Pasadena’s growing reputation as a hospitality leader for domestic and international meetings and events, saw a major transformation between 2017-2018 when several of the city’s hotels underwent multi-million dollar renovations, including the official opening of Hyatt Place Pasadena, an all-new 189-room property adjacent to the Pasadena Convention Center. The renovations and expansions offer travelers more guest rooms, larger meeting spaces and improved amenities to enhance their overall experience.
“In 2018, Pasadena saw tremendous investment in our hospitality offerings making it an exciting time for our community,” said Jeanne O’Grady Goldschmidt, executive director of the Pasadena Convention & Visitors Bureau. “With over 2600 rooms, new meeting spaces and renovated hotels, Pasadena can accommodate a variety of conferences, meetings and events.”
Among the changes that took place between 2017-2018, the Sheraton Pasadena completed a $20 million renovation of guest rooms, lobby and meeting spaces; a $25 million renovation of guest rooms, lobby, bar and meeting spaces at Hilton Pasadena; $11 million guest room beautification at Westin Pasadena; and construction of a rooftop pool, meeting space, fitness center and 30 new rooms at the Hotel Constance Pasadena.
Most recently, Hyatt Place Pasadena, the first Hyatt-branded hotel in the city and located across from the Pasadena Convention Center opened on December 20, 2018 in time for the 130th Rose Parade and 105th Rose Bowl Game.
