The Scout - Hot
Spot
By JS, Entertainment Weekly - January 17, 2003
OPUS HOTEL It's about time a
hipster hotel popped up in Hollywood North, a.k.a. Vancouver.
GUEST LIST Open since mid-September,
Opus has been the place to stay for X2's Alan Cumming,
Anna Paquin, and Rebecca Romijn-Stamos.
ROOM SERVICE While plenty of
hotels lay out plush bathrobes and CD players, the 97-room
Opus offers quarters reflecting the tastes of five “muses.”
Each fictitious muse - from Billy the British filmmaker
to Dede the Los Angeles Method actress - has his or
her own room style, ranging from US$115 per night. “For
each character, we looked at what they liked, what they
buy, where they vacation, and from there decided how
their room should look,” says general manager
David Curell of the fantasy clientele.
ROOM AT THE TOP “Right
now we're getting a lot of requests for Dede's package
[US$470],” says Curell. “I guess people
like rooms with animal prints and faux fur.”-JS
