A Delano Hotel Opening in St. Barts?

October 29, 2008 at 11:50 AM | by juliana | 2 Comments

Much like the spin-offs of their popular Mondrian flagship in places like Scottsdale, Miami Beach, Chicago and New York, Morgans Hotel Group is eager to do the same with the Delano Hotel.

The Delano Las Vegas project was started and then stopped and is now indefinitely on hold. A Delano in Dubai was announced back in September but that won't open until 2012.

However, it looks like a project in St. Bart's has received the greenlight and will be the second Delano to open. We were tipped off that Dutch designer Piet Boon would be in charge of the Delano St. Barts design (the original was done by Philippe Starck) and on Boon's web site, the opening date is set as near as 2009.

Other than that, we have no other info such as where in St. Barts or what this place will look like. But as soon as we hear something, we'll update you. Similarly, if you know something, won't you be kind to share it with us too?
