Opened in September 2023, W Macau – Studio City is housed in the newly added USD 1.2 billion complex of Studio City designed by the renowned international architecture firm Zaha Hadid Architects (ZHA). The development by Melco further complements Studio City's existing offerings and features a modern interpretation of the rich detailing, bold geometries and craftsmanship of the Art Deco period. The project further demonstrates the Company's pledge to supporting Macau's sustainable growth as a world center for leisure and tourism.

Mr. Lawrence Ho, Chairman & CEO of Melco Resorts & Entertainment, said, "We are honored and humbled to receive the esteemed Prix Versailles by UNESCO for the third time since 2019. The prizes underline Melco's dedication to creating iconic and culturally significant landmarks – showcasing our commitment to Macau and the Greater Bay Area's sustainable development. Thank you to the Prix Versailles for the honor, and congratulations to the W, ZHA and Studio City teams on the wonderful achievement. We will continue to strive to position ourselves as a global premium brand and to raise the bar in luxury hospitality by offering the best in innovative and world-class offerings."

Jérôme Gouadain, Secretary General of the Prix Versailles, said, "Through their architecture and their design, the World's Most Beautiful Hotels elevate the links between culture and tourism. On the one hand, culture provides finesse, elegance, updates to ancient techniques and diverse shapes, forms, textures and colors, not to mention curiosity, which is the hallmark of a destination. On the other, tourism showcases cultural assets, encourages visitors to discover new people and places, and brings knowledge to life. The World's Most Beautiful Hotels are ambassadors for intelligent, sustainable tourism rooted in culture."

Presented each year at UNESCO since 2015 and focused on recognizing exceptional architecture and intelligent sustainability, the Prix Versailles is a series of architectural competitions that shine light on the finest contemporary projects around the world. The Official List is aligned with Prix Versailles' awarding principles – paying tribute to innovation, creativity, reflections of local heritage, ecological efficiency and the values of social interaction and participation – all of which the United Nations holds in high regard.

In 2019, City of Dream's Morpheus became the first hotel in Macau to win a Prix Versailles regional award in the Hotels, Central and Northeast Asia category. Last year, Morpheus was recognized as one of the World's Most Beautiful Hotels by Prix Versailles. W Macau – Studio City's latest achievement is the third time for Melco to receive the coveted worldwide architecture and design award accolade from UNESCO.
