The new hotel will be the first time the brand has had a presence in WA.
Art Series' foray into WA comes in the form of a $90 million hotel developed by George Atzemis at 900 Hay Street, Perth.
The 27 storey hotel is dedicated to Australia's contemporary artists, with the fundamental design concept of the 250-room hotel drawing inspiration from its incoming namesake artist, with custom furnishings and original artworks and prints adorning the walls and hallways.
The hotel will also be home to a new international food and beverage spot, serving Mediterranean cuisine and cocktails. This venue will be centred around the hotel's pool area on level one, right above Hay Street.
Accor chief operating officer Simon McGrath says Art Series is fast becoming a major brand for the company nationally.
"This announcement reflects the continued expansion and evolution of Australia's only boutique hotel brand creating art inspired experiences for guests," says McGrath.
"This Art Series hotel will be a truly world-class asset, which will help underpin a broader economic contribution to Perth."
The building is currently undergoing an extensive internal fit-out, due for completion in September 2019.
The Art Series Perth joins the brand's nine other hotels in Melbourne, Adelaide and Brisbane.
