Following an Extensive Multi-Million Euro
Renovation, Sheraton Grand Salzburg Joins Brand’s Premier Tier of
Exceptional Hotels and Resorts around the World
Sheraton Hotels & Resorts today announced the designation of
Sheraton Salzburg Hotel as a Sheraton Grand,
welcoming it to the brand’s premier tier of hotels recognized for
their enticing destinations, distinguished designs, and excellence
in service and guest experiences. Having just completed a
comprehensive, five year top-to-bottom renovation, the Sheraton
Grand Salzburg joins a portfolio of 34 other Sheraton Grand
properties worldwide, with destinations ranging from Istanbul and
Dubai, to Beijing and beyond. Sheraton Grand is one of many
initiatives currently underway as part of Starwood’s comprehensive
plan to solidify Sheraton as a leading global hotel brand of
choice, everywhere.
“As Starwood’s largest and most global brand, we remain focused
on our work to keep Sheraton in the spotlight through the continued
growth and halo effect of Sheraton Grand,” said Michael Wale,
President, Starwood Hotels & Resorts, Europe, Africa and Middle
East. “With a refreshed and enhanced aesthetic thanks to its 10
million euro renovation, Sheraton Grand Salzburg is a best-in-class
example of the brand’s new elevated approach to design, making it
an ideal candidate for the brand’s premier tier.”
The refreshed Sheraton Grand Salzburg combines contemporary
touches with traditional Salzburg design. The hotel has added 29
new rooms and suites, and carefully restored the entire sixth floor
with tech-enhanced furnishings and premium materials, such as oiled
oak floors and bespoke wooden furniture from Tyrol. The
minimalistic design concept of the rooms is harmoniously
complemented by small details, such as the selection of black and
white pictures depicting historical Salzburg scenes. The Sheraton
Grand Salzburg also boasts an elevated dining experience with the
addition of a show kitchen to the Mirabell Restaurant, providing
guests a first-hand insight into culinary creations.
Beyond the enhancements of its renovation, the Sheraton Grand
Salzburg features 166 spacious and elegant rooms, including six Sky
Suites and a Penthouse Suite, all with city or park views of the
famous Mirabell Gardens and Salzburg’s mountain scenery. Sheraton
Club rooms and suites offer exclusive access to the Sheraton®
Club Lounge, a private space where guests can enjoy
complimentary breakfast, drinks and snacks during the day. Piano
Bar is a perfect spot for sociable hours, where guests can enjoy
creative cocktails as well as imaginative menu additions
through Paired, the Sheraton brand’s food and beverage
programme that offers small plates and eclectic bar snacks served
alongside suggested premium wines and local craft beers.
“We are proud to receive the Sheraton Grand designation,
enabling Sheraton Grand Salzburg to join the existing roster of
esteemed hotels and resorts worldwide,” said Herbert Mosbruck,
General Manager of Sheraton Grand Salzburg. “Our team and ownership
have worked diligently to ensure the hotel goes above and beyond in
design and service, and it is thanks to the team’s undying support
in providing unique experience to our guests every day that we
become a Sheraton Grand.”
A Clear Vision
Sheraton Grand is just one of many initiatives currently
underway for Sheraton 2020, a comprehensive 10-point plan revealed
in June 2015 designed to put Sheraton Hotels and Resorts firmly
back into the global spotlight. A nod to the plan’s clear five-year
vision, Sheraton 2020 also includes the launch of a new elevated
food and beverage lobby program, Paired; continuous innovation of
the Sheraton guest experience; an unwavering commitment to service
excellence; the implementation of revenue and profit-driving
initiatives to benefit owners and developers; and a goal of opening
more than 150 new Sheraton hotels worldwide by 2020.
