Sheraton Hotels & Resorts is opening the Sheraton Georgetown Texas Hotel & Conference Centre, a 222-room hotel located in the heart of Georgetown, Texas, and just 27 miles outside of Austin.

The hotel offers ample meeting space with sophisticated design, appealing dining options and convenient access to the city’s most charming attractions.

A joint venture between owners Hines and Novak Brothers, Sheraton Georgetown Texas Hotel & Conference Centre is the Sheraton brand’s 15th hotel to open in the “Lone Star State.”

“Texas is one of the top destinations for both leisure and business travellers alike, and an important market for the Sheraton brand to continue its growth in,” said Bob Jacobs, vice president of brand management, Sheraton North America.

“The opening of Sheraton Georgetown Texas Hotel & Conference Centre underscores our focus on continuously enhancing our portfolio with even more compelling options for our guests and is a valued asset to the brand.”

Featuring an upscale, Lone Star-inspired design, with rich wood accents and vibrant colour palettes, the hotel aesthetic captures the charm of Georgetown with paintings and sculptures from local artists displayed throughout the building.

The hotel’s stylish and cosy guest rooms are each equipped with all of the Sheraton brand’s signature amenities and services, including a premium sleep experience.

The property also features a heated outdoor pool, fitness centre and the Sheraton Club Lounge, which offers complimentary breakfast, beverages and evening hors d’oeuvres for Sheraton Club guests.

The uniquely designed Lobby Lounge serves as an open hub for meeting, eating and connecting. During the day, the Lobby Lounge offers a relaxed setting to work and mingle.

The conference centre offers a range of layouts and pricing options flexible enough to accommodate events of all sizes, from small social gatherings to extravagant weddings and corporate meetings.

The centre boasts 30,000 square feet of functional meeting space, including a 16,000-square-foot ballroom with 10 distinct sections, and four breakout rooms including a state of the art boardroom.

Sheraton Georgetown Texas is located about 27 miles north of Austin and anchors The Summit at Rivery Park, a new upscale residential and entertainment district. Guests can enjoy convenient access to shopping and dining in Georgetown’s Town Square.

Visitors can also explore a wide variety of nearby recreational activities, such as local wineries, preserved caves and accessibility to a gorgeous nine-mile hiking and biking trail on the bank of the San Gabriel River.
