Sheraton Hotels and Resorts, part of Starwood Hotels & Resorts Worldwide, Inc. (NYSE:HOT), today announced the designation of both the Sheraton Phoenix Downtown Hotel and the Sheraton Chicago Hotel & Towers as Sheraton Grand properties. Both hotels join the brand’s new premier tier of exceptional Sheraton hotels and resorts recognized for their enticing destinations, distinguished designs and excellence in service and guest experiences. The addition of the newly-minted Sheraton Grand Phoenix and Sheraton Grand Chicago represents the tier’s official debut in North America, and is a continuation of its quickly growing portfolio that currently spans Asia Pacific, Europe and South America - with more locations to be added in the coming months. Sheraton Grand is just one of many initiatives under way for Sheraton 2020, a comprehensive 10-point plan designed to solidify Sheraton as a leading global hotel brand of choice, everywhere.
“Sheraton Grand celebrates the highest-quality hotels within the Sheraton portfolio and reinforces the brand’s position as a leader and trusted voice in global travel,” said Dave Marr, Global Brand Leader for Sheraton Hotels & Resorts. “We are very proud to add Sheraton Grand Phoenix and Sheraton Grand Chicago to this premier tier, and look forward to announcing many more outstanding examples of our brand as we work toward the goal of having 100 Sheraton Grand properties by 2017.”

Sheraton Grand Chicago — situated on the Chicago River with 1,218 guest rooms and suites with views of either the Chicago River, Lake Michigan, or city skyline, Sheraton Grand Chicago includes five distinctive restaurants and bars and a state-of-the-art fitness center featuring a pool and sauna. It is also home to Chicago’s largest hotel ballroom – 40,000 square feet – with modern, customizable meeting and event space equipped for every occasion.
