Architecture & Construction

Starwood helps streamline projects in the most time-efficient and cost-effective manner to ensure your property opens strong.

For projects taking shape throughout the world, our Architecture and Construction (A&C) group provides expert guidance through all stages of development, from feasibility through opening for Starwood-managed projects. Consisting of licensed architects and designers, the group reviews and approves all architectural, engineering and interior design plans and specifications throughout the process. Model rooms are also reviewed and approved. A&C also supervises all timelines to ensure projects open on schedule. Once construction is under way, our A&C professionals perform periodic inspections of the construction site and participate in the turnover/acceptance process.

Starwood works with our franchise licensees to provide the documentation needed to implement the construction or conversion of your hotel, from design schematics to pre-opening sales and marketing planning tools.
