Warwick International Hotels (www.warwickhotels.com; WIH) is a privately owned company and has a blue-chip portfolio of hotels and resorts. Launched in 1980 with the purchase of the Warwick New York, Warwick International Hotels is celebrating more than three decades of hospitality excellence.
The Grand Hotel in Venice was purchased and then operated by Starwood for a little while before it joined the Starwood Preferred Guest program. The Boston Park Plaza is also owned by SPG, and while it was bookable on spg.com for about 5 weeks one winter, it is not a participating hotel either.
