Hailing from New Zealand, this experienced hotelier Greg Findlay started his hospitality career with Starwood in 1992 in his home country.  As General Manager, his professional footprints have been left throughout the Asia Pacific division from New Zealand, Australia to Indonesia, Thailand and Korea.  After successfully launching The Westin Auckland in 2007 and The Westin Siray Bay Resort & Spa, Phuket in 2010, he took up the role as General Manager at the first W hotel in Asia – W Seoul Walkerhill before moving to Beijing.
 
“I’m very excited to join the passionate pre-opening team at W Beijing Chang’an!”  Greg commented on his first China adventure,“ Beijing is such a city steeped in history, my team and I can’t wait to showcase W brand’s dynamic and future-forward design, Whatever/Whenever service and What’s New/Next for both our jet set travelers and trendsetting locals.”
