Brand service
Starwood Hotels are well located, mainly in big cities and resorts. The criteria of group hotel location are: the development history of the region shows that there is a large and growing demand for luxury and high-end hotels providing all-round services in the region, and the space available for building the hotel site is limited, so it is quite expensive to develop this kind of space. As the largest hotel group in the luxury high-end segment of the hotel industry, Starwood's scale strongly supports its core marketing and reservation system. Starwood Hotel focuses on luxury and high-end segment market, while its various brands focus on different secondary markets in the market. Starwood hotel also occupies an important position in the casino industry. It mainly operates this business through the Caesars brand. Sheraton Hotel provides home away from home service for leisure tourists.

the way of management
Ten Commandments
Henderson left the world on September 6, 1967, but his "Ten Commandments" still remain in the world: 1. Don't abuse power and ask for special treatment. If you don't resist it, you will indulge. Don't take gifts from those who ask for them. Mary Kennedy is responsible for all the decoration of Sheraton Hotel. Mary Kennedy stood out from eight decorators after a competition. Since then, she has been employed by Sheraton Hotel Company as the general host of hotel rooms, restaurants and lobby decoration. 4. We can't go back on the confirmed room reservation. 5. Don't give orders to subordinates before they fully understand the exact purpose. 6. The advantages of running a small hotel may be a taboo in managing a large hotel. 7. In order to make a transaction, it is not allowed to squeeze the other party's "last drop of blood". 8. Cold dishes should not be served. 9. Decision making depends on facts, calculation and knowledge. 10. Don't rush to blame your subordinates for their mistakes.
the way of management
In the actual operation of Sheraton company, Mr. Henderson also has some ways of operation which are also desirable: 1. Emphasis on responsibility and diligence. 2. Emphasis on guest supervision and evaluation of hotel service quality
