The Marriott International chain of hotels has announced that Sheraton Hotels and Resorts will be coming to Guyana.
The Marriott company has signed an agreement with H-Towers Incorporated of Guyana along with the Triwest Financial Group and Black Pearl Holdings of the US for the project.
The two-tower, 200-room hotel will be built in Providence at the former HJ Water World location.
In a statement, the Chief Development Officer of Marriott International, the Caribbean, and Latin America Laurent de Kousemaeker said the company is pleased to expand its presence in Guyana and introduce a new brand to the country.
“The signing of this new project is a significant moment and the brand’s rich heritage is an excellent fit for this growing market”, the official said.
The hotel will feature a mix of king and double rooms and several suites, including a Governor’s suite and a sophisticated Sheraton Club Lounge.
In addition, planned amenities for the hotel include a swimming pool, 24-hour fitness center, specialty restaurant, meeting and conference rooms, a state-of-the-art spa, and the brand’s signature bar, coffee, and market concept.
Director of H-Towers Inc. Kerwin Bollers said “We are very honored to be given the opportunity to bring such a recognizable brand to the market,
knowing the impeccable standards Guyanese and international guests alike will enjoy,”
The project includes a residential component, as well, and 224 residences will be housed in the second tower, connecting with the hotel via a sky bridge.
Construction for the two towers is slated to begin at the end of the year, with an expected completion date in 2025.
