W Hotels Paris – Sneak Peek
February 14, 2012 will mark the start of a new era in Paris, France. That’s because W Hotels makes its debut on that day with a new property set directly across the street from the historic Opéra Garnier theatre and opera house. The new Starwood hotel aims to create a fusion of the quintessential Parisian neighborhood with the dynamic atmosphere of New York City’s cultural district.
W Paris – Opéra is being designed in a partnership between Rockwell Group Europe and W Global Brand Design. It will take full advantage of the historic nature of the building to create an atmosphere of sophistication, which plays off of the designation of Paris as the City of Lights. At the centre of the design is a spectacular backlit wall that undulates throughout the core of the building with displays of The Spark; digital patterns creating abstract images that continuously change.

Despite this design unity, the normal level of privacy remains. This layout theory carries on into the general public areas in which large floor-to-ceiling windows attract light and frame the beautiful buildings of Soho behind them.
The hotel features 192 guestrooms, which includes 21 suites along with the UK’s very first Spice Market, a restaurant which is inspired by the lively street life of South East Asia. W London is positioned on the corner of Leicester Square and Wardour Street, situated in between social Soho and the popular square as well as finding itself at the heart of London’s entertainment scene. The building, which was created by McAleer & Rushe of Ireland, is 10-stories tall and is covered in clear windows which alter their coloration with respect to the time of day and various other conditions.
