The largest Sheraton in Macau
Starwood added a feather to its global portfolio by launching the largest Sheraton property in Macau.
The fact that the 75th anniversary of the Sheraton brand and the opening of the largest Sheraton in Macau were celebrated together on September 20, 2012, the moment became magnanimous. The opening of the hotel was celebrated across the Cotai Strip with fireworks sparkling the open sky. As Sheraton Macao Hotel, Cotai Central opened its one of the two towers for the public the property also marked a beginning of a new era for Macau, as it is the biggest hotel in the city. “The opening of Sheraton Macao Hotel, Cotai Central represents a historic milestone for Starwood, for Sheraton, and for the hospitality industry as a whole,” said Frits van
Paasschen, President and Chief Executive Officer of Starwood Hotels & Resorts. “Boasting unparalleled brand recognition and a rich legacy in Asia Pacific, Sheraton is the ideal fit for this spectacular new hotel in Macau, as the brand continues to lead Starwood’s growth in the region,” he added.
The hotel scores on its inventory of 3,896 guestrooms which makes it the biggest in Macau. There are two towers viz. Sky (with 1,829 rooms, the 13,000-square-foot Sheraton Club Lounge, the Kashgar Grand Ballroom and additional meeting space) and Earth (having 2,067 rooms, as well as two more outdoor pools). The latter is scheduled to open early next year.
