The new hotel is the third property to open in Arlington under the Westin Brand.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">A former Sheraton, the Westin Crystal City underwent a $20 million renovation before it was converted to the new brand. It now offers 220 luxurious guest rooms and 16,000 square feet of state-of-the-art meeting facilities, including 11 meeting rooms, right in the heart of Crystal City, Arlington\u2019s largest downtown neighborhood, close to the Ronald Reagan Washington National Airport, shopping, businesses and numerous attractions, from the White House to the Smithsonian Museums.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">According to Starwood, all of the hotel\u2019s guestrooms have been fully renovated and outfitted with the Westin brand\u2019s signature services and amenities. Additional facilities at the Westin Crystal City include a new restaurant and bar, a 24-hour business center and a fitness studio.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">HEI Hotels &amp; Resorts is the owner and manager of the new hotel.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">\u201cWe are thrilled to reposition this ideally located hotel as a Westin and expect to attract both business and leisure travelers with the brand\u2019s distinctive wellness positioning and innovative brand-led programming,\u201d Anthony Rutledge, CEO of HEI Hotels &amp; Resorts, said in a statement for the press. \u201cThe Westin brand is a great fit for Crystal City and will help meet the demand for high-caliber lodging in this thriving business and retail center, just minutes from the nation\u2019s capital.\u201d<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">The new hotel opens right at a great time for the hospitality market. According to reports from PricewaterhouseCoopers, travel activity picked up significantly in the second quarter of the year, resulting in better-than-expected occupancy performance. The strong gains registered this year will help set the hospitality industry on track to hit its highest occupancy levels in 20 years in 2015.
