about the cover
Starwood Hotels & Resorts Worldwide ’ s style-forward W brand has debuted in world fashion capital Paris with the W Paris – Opéra . Rockwell Group Europe , along with W Global Brand Design , used “ The Spark ” as the guiding concept for the design of the Haussmann-era heritage building , which respects its roots while weaving in modern elements . In the W Lounge , for example , the vibrancy of Paris comes into play thanks to upholstery designed to look as if energized by “ The Spark ” and illustrations by Shoboshobo on a mirrored wall .

CORRECTIONS In the June issue of HOTELS :
• Ricardo Suarez is the correct name of the vice president of acquisition and development at Starwood Hotels & Resorts Worldwide .
• The investment in Four Seasons Resort Marrakech should have been listed as € 160 million , and EHC International and Alliances listed as one of its owners .
• E . Michael Reidt should have been listed as executive chef at Area 31 , the restaurant that provides all F & B at the Epic Hotel , Miami . HOTELS regrets the errors .
