W HOTEL OPENS IN VEGAS

W Hotels Worldwide, now part of Marriott International, has made its Las Vegas debut with last month’s opening of W Las Vegas.

W transformed a 289-room tower of SLS Las Vegas, located on the emerging North End of the Vegas Strip.

Guests checking in at the hotel’s Welcome Desk are invited into the W brand’s signature ‘Living Room’, designed to evoke a sense of Vegas glamour and inspired by casino gaming tables.

And intimate seating ‘nooks’ are a nod to the hotel’s original mid-century incarnation as the Sahara.

The 289 rooms, designed by Philippe Starck, include signature W bedding and Bliss bath amenities, while the rooftop WET Deck includes private cabanas and a bar with views of the Stratosphere and desert mountains. There’s also a spa and a 24-hour fitness centre.

The property has seven eateries and several nightlife experiences are just an elevator ride away at SLS Las Vegas.

Anthony Ingham, Global Brand Leader, W Hotels Worldwide, commented: “If there are two things in this world that were truly made for each other, it’s W Hotels and Las Vegas.

“After nearly two decades of anticipation, W Las Vegas will show guests a different side of the strip, offering an unexpected and irreverent twist on the typical Sin City experience.”
