Starwood Hotels, the hotel brand management company behind 1 Hotels, Baccarat Hotels and Treehouse Hotels, has appointed Gonzalo Bustamante as SVP, design.
Bustamante's experience spans both boutique hotels and major global groups. He previously held the position of EVP, design and development at MGM Resorts International, where he oversaw multibillion-dollar projects across multiple continents, including the $10 billion MGM Japan project in Osaka.
