W Hotels' insiders show guests cities' new trends

If you want to try speciality food, find cool new stores and attend a fashion show during a visit to an unfamiliar city, ask insiders at W Hotels, part of Starwood Hotels and Resorts Worldwide, for help.

The service has been provided since 1998, when the first W Hotel opened in New York. The insiders, who boast many connections, have all the latest information about clothes, food, design and music to meet the demands of different guests.

Different from the hotels' regular insiders, Han Huohuo, a Beijing-born fashion icon, assumed a two-day role on Sept 2 and 3, invited by the W Hotel in Beijing.
