Sheraton Phoenix Downtown has reached a renovation milestone with the completion of its 1,000-plus guest rooms. Guests are now welcomed into bright, well-lit rooms that feature 65-inch televisions, noise cancelling woven fabric paneling, height adjustable tables and more.

Once unveiled, the Sheraton Phoenix Downtown will have completely revamped the guest rooms, food and beverage, programming and lobby which will be home to the property's Club lounge. The hotel offers 110,000 square feet of meeting space, including a 27,000-square-foot ballroom, and is just a short walk away from the Phoenix Convention Center.
