Pyramid Global Hospitality has expanded its independent collection, Benchmark Resorts & Hotels, with the addition of The Mission Inn Hotel & Spa, a designated National Historic Landmark in Riverside, CA.
The Mission Inn marks the first partnership between Pyramid and the property’s new ownership, San Manuel Investment Authority, an instrumentality of Yuhaaviatam of San Manuel Nation, which recently acquired the property.
Pyramid will oversee all operations and commercial strategy for the 238‑room property, including its spa, 20,000 sq. ft of flexible event space, a portfolio of eight food and beverage venues, as well as on-site catering and signature events.
“The Mission Inn is a historic landmark that is deeply woven into the history and identity of downtown Riverside,” said Lynn Valbuena, chairwoman, San Manuel Investment Authority and Yuhaaviatam of San Manuel Nation. “As we look to the future, we’re proud to partner with Pyramid Global Hospitality to continue building on the character and traditions that generations of guests have come to cherish, while also elevating the guest experience and offering our support for the local community.”
Warren Fields, CEO, Pyramid Global Hospitality, added, “Each independent hotel is truly a brand of one, requiring a fundamentally different operating mindset. The Mission Inn Hotel & Spa has an incredible legacy and a deep connection to the Riverside community. We will honor that legacy and connection while unlocking new opportunities for the growth of the hotel and its associates. We will focus on aligning with Yuhaaviatam of San Manuel Nation to bring the right mix of insight, resources and partnership to support the hotel’s long-term success.”
