A short walk to Universal, and short distance to many of the sights makes this an excellent place to stay. The rooms are clean and functional. The staff friendly. The staff did more than you'd expect from a Sheraton. The room I was in had a noisy neighbour and the staff went out of their way to move me. Then... More

Stayed for 4 nights to complete a Starwoods platinum challenge. Front desk staff very friendly but had a little trouble explaining just what the club floor rooms actually were - it was simple question but really seemed to stump the staff - was finally told the rooms were a little bigger than your standard room. Upon walking into my very... More

Dear beatricepugzilla- Thank you for your recent four-night stay in our hotel and for your loyalty as a Starwood Platinum member. Although I was pleased the Front Desk staff were friendly I was disappointed they weren't better able to explain our Club Lvel rooms and amenities. We do have several different types of rooms available on our Club Level that... More

We went there from January 14-16. My daughter and I wanted to stay close to Universal Studios for our long weekend getaway. I mentioned when I reserved for the room that we will be arriving late, so when we got to the reception there was Pancho forgot his last name. He seemed like he had a long day because he... More

We actually checked out of another hotel to come to Sheraton but were very disappointed- should have stayed put where we were. We paid for a room that was supposed to be a more 'desirable' room because it had a balcony facing the pool- we were told by the reception " people pay more for this room". Firstly, to get... More

Unbelievable service........ I have stayed in countless hotels almost always luxury oriented places like Ritz Carlton or Peninsula. I can honestly say that the accommodations and more importantly the service at the Sheraton universal city was the best I have had. We stayed in the vice presidential suite which was very reasonably priced considering its ample size and magnificent panoramic... More

Although this hotel is quite out of the way for most So Cal attractions, if you're going to Universal and don't mind being out of the way, it can be the perfect spot. A shuttle is by every 10 minutes during the day to take you to Universal and City Walk where restaurants, shops and attractions abound. The hotel itself... More
