Sheraton Hotels and Resorts is part of Starwood Hotels and Resorts Worldwide, one of the world’s largest hotel companies and its second oldest brand.

Raffles in Singapore is one of its key hotels, while Doubletree by Hilton is a worldwide brand of upscale, full-service hotels and resorts trademarked by Hilton Worldwide.
