Launching the live performance series, W PRESENTS, to bring a fresh lineup of electronic music to more than 20 destinations worldwide, is just one instance of LP Giobbi’s passion for elevating new voices.

W Insiders are insiders in the true sense of the word—ensuring guests have an impeccable experience, facilitating amenities, and acting as connectors, within hotel walls and beyond. “We try to elevate people’s stay from a normal hotel stay into a personalized W experience.

When you make something personal for someone, they’re going to take that memory with them wherever they go.” Forbes spoke with Daniel Bruington, a W Insider at the W Los Angeles - West Beverly Hills, Marriott International’s Western Region Hotel Of The Year, about what makes the W Insider program truly exceptional.

“Lélu’s sensibility—primed for irony on the one hand, earnestly curious on the other—makes him particularly suited to this more-is-more city.” Artist Thomas Lélu’s work, featuring cheeky phrases in looping ballpoint pen, have inspired a set of tote bags and stationery for W Hotels. To commemorate the upcoming collaboration, Laura Regensdorf explored New York with the self described “romantironic”—a Lélu-coined term for a personality that’s somewhere between romantic and ironic.
