PHILADELPHIA, PA, March 31, 2015 —The Westin Philadelphia, with its desirable Rittenhouse Square address in the historic city center, and steps from upscale shopping, award-winning restaurants and attractions, has completed an exciting $10 million renovation. The hotel has enhanced all of its 294 guestrooms, including 19 suites, making this transformation part of the Westin brand’s efforts to continuously refresh its rapidly growing global portfolio, which topped 200 hotels worldwide in 2014.
The hotel’s fully renovated guestrooms and suites boast new furniture, carpeting, paint and wall coverings, plus a fresh, new decor of soft, muted colors and warm wood tones to create a soothing, yet sophisticated environment. All rooms feature the world-renowned Westin Heavenly® Bed – featuring lush sheets, down cushioning and a patented pillow-top mattress, which cradles and contours to the body for complete comfort. Refreshed bathrooms offer the Heavenly® Bath enhanced with the brand’s Heavenly® Shower, Heavenly® Robe and White Tea Aloe bath amenities. Additionally guests enjoy in-room, high-speed Internet access, 55″ flat screen televisions and environmentally-friendly climate controls. The Westin brand’s innovative programs and instinctive service transform every aspect of a guest’s stay into a revitalizing experience, focusing on the six pillars of well-being.
Late last year, The Westin Philadelphia’s main restaurant, Winthorpe & Valentine and The Lobby Bar were given dramatic facelifts. The venues have quickly become popular gathering places for guests and local who seek a sophisticated, yet contemporary atmosphere.
“We are thrilled to have the opportunity to better delight our guests with these remarkable upgrades,” says Ryan Sistare, General Manager, The Westin Philadelphia. “We look forward to welcoming guests to our renovated hotel, where they will enjoy all the Westin brand’s signature services and amenities designed to inspire wellbeing.”
