The Westin Cincinnati
is undergoing a multi-million dollar renovation that includes significant
upgrades and contemporary enhancements to its 456 guest rooms. Additionally,
the hotel has completed construction on an innovative meeting space, Tangent at
Westin™.
“The
Westin brand is about living well and the changes that we are making to this
renowned property are designed to inspire well-being in travel, work, meetings
and vacations,” said Kathleen Gilbey, the Westin Cincinnati general manager.

Embracing
the Westin brand’s promise For a Better You, the renovations will
include a refresh of the 456 guest rooms featuring the Westin Heavenly® Bed and
Westin Heavenly® Shower, new guest corridors, an enhanced ADA-compliant hotel
entrance and Tangent.
Designed to facilitate collaboration among small groups,
Tangent is ideal for impromptu meetings, brainstorms or interviews and comes
equipped with smart technology to enhance productivity.
Starting
from the core frame of each guest room, nearly 2,500 gallons of paint, 7,500
square yards of carpet and 51,200 yards of wall vinyl will be utilized to
transform the décor. From the palette of harmonious, nature-inspired colors to
the subtle mood lighting, attention will be paid to every detail to enhance guests’
moods from check-in to check-out.
“Guests
will notice a sensory-rich environment that provides a respite from the rigors
of travel and sets a welcoming tone,” Gilbey explained. “The Westin brand’s
innovative programs and instinctive service are meant to transform every aspect
of a guest’s stay into a revitalizing experience.”
