The Sheraton Incheon Hotel is the winner of best MICE hotel at the Best Brand Hotels Awards by The Korea Times. MICE stands for meetings, incentives, conferencing and exhibitions.

The Sheraton’s strength in MICE took off in 2009. The hotel is strategically located for business, cultural experience and leisure.

Songdo is regarded as a business hub of Northeast Asia and Incheon’s Free Economic Zone. The hotel is close to the Songdo ConvensiA, a convention center and the Incheon International Airport.

The hotel was the venue for a gala dinner for the 17th Asian Games held in October this year in Incheon.

The host of the dinner Tissot, a Swiss watch manufacturer, praised the venue.

“To emphasize our brand image, the hotel has set up tables with white and black covers along with silver bands on the chairs,” said Matt George, the international sponsorship manager of Tissot. “I was impressed with the entire team at the Sheraton Incheon Hotel who were professional, organized and supportive of our project. Without the contribution of each one of them, it would not have been such a success. It was a pleasure to work with them.”

The hotel has tourism spots within walking distance — Central Park, the Jack Nicklaus Golf Club Korea, Sore Port and China Town.

“Through the experience of holding numerous large international events, we are ready to provide the utmost service with excellent know-how and attention to detail.”

The hotel has 321 rooms, a fitness center, swimming pool, four restaurants — FEAST, the signature restaurant; YUE featuring Chinese food; MIYABI, Japanese; BENE, Italian; and ConneXions, a lounge — and Bb, a boutique bar. For more information and reservations, call (032)835-1000 or visit
