Mmmmm….Girl Scout cookies. If you’re a fan like we are, then you’ll be thrilled to learn it’s completely acceptable to eat them for breakfast, lunch and dinner as well as anytime in-between. Don’t believe us? Just ask our Executive Chef Scott Skomal, who stopped by KUSA 9 News with the CEO of Girl Scouts Colorado, Stephanie Foote, to talk about the “Thin Mint Dinner” – a fundraiser for the Girl Scouts held Oct. 23 at the Sheraton Denver Downtown Hotel.  

Hiring great talent is one of the primary reasons we continue to be a leading hotel in downtown Denver. So it goes without saying that we’re thrilled to welcome the three newest associates to our growing team: Meg Dalbey, Sales Manager; Dustin Silks, Director of Restaurants & Bars, and Ferda Durak, Director of Six Sigma.

Some days it’s really tough to go to work…and not love every minute of it! One of those days was Oct. 13, when the Sheraton Denver Downtown Hotel was the center of a star-studded event for a great cause: the Global Down Syndrome Foundation Fashion Show – the single largest annual fundraiser benefitting people with Down syndrome.

Giving back to the community has always been a part of the culture at the Sheraton Denver Downtown Hotel. So we were excited to participate in the “100 Women, 100 Shoes Challenge” in conjunction with O, The Oprah Magazine and Crocs, Inc. The best part was raising money for a local organization – the Ronald McDonald House – but we’d be lying if we said we didn’t love our new pair of Crocs shoes! 

We just read a great article by USA Today's Nancy Trejos about hotels making it easier to stay fit on the road. More hotels are offering unique fitness programs in an effort to appeal to travelers who are committed to keeping up with a fitness routine. Not surprising, these offerings coincide with similar efforts to bring healthier dining options to hotel restaurants and room service menus so travelers can avoid packing on the pounds while away from home. 

The article highlights some fitness options available to guests at various hotels across the country, including the Sheraton (and the Sheraton Denver Downtown Hotel). Notes Trejos, "Guests at Sheraton Hotels and Resorts also have access to four 30-minute video-on-demand workouts for free" and "can order a complimentary 'workout in a bag,' including workout cards, a workout mat, foam rolls, resistance band and massage stick to be delivered to their room."
