PAN AM HOTEL BY HILTON AND GRAND FOUNTAIN COMING TO CITADEL OUTLETS LATE-SPRING 2026
Los Angeles’ Leading Outlet Shopping Destination for International Travelers Seeking the Perfect Blend of Luxury, Value & Convenience Announces the Addition of a New Hotel & Immersive Landmark Experience
Citadel Outlets, Los Angeles’ leading outlet shopping destination, is thrilled to announce the highly anticipated arrival of two transformational additions: The Pan Am Hotel by Hilton and The Grand Fountain, set to debut in late spring 2026. Known for offering seamless access to prestigious American luxury brands and upscale amenities tailored to the global traveler, Citadel Outlets is elevating its experience—bringing together curated shopping, world-class accommodations, and awe-inspiring entertainment all in one destination.
A NOSTALGIC JOURNEY WITH A MODERN TOUCH: THE PAN AM HOTEL BY HILTON
The Pan Am Hotel by Hilton at Citadel Outlets will redefine international travel hospitality by capturing the golden age of air travel and pairing it with the comforts of modern luxury. A tribute to the legacy of Pan Am’s iconic brand, the hotel combines mid-century aesthetics with contemporary design, all within the trusted service and global hospitality standards of the Tapestry Collection by Hilton.
The hotel will feature two full-service dining venues, a state-of-the-art fitness center, and thoughtful in-room amenities designed with international travelers in mind. One such amenity – conceived by Craig Realty Group President Steven L. Craig himself — includes custom-designed storage areas built specifically to accommodate two over sized suitcases, a nod to the needs of travelers who often shop or journey with extra-large luggage. This practical yet elegant solution ensures guests have ample space to unpack, stay organized, and feel right at home – all while being conveniently located near top Southern California destinations and attractions and just footsteps away from more than 130 world-class outlet stores.
INTRODUCING THE GRAND FOUNTAIN: A CAPTIVATING NEW ICON
Between the hotel and the outlet center, the Grand Fountain is poised to become the heart and soul of Citadel Outlets. Designed by WET Design—the world-renowned water feature innovators behind the iconic Bellagio Fountain in Las Vegas—this extraordinary centerpiece will blend art, engineering, fire, and water into a one-of-a-kind attraction that elevates the shopping experience into something magical.
The Grand Fountain Plaza will create a mesmerizing oasis that welcomes guests into the retail zone, while creating a simplistic and easily accessible motor coach station for loading and unloading international guests.
GLOBAL GAME CHANGER FOR THE INTERNATIONAL TRAVELER
“Our vision for Citadel Outlets has always been to create more than just a shopping center—we’re building a global destination that inspires wonder and connection,” said Steven L. Craig, President of Craig Realty Group. “With the addition of the Pan Am Hotel by Hilton and The Grand Fountain, we’re reimagining what’s possible—bringing together design, innovation, and hospitality to deliver something truly unforgettable. These experiences are thoughtfully crafted with the guest in mind, offering moments of comfort, discovery, and delight for travelers from around the world.”
