Starwood has signed a deal to expand its popular
Aloft brand to Peru.
Set to open in 2018, the two hotels - Aloft Lima Miraflores and
Aloft Lima Costa Verde - are owned by and managed by Libertador, one the leading hotel groups in
the country.
Grupo Libertador
also owns and manages three Starwood hotels under The Luxury
Collection brand in Cusco, Urubamba and Paracas and The Westin
Lima Hotel & Convention Center.
“Latin America continues
to be a key priority for the Aloft brand, and we look forward to
expanding our presence to Lima, one of South America’s most sought
out destinations,” said Brian McGuinness, Senior Vice President,
Specialty Select Brands for Starwood. “With more than 100 hotels
globally and a bullish pipeline, Aloft continues to debut in some
of the world’s most dynamic destinations.”
Oceanfront Aloft Lima Costa Verde will feature 160
guest rooms and an enviable location on the boardwalk of Miraflores, making it ideal for leisure and business travellers
alike.
Aloft Lima Miraflores, located in the heart of Miraflores,
is part of a multi-use development complex that will have shops
and dining. The hotel will have 164 rooms and more
than 5,000 square feet of space for meetings and events.
“Miraflores is a commercial district
with a growing tourist demand. The two Aloft hotels–both in
unbeatable locations in the city – are an excellent complement to
our existing Westin Lima Hotel & Convention Center located in San
Isidro,” said Jorge Melero, CEO of Libertador Hotels, Resorts &
Spas.
Aloft is Starwood’s fastest growing brand with 100 hotels in 16
countries now open and the company’s second largest pipeline in
hotels. Fueled by accelerating demand in dynamic markets
worldwide, Aloft continues to enter new markets—including recent
openings in Munich and Stuttgart, Germany—and is on track to
double its footprint in Latin America in less than two years.
