STARWOOD Hotels & Resorts Worldwide’s China portfolio will get a major boost when the Sheraton Macao Hotel, Cotai Central opens on September 15.

The hotel, the largest in Macau and Starwood’s largest globally, will add nearly 4,000 guestrooms and suites to Macau’s Cotai Strip.

Located in central Cotai with convenient access to shops, dining and entertainment facilities, the Sheraton Macao’s twin towers will feature seven restaurants and bars, including an all-day dining restaurant and outlets serving Pan-Asian and Italian cuisine.

The lobby will feature a dramatic four-storey atrium, complete with palm trees and a waterfall.

Facilities will include a Sheraton Club, a fitness centre, a spa, three outdoor swimming pools and over 5,000m2 of meeting and event space, including one of the largest ballrooms in Asia—able to cater for a sit-down dinner for up to 4,000 guests.

Josef Dolp, managing director Sheraton Macao told TTG Asia e-Daily: “Macau is poised to become a major contender as a MICE destination within Asia, and Sheraton Macao is prepared to meet the needs of all these travellers.”
