Sheraton Norfolk Undergoes Transformation

NORFOLK, Va.

The Sheraton Norfolk Waterside Hotel will undergo a multimillion-dollar renovation, scheduled for completion in March 2018. This positions this property, Norfolk’s only hotel on the waterfront, squarely on the must-visit list when reviewing locations for your next meeting or conference.

“Our downtown Norfolk location and 35,145 square feet of conference space make us an ideal venue for corporate meetings, business galas, seminars, banquets, training sessions and interviews,” said Martha Fraser, director of sales and marketing for the Sheraton Norfolk Waterside Hotel. “We’re thrilled with all of the stunning improvements here at the Sheraton and we know that meeting planners will be delighted as well.”

The expansive lobby with a new stone fireplace has been transformed into a modern, relaxing sanctuary of open space with views of the lovely Elizabeth River. A redeveloped Riverwalk trail is just outside, beckoning guests to take a stroll during breaks or after dinner.

All guest rooms will be updated and refurbished in a functional, upscale and clean design with many enhancements to guarantee maximum comfort and productivity during a stay. Meeting attendees will find amenities such as in-room safes, refrigerators, makeup mirrors and lighting with charging/USB ports, along with new bedding, new furniture and new carpeting.

The hotel’s beautifully renovated restaurant, Waterside Seafood Company, welcomes guests for a unique waterfront dining experience in a stylish, sleek setting. Waterside Seafood Company offers a tempting menu featuring fresh-caught seafood and traditional southern cuisine highlighted by local and regional produce. A diverse selection of craft beers, Virginia wines and specialty cocktails are available to complement the dishes.

The massive revitalization project also includes the hotel’s conference center, business center, club lounge, fitness center, and the outdoor pool area. As an added bonus, the Sheraton Norfolk Waterside Hotel is conveniently situated in close proximity to area attractions and shopping – many options within easy walking distance. Adjacent to the hotel is the exciting new Waterside District, a vibrant waterfront gathering place with local, regional and national restaurants, nightlife, music and other activities.

“Norfolk is a highly desirable destination for large group meetings,” commented Fraser, noting that Norfolk was recently named one of the “50 Best Places to Travel” by Travel & Leisure magazine. “There’s a lot to love about Norfolk, and we have the best hotel location in the area. But be forewarned: You may not want to leave!”
