TORONTO, Canada
A landmark Toronto meetings property is set to begin a major guest room overall this fall, following recent improvements to its green elements and meeting space—which now exceeds 130,000 square feet.
Starwood Hotels & Resorts will embark on a $90 million renovation of the Sheraton Centre Toronto, resulting in a floor-to-ceiling transformation of the hotel's 1,371 guest rooms and suites. The revival of the Canadian flagship Sheraton property will begin in early November bringing rich colors, graphic patterns and clean lines and a new energy -efficient HVAC system. This comprehensive refurbishment is slated for completion in 2015.
The completed renovation will include full guest room and suite refurbishment, as well as replacement of all floor and wall finishes in public corridors and hallways. As a part of the re-design, the hotel will add two new guest rooms bringing the total room count up to 1,373. After completion of the renovation, all guestrooms and suites will feature new case goods, seating, lighting, mirrors and window treatments.
Additional features will include:
- Wall-mounted 50" flat panel televisions in all guest rooms and suites.
- All-white Sheraton Sweet Sleeper® bed, designed to meet AAA's Five-Diamond Award® criteria.
- Completely renovated bathrooms featuring low-flow toilets, shower heads and faucets reducing water consumption throughout the building. Some of the renovated bathrooms will feature walk-in showers.
- An energy-efficient, Variable Refrigerant Flow HVAC system which allows guests to control the thermostat in their room, providing personalized comfort regardless of the season.
- Technologically enabled guestrooms featuring wired and wireless Internet platform.
Earlier this month the hotel completed a $13 million retrofitting of all guest room windows, helping to reduce energy consumption and making the hotel more energy-efficient overall, reducing energy consumption by 30 percent and water consumption by 20 percent by the year 2020.
Additionally, the hotel recently completed renovations to its meeting space, refurbishing the meeting rooms on the Mezzanine and 4th floor as well as expanding to more than 130,000 square feet of event space with the addition of the Provincial and Willow Ballrooms.
Located in downtown Toronto, the Sheraton Centre Toronto Hotel is connected to the PATH, a 16-mile underground network of shops, including the popular Eaton Centre Mall.
