Lifestyle entrepreneur Ian Schrager and hotel magnate Bill Marriott will be building one of their first nine "Edition" hotels in Costa Rica. The hotels will all have 150 to 200 rooms and each will have an individual style. The partners have also promised to be environmentally responsible. Schrager will be the mastermind behind the concept, design, marketing, branding and food and beverages while Marriott will do the grunt work of development and operations. 28/05/08
