Exhibit 14.1

SUNSTONE HOTEL INVESTORS, INC.

CODE OF BUSINESS CONDUCT AND ETHICS

The Board of Directors of Sunstone Hotel Investors, Inc. (with its subsidiaries, the “Company”) has adopted this code of ethics (this “Code”) to:

• promote honest and ethical conduct, including fair dealing and the ethical handling of conflicts of interest;

• promote full, fair, accurate, timely and understandable disclosure;

• promote compliance with applicable laws and governmental rules and regulations;

• ensure the protection of the Company’s legitimate business interests, including corporate opportunities, assets and confidential information; and

• deter wrongdoing.

All directors, officers and employees of the Company are expected to be familiar with the Code and to adhere to those principles and procedures set forth in the Code that apply to them.

For purposes of this Code, the “Code of Ethics Contact Person” will be the chair of the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee for directors, officers and employees.

From time to time, the Company may amend or waive some provisions of this Code. Any and all waivers of this Code must be approved in advance and in writing. Any amendment or waiver of the Code for officers or directors of the Company may be made only by the Board of Directors or the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee of the Board and must be promptly disclosed if required by SEC or NYSE rules. Any waiver for other employees may be made only by the Code of Ethics Contact Person, and must be reported in writing to the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee.

I. Honest and Candid Conduct

Each director, officer and employee owes a duty to the Company to act with integrity. Integrity requires, among other things, being honest and candid. Deceit and subordination of principle are inconsistent with integrity.

Each director, officer and employee must:

• Act with integrity, including being honest and candid while still maintaining the confidentiality of information where required or consistent with the Company’s policies.

• Observe both the form and spirit of laws and governmental rules and regulations, accounting standards and Company policies.

• Adhere to a high standard of business ethics.

II. Conflicts of Interest

A “conflict of interest” occurs when an individual’s private interest interferes or appears to interfere with the interests of the Company. A conflict of interest can arise when a director, officer or employee takes actions or has interests that may make it difficult to perform his or her Company work objectively and effectively. For example, a conflict of interest would arise if a director, officer or employee, or a member or his or her family, receives improper personal benefits as a result of his or her position in the Company. Any transaction or relationship that could reasonably be expected to give rise to a conflict of interest must be advised in writing and be discussed in advance with the Code of Ethics Contact Person or, if it involves the Code of Ethics Contact Person, with the Chairman of the Board.

Service to the Company should never be subordinated to personal gain and advantage. Conflicts of interest should, wherever possible, be avoided.

The Board has determined that any transaction involving the Company, on the one hand, and the Company’s directors, officers or employees, or entities in which any of the Company’s directors, officers or employees is employed or has an interest of more than 5%, or Sunstone Hotel Investors, L.L.C., Sunstone/WB Hotel Investors IV, LLC, Sunstone/WB Manhattan Beach, LLC or WB Hotel Investors, LLC or their affiliates, on the other hand, requires the pre-approval of the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee. This requirement does not apply to compensation arrangements approved by the Compensation Committee.

In addition, clear conflict of interest situations involving directors, officers and other employees may include any outside business activity that detracts from an individual’s ability to devote appropriate time and attention to his or her responsibilities with the Company or being in the position of supervising, reviewing or having any influence on the job evaluation, pay or benefit of any immediate family member.

Anything that would present a conflict for a director, officer or employee would likely also present a conflict if it is related to a member of his or her family.

III. Disclosure

Each director, officer or employee involved in the Company’s disclosure process, including the Chief Executive Officer, the Chief Financial Officer, Treasurer, Vice President-Accounting and the Director of Corporate Accounting (the “Senior Financial Officers”), is required to be familiar with and comply with the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures and internal control over financial reporting, to the extent relevant to his or her area of responsibility, so that the Company’s public reports and documents filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) comply in all material respects with the applicable federal securities laws and SEC rules. In addition, each such person having direct or supervisory authority regarding these SEC filings or the Company’s other public communications concerning its general business, results, financial condition and prospects should, to the extent appropriate within his or her area of responsibility, consult with other Company officers and employees and take other appropriate steps regarding these disclosures with the goal of making full, fair, accurate, timely and understandable disclosure.

