Your Wellbeing is Our Top Priority
Updated February 1, 2022

Ensuring a safe, clean and inviting environment is the core of our commitment to providing the highest level of hospitality.

In response to COVID-19, we have initiated and are maintaining industry-leading and scientifically driven cleanliness standards to safeguard the wellbeing of our guests and colleagues. Our strengthened safety and sanitizing measures incorporate the latest guidance from the world’s leading health authorities, including the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) and World Health Organization (WHO), and apply to all guest rooms, public and back-of-house areas.

The comprehensive strategies we are employing are rooted in industry experience, based on the latest scientific guidance, and utilize hospital-grade cleaners and best practices designed to prevent the spread of viruses. These strategies will be updated regularly to reflect the most current science and technology available.

Here is what we are doing to keep you safe and comfortable:

  • Sanitizer Stations. Touchless hand sanitizer stations have been placed throughout all public, event and back-of-house areas of the hotel.
  • Personal Protection Equipment Required. All unvaccinated hotel associates are required to wear face masks. Unvaccinated guests are encouraged to do so as well.
  • Your Room is Your Room. No hotel personnel will enter your room during your stay without your permission.
  • Training and Education. We provide regular training to our hotel associates about the latest safety and cleanliness strategies.

We look forward to welcoming you soon. Thank you for your continued trust.
Be Well. Stay Well.

Protocols

Keeping you safe begins with keeping our valued hotel associates safe. Our dedicated COVID-19 task force has developed a multi-pronged approach to health and wellbeing, which stresses cleanliness and hygiene standards and regular education and training.

Our associates are equipped to handle confirmed or suspected COVID-19 cases among guests and colleagues. They also understand how to identify potential health risks and are committed to working together to strictly follow all safety and cleaning protocols, which are detailed below.

Safety Protocols

  • Proper hand washing and other safety protocol trainings will be conducted and maintained. Guests are also encouraged to adhere to regular 30-second handwashing/sanitizing guidelines.
  • COVID-19 policies and protocols will be available for all guests to review.
  • Should a guest or staff member be diagnosed with COVID-19 after leaving the hotel, all guests and staff that were present at the same time will be notified. If a guest or staff member is diagnosed while staying with us, proper isolation protocols will be followed pursuant to CDC and WHO guidelines, and guests and staff will be notified.
