May 2013
Dear Rich, The evolution of Sitrus on the Hill, the cosmopolitan and chic bar in the Sheraton Syracuse University Hotel and Conference Center is an interesting one. At one time in the early days, the bar was named The Regatta Tavern, and then most recently Seasons on the Hill. Two years ago, a decision was made to completely change the look of this food and beverage outlet. Boy did we. A total gut out of Seasons occurred with the concept in mind that we will charge the design team to develop a brand that would appeal to a broader audience. What became of that plan, is now Sitrus on the Hill. This sleek and very cosmopolitan concept is now a very diverse space that serves customers of all ages. Unique dining selections , jazz nights, light rock and large tailgate events make Sitrus on the Hill, the place to be for our in house guests and customers from the local community and businesses. A great Sheraton signature social hour occurs 3 days a week. This allows our discerning guests to sample and purchase top quality highly rated wines. Come join us and see the comfortable atmosphere and great service for yourself. I look forward to welcoming you!
