In late 2009, visitors flying into Barcelona will see what looks to be a giant windsail on the coast right next to the entrance to the Port of Barcelona.
Except this windsail is actually the W Hotel Barcelona scheduled to open on October 1, 2009.
The W Hotel Barcelona will be the second W to open in Europe (W Istanbul was the first). But like all Ws it will debut with a bang due to its location right at the foot of the Mediterranean Sea in a building designed by Spain’s most famous architect Ricardo Bofill.
Containing 473 rooms and 67 suites, the W Barcelona will also have “several world-world class gourmet restaurants”, a “sensual rooftop bar” and of course the normal W standards. Via Hotelchatter.
