This page is part of our public exclusion list — a transparency tool that shows which companies we screen out and why. It is not investment advice, and it is not an accusation. But it is subject to change as our understanding of the facts evolves.
Sunstone Hotel Investors, Inc. is a real estate investment trust (REIT) that owns and operates upscale hotels and resorts. The company’s business model is predicated on commercial animal exploitation, as its hotel properties generate revenue from the sale of meat, dairy, and egg products through their restaurants, room service, and catering operations. This revenue stream is integral to the hospitality service offerings at its portfolio of properties.
The company is listed by Cruelty Free Investors as a company that exploits animals, specifically under the “Meat/Dairy/Eggs” category. As a hospitality-focused REIT, Sunstone’s operations are directly linked to the demand for animal-based food products across its hotel network.

The Naughty List
A digest of changes to our exclusion list — new additions, removals, and the evidence behind them. We review the list continuously as new evidence surfaces.
Companies appear on our exclusion list based on our investment judgment — not because they've done anything illegal. This is a difference of values and opinion, not an accusation of wrongdoing. Exclusion does not constitute a recommendation against investing in any company, and absence from the list does not constitute a recommendation to invest.
This information is provided for educational and transparency purposes only and should not be relied upon as investment advice. Data is drawn from independent watchdogs, NGOs, government registries, and Ethical Capital's ongoing research — see Research Sources for the full list.
