Starwood Hotels & Resorts Worldwide has announced a huge renovation project at the Sheraton Universal Hotel in Hollywood.
The US$30m renovation will be completed by mid-summer 2008, Starwood says.
The property is managed by Starwood Hotels and owned by Destination Hotels & Resorts, which owns or manages more than 30 properties in the US.
Work will include upgrades of all guest rooms and certain public spaces, including the new Sheraton park-like lobby experience and the Link @ Sheraton.
After renovation the property will offer 451 guest rooms, several specialty suites, poolside Lanai rooms, private dining rooms and two bars, semi-private cabanas in the lobby bar and a pool area.
More than 30,000ft² of indoor and outdoor meeting space and a more extensive pool renovation are slated for 2009.
