NAPA, CA, June 24, 2008. The Westin Verasa, Napa is preparing to become the epitome of the Napa Valley lifestyle when it opens on September 18th, providing a haven for guests to replenish their spirit and revitalize their energy in one of the country's most idyllic destinations. The hotel will represent everything visitors enjoy about the Napa Valley -- food, wine, and lifestyle - infused with Westin signature services and amenities plus one of America's most highly acclaimed restaurants.

The Westin Verasa, Napa, the first full-service, upper upscale property to be built in Napa in nearly five years, will be located blocks away from COPIA, The American Center for Wine, Food & the Arts, and the new Oxbow Public Market. The hotel is destined to become the focal point of Downtown Napa where guests savor their stay in the wine country.

"The Westin is perfectly situated for guests to explore thriving Downtown Napa and partake in the finest aspects of the wine country lifestyle," said Don Shindle, General Manager of The Westin Verasa, Napa.

The 180-suite hotel's design is based on historic regional precedents recalling the many influences evident in Napa and Bay Area architecture. The property will utilize details and materials from this historic style including well-articulated windows, window bays, timbered elements, wood, stone, and concrete accents. The hotel also embraces the Napa River and Preserve, where an expansive pool, courtyard and south wing open to the natural environment.

Unprecedented Signature Services and Amenities in Napa

Westin will offer a degree of service and amenities that marry the elegant yet relaxed wine country lifestyle with the hotel brand's instinctive ability to make visitors feel at home.

"The Westin will introduce to Napa unprecedented signature services and amenities that enable our guests to enrich their mind, body and spirit, and feel renewed as a result of our instinctive, charismatic style of service," added Don Shindle.

From the moment guests step inside The Westin Verasa, Napa, they will be embraced by the hotel's intuitive and attentive service. The experience will begin in the hotel lobby, when visitors will be greeted by the Westin Sensory Welcome(R), where soothing music, scents, botanicals and lighting transform the welcome experience and make the lobby an inviting place.

Concierge service will help guests make the most of their stay, providing easy access to wine tastings, culinary attractions, spas and the area's abundant recreation. The resort will include additional Westin trademark touches that have raised the bar for upscale hotels worldwide, such as the Westin Heavenly Bed(R), 24-hour Westin WORKOUT(R) fitness center, the Westin Heavenly Bath(R), Westin Service Express(R) allowing guests to request every imaginable hotel service with one call, and the Westin Heavenly Dog(R) program.

Other amenities designed to provide the ultimate getaway will include an outdoor pool, hot tub, up to 12,000 feet of conference and event space, two bocce courts, and easy access to river walking paths.
