WASP-59 is a K-type main-sequence star about 379 light-years away. The star's age is essentially unconstrained by observations. WASP-59 is slightly depleted in heavy elements, having 70% of the solar abundance of iron. The star produces extremely low levels of ultraviolet light, indicating an absence of flare activity.{{citation|arxiv=1301.6192|title=An Ultraviolet Investigation of Activity on Exoplanet Host Stars|year=2013|doi=10.1088/0004-637X/766/1/9|last1=Shkolnik|first1=Evgenya L.|journal=The Astrophysical Journal|volume=766|issue=1|page=9|bibcode=2013ApJ...766....9S|s2cid=118415788}}

A multiplicity survey in 2015 did not detect any stellar companions to WASP-59.{{citation|arxiv=1507.01938|title=A Lucky Imaging search for stellar companions to transiting planet host stars|year=2015|doi=10.1051/0004-6361/201424091|last1=Wöllert|first1=Maria|last2=Brandner|first2=Wolfgang|last3=Bergfors|first3=Carolina|last4=Henning|first4=Thomas|journal=Astronomy & Astrophysics|volume=575|pages=A23|bibcode=2015A&A...575A..23W|s2cid=119250579}}

Planetary system

In 2012 a transiting hot Jupiter planet b was detected on a tight, mildly eccentric orbit.{{citation|arxiv=1211.0810|title=WASP-52b, WASP-58b, WASP-59b, and WASP-60b: four new transiting close-in giant planets|year=2012|doi=10.1051/0004-6361/201220363|last1=Hébrard|first1=G.|last2=Collier Cameron|first2=A.|last3=Brown|first3=D.

Its equilibrium temperature is {{val|670|35|ul=K}}. The planet is unusually dense for a gas giant, representing an outlier on a mass-radius diagram.{{citation|arxiv=1306.3509|title=High-precision photometry by telescope defocussing. V.
