RANCHO CORDOVA, Calif. and MCLEAN, Va. – DoubleTree by Hilton, one of Hilton's (NYSE: HLT) 13 market-leading brands, brings upscale, contemporary lodging to the Gold Country of Northern California with the opening of DoubleTree Suites by Hilton Sacramento Rancho Cordova.
With a $10 million renovation to all public spaces and accommodations now complete, the 158-suite contemporary hotel offers guests a relaxing environment, with stone and wooden design elements borrowed from its redwood- and granite-laden California locale. Additionally, hues of gold throughout pay homage to the "gold rush" miners who flocked to the region in the 1840's.
Just 11 miles east of Sacramento and within walking distance of the Sunrise Light Rail station, DoubleTree Suites by Hilton Sacramento Rancho Cordova offers convenient access to many of Northern California's dining, shopping and outdoor delights, such as rafting and kayaking on scenic American River and cycling along the idyllic, 32-mile American River Parkway Bike Trail.
"From the world-class wineries of the Sierra Foothills to the bustling businesses of Sacramento, Rancho Cordova is an attractive destination for all travelers," said Dianna Vaughan, senior vice president and global head, DoubleTree by Hilton. "It's an ideal location for our newest DoubleTree by Hilton, where each visit begins with a warm welcome and our beloved DoubleTree Chocolate Chip Cookie and then continues with a level of hospitable service that extends throughout each stay."
Each of the hotel's large suites blends contemporary décor with charming and homelike amenities, such as a mini-refrigerator, microwave, work desk with ergonomic chair, free Wi-Fi and DoubleTree Sweet Dreams® Sleep Experience beds. Guests may choose from a variety of bedroom layouts, including bi-level loft and patio suites.
DoubleTree Suites by Hilton Sacramento Rancho Cordova also offers delicious dining options. Aka Mesa Restaurant and Bar – a cozy, yet airy, full-service restaurant – overlooks the outdoor courtyard and pool, and serves signature tequila cocktails, locally crafted beer, exclusive wines and an extensive Mexican-Asian fusion menu. Among the many culinary options to select are Wasabi Chicken Mole, Adobo Miso Salmon, Asian Cubano Sandwich and – for dessert – a DoubleTree Cookie Encrusted Flan.
Guests may also pick up snacks, sandwiches, salads, beer and wine – anytime – in the convenient onsite 24-hour Made Market Pantry. Room service is also available.
