47 woman this month | May 2012 | Expecting Excellence SHERATON BAHRAIN HOTEL Woman This Month takes a peek inside the grand doors of one of Bahrain’s most prestigious hotels. Nestled in the heart of the diplomatic district of Bahrain, The Sheraton Bahrain Hotel is a welcome resting place for business visitors and tourist travellers alike. Stay With 256 different guest rooms — encompassing everything from the classic twin bed to the enormous royal and executive suites — you are sure to find just the perfect spot to lie your weary head after a long day’s work or exploration. Those who opt for the “club” rooms and above can avail themselves of a personalised butler service, complimentary refreshments and snacks, use of the Sheraton fitness centre and a range of other V.I.P. amenities. Eat If it’s great food you require, then great food you shall have. The hotel has three delightful restaurants, as well as a selection of other lounges and cafés. Check out Soie for some delicious Chinese cuisine. Seafood specialities include Kung Pao crab ,shrimp balls with sour sauce and steamed lobster. If it’s something a bit more traditional to the region that you crave, you should definitely pop down to the beautiful Golestan restaurant. With such a beautifully modern, turquoise and white setting, you’d be hard pressed to find a more suitable business-lunch environment. With “express” lunches available for as little as BD10 throughout April, the busy worker is sure to find something delicious and cost-friendly to snack on. If neither of these takes your fancy, why not try out Al Safir, for international cuisine; the An Nada sunset lounge, for snacks and live entertainment; or Espressamente Illy, for a coffee of your choosing. Unwind For those of you needing a little relaxation, look no further than the hotel’s leisure and recreation facilities. The Sheraton Fitness is full of state of the art cardio and weights equipment — a perfect way to do some stress busting. Once you’ve sweated out the toxins in the gym, you might as well nip into the steamroom to give your airways a deep cleanse too. On the roof you will find an outdoor, temperature controlled pool and jacuzzi, but also a set of rooftop tennis courts for those keen to team up. If you are really in need of some deep relaxation, you should book yourself in for one of the Sheraton’s massages. Work If it’s business rather than pleasure that brings you to Bahrain, make sure you check out the hotel’s nine meeting rooms, designed to hold anything between eight and 800 people.
