IRVINE, Calif., June 10, 2016 — Pacific Hospitality Group (PHG) and R.D. Olson Development are pleased to announce the official opening of Paséa Hotel & Spa, the newest addition to the Meritage Collection's portfolio of lifestyle and luxury hotels and resorts. Mere steps from the iconic Huntington Beach Pier overlooking the Pacific Ocean, the hotel, which celebrates its grand opening today, takes inspiration from the vibrant artistic culture and communal spirit of the area. Paséa introduces a new standard of luxury hospitality to Huntington Beach with its guest rooms, spa, signature restaurant, and expansive event spaces.

"We are excited to add another locally-inspired property to our growing Meritage Collection," said Kory Kramer, chief investment officer at PHG. "Paséa Hotel & Spa's opening marks a great milestone for our company as we continue to expand in destinations appealing to both business and leisure travelers."

Reflective of the destination, Paséa Hotel & Spa is a modern, elevated form of the classic coastal vibe with a unique design and casual style of service. Guests enjoy spectacular views of the coastline from any of the 250 beautifully-appointed guestrooms, which include eight luxury one-bedroom suites and a 1,900 square-foot penthouse suite. The experience at Paséa is enhanced by in-room amenities including FRESH bath products, custom Frette hooded sweatshirt robes and linens, and standout onsite offerings including:

The "I AM" Menu: An in-accommodations marketplace menu with a seemingly endless array of items and experiences, offering everything from basic forgotten travel essentials, custom surfboards and GoPro's to reservations for complimentary bicycle rentals, yoga classes and a local brewery tour.

"We are excited to bring a world class ocean front resort to Southern California," said Bob Olson, founder and CEO of R.D. Olson Development. "Paséa Hotel & Spa is a special development for us. We hope the community of Huntington Beach and our future guests enjoy it as much as we enjoyed creating it."
