A week ago I reported the Westin Grand and its corporate parent, Starwood Hotels, wouldn’t return my calls. The Washington, D.C. hotel had been named as one of the locations of Brent Wilkes’ now-infamous poker parties. The Watergate, another alleged location, has confirmed receiving subponeas for more information in connection to the case. I wondered, what about the Westin?
I’ve continued to call the hotel company, and this morning I finally got a response. Nadine Ayala, a spokeswoman for Starwood, called to say that “right now we have no comment, and no information to share.”
She promised to keep me in the loop if that changes.
