Cambria Celebrates Grand Opening of Largest Hotel, Cambria Hotel Anaheim Resort Area
Cambria Hotels, an upscale brand by Choice Hotels International, Inc. (NYSE: CHH) known for delivering little luxuries to guests, marked the opening of its 50th and largest location, the Cambria Hotel Anaheim Resort Area, with an exclusive ribbon cutting ceremony.
Anaheim Mayor Harry Sidhu and representatives from Visit Anaheim, the city's tourism marketing organization, joined executives from Choice Hotels and Cambria Hotels for the occasion. The event drew inspiration from the hotel's ideal location in the heart of Orange County and highlighted the hotel's unique amenities, such as a waterpark, outdoor movie wall and putting green. A $1,000 donation to Caterina's Club, an Anaheim-based nonprofit dedicated to providing warm meals and housing assistance to low-income families, was also presented at the event as a token of the brand's support and appreciation to the local community.
Following the ribbon cutting ceremony, guests enjoyed tours of the property, live music and craft beers from Asylum Brewery, The Bruery, Golden Road Brewing and Karl Strauss Brewery Company - all part of Cambria's signature local craft beer program, specially curated by Cambria's own Certified Cicerone, and featured on the hotel's seasonal bar menu.
