Marriott's Transformation of Sheraton Hotels in Canada Continues

(13 Apr 2022, 11:25 +07)  Three flagship Sheraton hotels in Canada now feature the brand’s new modernized look following extensive renovations.

The hotels - Sheraton Gateway Hotel in Toronto International Airport, Sheraton Centre Toronto Hotel and Le Centre Sheraton Montreal Hotel - join the growing number of properties around the world to showcase the brand’s design transformation, with nearly 50 hotels expected to be completed by year’s end.

“This marks another significant moment for Sheraton as our new vision arrives in Canada and continues to build momentum for our transformation journey around the world,” said Amanda Nichols, Global Brand Leader, Sheraton Hotels & Resorts. “We have long been part of the social fabric of communities across Canada and as travel resumes, we look forward to welcoming guests into this exciting new chapter for Sheraton.”

In addition to seamless technology integration and an elevated F&B philosophy, the layered design aims to create an environment where guests feel comfortable and at ease, whether working, meeting or relaxing.

Sheraton Gateway Hotel in Toronto International Airport

The 484-room Sheraton Gateway Hotel in Toronto International Airport, the only property directly connected to the terminal, has completed a massive 2-year, $30 million makeover.

The lobby of the hotel now serves as the heart of the guest experience featuring brand signatures such as the Community Table, The Studios, sound-proof Booths and More by Sheraton – the brand’s signature bar, coffee, market concept.

Additional amenities include a Sheraton Club lounge, swimming pool and whirlpool, 24-hour fitness room and Peloton studio, updated meeting spaces, and completely remodeled guest rooms and suites.

“The transformation is nothing short of a metamorphosis,” said Douglas Brennan, General Manager, Sheraton Gateway in Toronto International Airport. “We’re excited to welcome guests to discover our modernized look.”

The hotel has been completely reimagined with renovations and enhancements from top to bottom that will continue to roll out throughout 2022 and mark the most extensive renovation in the hotel’s 50-year history.

As part of the first phase of the property’s reimagining, the exclusive Sheraton Club on the 43rd floor will feature a new look, experience, and service style from October. Available to Marriott Bonvoy Elite members and guests who upgrade their stay, the premium 15,000-square foot gathering space offers multiple food and beverage offerings, premium amenities, enhanced connectivity and 24/7 access to provide a private environment.

The second phase introduces two new F&B outlets including the recently opened Dual Citizen – a coffeehouse style grab and go during the day, transitioning to a lobby bar in the evenings. Opening this spring, 43 Down will be a departure from the traditional hotel restaurant. With its beverage-forward concept, 43 Down focuses on mixology as an art form, delivering classics through handcrafted cocktails.

The final phases are expected to roll out this spring with the unveiling of the brand’s signature Community Tables, tech-enabled Studios, soundproofed Booths, and purpose-built workspaces, found in the expansive hotel lobby.

The indoor/outdoor heated pool experience is slated to re-open in summer 2022.

“It’s been an incredible journey watching the vision come to life. We’re bringing something entirely new to Toronto’s downtown core,” said Tim Reardon, General Manager, Sheraton Centre Toronto Hotel. “Already, we’ve had the pleasure of watching our guests admire the purposeful design elements and service upgrades in our Sheraton Club which opened this past fall. We cannot wait to welcome our guests back to see our completely transformed lobby area, food and beverage outlets, indoor and outdoor pool, as well as the exterior and port cochere.”

Le Centre Sheraton Montreal Hotel

Located in the heart of downtown Montreal, the newly renovated Le Centre Sheraton Montreal Hotel is ready to welcome guests to its 825 newly renovated guest rooms and suites.

The light-filled spaces, ranging in size from a generous 310 sqft to a sprawling 1,956 sqft for the Presidential Suite, feature new tools for productivity, such as a height-adjustable work table, integrated power and charging and layered lighting.

The Sheraton Club, located on the 37th floor of the hotel, is expected to reopen in May 2022.

The dynamic hotel has always been a preferred choice for leisure travelers, prized for its central location and ‘urban oasis’ offerings including sixth floor terrace, indoor lap pool, jacuzzi, spa, and 24-hour Sheraton Fitness Centre.

“Conveniently located in the bustling city center, the hotel is an ideal starting point to discover all Montreal has to offer, in a refreshingly contemporary environment,” said Bertil Fabre, General Manager, Le Centre Sheraton Montreal Hotel.

The three newly reimagined hotels add to the growing number of transformed properties in Canada including Sheraton Laval Hotel. In total, Sheraton has nearly 20 hotels in the country with six slated for transformation completion by end of 2023.
