I also stayed at this hotel last year and found it pretty tired. It's a nice building with a lot of history, but it feels more like a an old hotel than a nice historic renovation. If you are looking for alternatives, take a look at the IC there. It's a little out of the way as far as tourist destinations and nightlife, but the taxis are cheap and they have a decent lounge.

any recent stays at this hotel? i'm heading down there next week and just wanted to know what to expect. based on the most recent threads, i'm not expecting that much, but the location seems to be pretty decent.
my company rate is pretty good there, so hence the choice.

My stay was late last year. Lounge is decent but not on par with say Singapore or Sydney Marriotts. Its an older hotel and it shows. Internet is decent. Location is very nice if doing touristy things.

The hotel itself is not any better or worse than the Marriott.. Marriott is classy old (100 years), the Sheraton is just 60's old. Both have been updated and renovated but sometimes its luck of the draw what room you get.

Does anyone have a manager or PR person's email for either hotel (Marriott or Sheraton)? All I can find is the general reservations email, which never gets a response.

It is a standard FS Marriott where nothing struck me as exceptional, but at the same time nothing was bad. Staff members were pleasant and service was fine. I would stay there again.

I like the Plaza Marriott quite a bit. I am 50/50 on getting an upgrade to a 2-room suite. Lounge is average....good Hotel location.....The Grill downstairs is a great place to get a steak in town. Maybe one of the top 5 places.
