Starwood Hotels, an affiliate of global private investment firm Starwood Capital Group, is a hotel brand management company that operates Treehouse Hotels. Treehouse was founded on the ideas that inspire a child to build a treehouse. Adventure, independence, cozy spaces and repurposing crafty things are what make a place warm and special. That’s why every Treehouse Hotel celebrates found objects, nostalgic tunes, handmade details and locally sourced treats.

At Treehouse, every detail is imagined through the carefree, optimistic lens of childhood and balanced with a distinctly modern sensibility. With attentive service, locally inspired fun amenities, thoughtful programming and several food & beverage offerings, Treehouse Hotels are about playfulness and freedom. The first of the brand’s portfolio, Treehouse Hotel London opened in November 2019.
