JW Marriott, Ritz-Carlton, St. Regis, and Luxury Collection brands will all expand in APAC, joining its current portfolio of 130 luxury properties in the region.

Upcoming openings include four new Ritz-Carlton hotels.
The Ritz-Carlton, Perth opens its doors in October and marks a return to Australia for the brand.
