]
W Miami is one of three towers in the Icon Brickell project. The 10-acre development is located in a waterfront property in the urban Brickell neighborhood of Greater Downtown Miami. Located in Tower 3, W Miami, consists of 148 rooms and suites, 5 commercial units, and 38 condominium hotel units in the 50-story building.[7]
