The
hip, younger brother to the Starwood W Hotel brand is starting to
evolve on the northshore of Tempe Town Lake in downtown Tempe. For
those not aware of the "aloft" hotel concept, this blurb was taken
directly from a Starwood press release, "Infused with the DNA of W
Hotels, aloft is a new destination sensation featuring loft-inspired
design, accessible technology and a stylish urban attitude. Starwood
anticipates the first aloft hotels to open in 2008, with 500 properties
worldwide expected by 2012."
Planned for completion in April/May
of 2009, we are sure this hotel lobby, lounge and bar will be the buzz
of Tempe! That is, until the next hot spot opens. With the
huge growth in Downtown Tempe (Lumina, etc.) we know that the next hot spot won't be far behind!
