The upscale and lifestyle brand W Hotels debuted in Rome next to the Spanish Steps. For this Roman getaway, the hotel incorporates the walls of two 19th century palaces in Via Liguria converted to hospitality under the direction of the Meyer Davis studio. The whole mixes traditional architecture and a Roman expression of design, especially in the hotel lobby, the W Lounge, which comes alive in the evening to the sound of DJ sets. Colorful leather furniture and eclectic seating choices, black and gray marble floors, sculptures and artwork, hand-painted wall fresco by artist Costanza Alvarez de Castro and inspired by Roman gardens: the lifestyle dimension specific to the brand of the Marriott group is present in Rome as well as in the sixty or so establishments of W Hotels around the world.
