INTERVIEW Nobu Hotel Barcelona Nobu Hotel Los Cabos Nobu Ryokan Malibu How do you juggle your time with two very different careers? Well I'm not there on a day-to-day basis, and I'm for sure not in the kitchen with Nobu. I'm working on a movie right now, which I need to fly out for on the weekend. We have our CEO Trevor Horwell and COO Struan Mckenzie, who take care of Nobu Hotels as they are two great hoteliers. What's next for Nobu? We have a new property in Barbuda to come, its early stages, and if all goes to plan we will open in 2020 and incorporate our first Nobu Beach Club.
