Accelerating portfolio growth in dynamic markets across the globe, Starwood Hotels & Resorts Worldwide, Inc. (NYSE: HOT) today announced it has introduced its Westin brand to Sacramento, California. The Westin Sacramento opened today at 4350 Riverside Boulevard in a spectacular, waterfront location. Owned by Urban Commons/Brighton Management, the 100-room property formerly known as Le Rivage Hotel completed a $3.2 million renovation prior to re-opening under the Westin flag.
“We are thrilled to debut the Westin brand in the scenic city of Sacramento, where we offer travelers a restful retreat within close proximity of the city’s leading attractions,” said Brian Povinelli, Global Brand Leader for Westin Hotels & Resorts. “At The Westin Sacramento, travelers can recharge with the help of all of the brand’s signature services and amenities, designed to send guests home feeling better than when they arrived.”
Located alongside the Sacramento River, The Westin Sacramento features 100 guestrooms and suites, many with balconies where guests can enjoy stunning water views. The hotel also offers 7,000 square feet of meeting and function space, a full-service restaurant, outdoor pool, spa, and fully renovated WestinWORKOUT® fitness studio, where guests have plenty of choices for cardio, strength and stretching.
The sensory-rich environment at Westin offers a respite from the rigors of travel and sets a welcoming tone. The Westin brand’s innovative programs and instinctive service transform every aspect of a guest’s stay into a revitalizing experience. All guestrooms and suites at The Westin Sacramento offer the world-renowned Westin Heavenly Bed – an oasis of lush sheets, down and a patented pillow-top mattress, which cradles and contours to the body for truly restorative sleep. Guests will revive in the Heavenly® Bath enhanced with the brand’s Heavenly Shower, Heavenly Robe and White Tea Aloe bath amenities, and in-room high-speed Internet access. The hotel also features the Westin brand’s signature SuperFoodsRX® menu, which includes nutrient-rich and delicious options to tempt every palate.
“We are delighted to introduce the world-renowned Westin brand to Sacramento and expect to attract both business and leisure travelers by providing a sensory-rich experience in a picturesque, waterfront setting,” said Taylor Woods, Principal, Urban Commons/Brighton Management. “

Guests can delve into Sacramento’s Gold Rush days in nearby Old Sacramento, visit the Sacramento Zoo or catch a show at one of several nearby theaters. Sacramento International Airport (SMF) is just 20 minutes from the hotel.
