  • Project Overview

    The Hyatt Centric / Marshall Hotel Project is a premier example of adaptive reuse and historic preservation, located in the heart of downtown Sacramento. This transformative hospitality development revitalized the iconic Marshall Hotel—originally built in the early 20th century—into a modern, upscale Hyatt Centric hotel. Situated near the Golden 1 Center and surrounded by Sacramento’s entertainment, dining, and cultural venues, the project delivers a vibrant urban experience that bridges history with contemporary design and luxury.

    This multi-phase project not only preserved key architectural elements of the original structure but also introduced a new high-rise tower that expanded the building’s capacity and capabilities, making it a landmark destination for both leisure and business travelers.