-2-

Each director, officer or employee who is involved in the Company’s disclosure process, including without limitation the Senior Financial Officers, must:

• Familiarize himself or herself with the disclosure requirements applicable to the Company as well as the business and financial operations of the Company.

• Not knowingly misrepresent, or cause others to misrepresent, facts about the Company to others, whether within or outside the Company, including to the Company’s independent auditors, governmental regulators and self-regulatory organizations.

• Properly review and critically analyze proposed disclosure for accuracy and completeness (or, where appropriate, delegate this task to others).

IV. Compliance

It is the Company’s policy to comply with all applicable laws, rules and regulations. It is the personal responsibility of each employee, officer and director to adhere to the standards and restrictions imposed by those laws, rules and regulations.

It is against Company policy and in many circumstances illegal for a director, officer or employee to profit from undisclosed information relating to the Company or any other company. Any director, officer or employee may not purchase or sell any of the Company’s securities while in possession of material nonpublic information relating to the Company. Also, any director, officer or employee may not purchase or sell securities of any other company while in possession of any material nonpublic information relating to that company.

Any director, officer or employee who is uncertain about the legal rules involving a purchase or sale of any Company securities or any securities in companies that he or she is familiar with by virtue of his or her work for the Company, should consult with the Code of Ethics Contact Person before making any such purchase or sale.

V. Reporting and Accountability

The Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee is responsible for applying this Code to specific situations in which questions are presented to it and has the authority to interpret this Code in any particular situation. Any director, officer or employee who becomes aware of any existing or potential violation of this Code is required to notify the Code of Ethics Contact Person promptly. Failure to do so is itself a violation of this Code.

Any questions relating to how this Code should be interpreted or applied should be addressed to the Code of Ethics Contact Person. A director, officer or employee who is unsure of whether a situation violates this Code should discuss the situation with the Code of Ethics Contact Person to prevent possible misunderstandings and embarrassment at a later date.

-3-

Each director, officer or employee must:

• Notify the Code of Ethics Contact Person promptly of any existing or potential violation of this Code.

• Not retaliate against any other director, officer or employee for reports of potential violations that are made in good faith.

The Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee and the Code of Ethics Contact Person shall take all action they consider appropriate to investigate any violations reported to them. If a violation has occurred, the Company will take such disciplinary or preventive action as it deems appropriate, after consultation with the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee, in the case of a director or executive officer, or the Code of Ethics Contact person, in the case of any other employees.

VI. Corporate Opportunities

Directors, officers and employees owe a duty to the Company to advance the Company’s business interests when the opportunity to do so arises. Directors, officers and employees are prohibited from taking (or directing to a third party) a business opportunity that is discovered through the use of corporate property, information or position, unless the Company has already been offered the opportunity and turned it down, in which case the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee must approve the director, officer or employee interest therein. More generally, directors, officers and employees are prohibited from using corporate property, information or position for personal gain.

Sometimes the line between personal and Company benefits is difficult to draw, and sometimes there are both personal and Company benefits in certain activities. Directors, officers and employees who intend to make use of Company property or services in a manner not solely for the benefit of the Company should consult beforehand with the Code of Ethics Contact Person.

VII. Confidentiality

In carrying out the Company’s business, directors, officers and employees often learn confidential or proprietary information about the Company, its managers, franchisors, lenders, lessors, tenants, customers, suppliers or other parties. Directors, officers and employees must maintain the confidentiality of all information so entrusted to them, except when disclosure is authorized or legally mandated. Confidential or proprietary information of the Company, and of other companies, includes any non-public information that would be harmful to the relevant company or useful or helpful to competitors if disclosed.

VIII. Fair Dealing

We have a history of succeeding through honest business competition. We do not seek competitive advantages through illegal or unethical business practices. Each director, officer and employee should endeavor to deal fairly with the Company’s customers, service providers, suppliers, competitors and employees. No director, officer

or employee should take unfair advantage of anyone through manipulation, concealment, abuse of privileged information, misrepresentation of material facts, or any unfair dealing practice.

IX. Protection and Proper Use of Company Assets

All directors, officers and employees should protect the Company’s assets and ensure their efficient use. All Company assets should be used only for legitimate business purposes.
