Sheraton Macao Hotel to be World’s Largest

Located on the Cotai Strip, the new hotel will boast three restaurants with poolside cafes, two outdoor swimming pools and 140,000 square feet of meeting space.

Sands Cotai Central also features a Conrad and Holiday Inn. The Conrad Macao features over 600 rooms and suites in a 39-floor tower, while the Holiday Inn Macao holds more than 1,200 rooms and suites.

All three hotels will be the largest in the world for their respective brands. Eventually the entire complex will offer close to 5,800 rooms and more than 20 dining options.

Sheraton is slated to open 12 new hotels across China in 2012, reaching a total of nearly 80 hotels there by 2015. Nearly 40 percent of all future Starwood hotels opening in China will fly the Sheraton flag.

The Sheraton brand’s rapid growth is also moving Starwood closer to its goal of opening its 100th hotel in China later this year.
