W definitely stands for the wow factor
Where
Located in the heart of Las Condes, W evokes luxury and is the first time this brand has ventured into South America.
Occupying a formerly disused office space, W boasts an impressive position within close proximity to the famous Sculpture Park as well as the Ralli Museum. There is even a ski resort nearby if you want to mix it up with the off piste crowd.
Tell me about it
It is all in the epic design that comes from Tony Chi who is considered to be one of the hottest designers hailing from the Big Apple.
He is also responsible for the fabulous Park Hyatt in Shanghai. Gone are the dusty desks and drunken office parties which have been replaced with mirrored walls as well as a host of local tapestry that really awaken your senses.
Don’t miss out on the grandiose walls which are lined with 6,000 individual bottles of the best fine wines, cuvees and vintages from across the globe that’s certain to leave you wanting more.
You will be able to reach new heights in oenophilia thanks to the impressive 12 metres of wine on offer spanning the depths of Bordeaux to the hills of Australia.
Now it’s down to business. Choose your own luxury room if you dare with names befitting every possible term devoted entirely to the word excellent. (Just imagine Mr Burns from the Simpsons rubbing his hands with glee!).
Entitled Wonderful, Spectacular and Marvellous it’s like a battle of the superlatives at the W. However if you really want to go all out then the Cool Corner Room is the ideal option.
Why not come out fighting from your own corner and snap one up with its windows instead of walls and majestic vistas over the glorious Andes mountain range.
Hungry for more
Surrender to the culinary delights of executive chef Jean-Paul Bondoux at Noso where you can indulge in an array of local cuisine with a delicate French twist.
However there are three restaurants in total so you can flit like a humming bird between classic French gastronomy, magical sushi delights and a range of Chilean specialities.
Indulge
Tierra Paraíso is the wellness centre at W which is home to a wealth of invigorating treatments from hot stone to chiromassage therapies. Take it all in thanks to the air that has been purified on site as you sweep through treatment rooms and a dedicated relaxation area.
If you really want the cool factor, then let the whole of Chile unfurl before your very eyes with the aptly named WOW one bed suite.
Panoramic mountainous views come as standard as well as the vibrant downtown of Santiago that you can enjoy from the magnificence of your own 400 square foot terrace.
They say to dare is to do and if you are brave then the Extra Wow Suite will have you shouting Wow wee in no time. Local art is blended beautifully alongside state of the art mod cons such as a large plasma screen, double vanity sinks and iPod docks.
By the way
Hand pick your own drink selections at the exclusive Tea Library where you can immerse yourself in a host of special blends from all over Latin America including, Chile, Uruguay and Brazil. Now that’s a real brain teaser!
The ordinary has now become the extraordinary.
