Each department works dutifully and collectively in making sure that our guests have a great experience and are treated with the utmost care. Our guests form a large part of who we are and it is because of this that we are always searching for opportunities to enhance our guests' experience. We engage with our guests as much as possible. In doing so, we are able to interact with past, current and potential guests, monitoring and following up on their satisfaction with the hotel and answering any questions they may have. Building this connection with our guests is essential in establishing a trusting relationship with them. Customer engagement is critical to our success and longevity.

Over the past few months, the Sheraton Syracuse University Hotel & Conference center has been installing LED lighting in our attached parking structure in an effort to be more environmentally conscious. The hotel chose to become a part of this innovation because the energy savings and return on investment are significant. With this installation, the hotel has been able to reduce from 150 watt fixtures to 38 watt fixtures, saving 165,000 kilowatt hours annually.

LED stands for light-emitting diode. LEDs are small light sources that illuminate when the electrons present within the light source move around through a semiconductor material. The benefits of having LED lighting are numerous. LED lights reduce maintenance, energy and cooling costs. These lights provide for better lighting and are more durable than light bulbs. LED lights are more efficient and last longer when compared to other lights. The LED lights are built to withstand Central New York weather. Our chief engineer, Peter LaPage will continue this move to more efficient LEDs in the future.

About Us The Sheraton Syracuse University Hotel & Conference Center is located in the heart of the beautiful Syracuse University campus. Every aspect of our Syracuse hotel was designed with you in mind - from the Link@Sheraton to our state-of-the-art fitness center and indoor pool to our executive Club Lounge.
