MALAYSIA | Sheraton Hotels & Resorts will expand its foothold in Malaysia with the long-awaited opening of Sheraton Johor Bahru.
Sheraton Hotels & Resorts has announced the opening of Sheraton Johor Bahru, a modern landmark hotel poised to redefine the hospitality experience in one of Malaysia’s most dynamic cities. As the first Sheraton in Johor Bahru, this 345-room hotel brings to life the brand’s new vision as part of a worldwide transformation which focuses on design and experience signatures that foster community, gathering, and productivity in all areas of the hotel.
Positioned at the crossroads of culture, commerce, and connectivity, Sheraton Johor Bahru is strategically located just off the Woodlands checkpoint along the Singapore–Johor Bahru Causeway, offering effortless access to one of Southeast Asia’s most vibrant border cities. Just moments from iconic attractions such as the Sultan Abu Bakar State Mosque, Johor Bahru Old Chinese Temple, and the lively Bazaar Karat Night Market, the hotel is the perfect gateway for cultural exploration, weekend getaways, and cross-border escapes. Families will also appreciate the proximity to Legoland Malaysia and Johor Premium Outlets. Seamlessly connected to major transport hubs, the hotel is a convenient 45-minute drive from Senai International Airport.
“The opening of Sheraton Johor Bahru is a milestone moment for us, as we introduce the brand’s innovative design and community-centric philosophy to key destinations across Malaysia,” said Ramesh Jackson, Regional Vice President, Malaysia & Indonesia, Marriott International.
“With its prime location, thoughtful design, and intuitive service, Sheraton Johor Bahru is more than just a place to stay; it’s a place to belong, where guests can gather, connect, and experience the best of Johor Bahru.”
Sheraton Johor Bahru’s lobby embodies the brand’s new design philosophy and serves as the welcoming heart of the hotel, a vibrant, open space thoughtfully designed to foster connection, productivity, and a sense of belonging. Bathed in natural light, the spaces create a warm and inviting atmosphere designed to bring people together. Whether it’s families, business travellers, or weekend escapers, the lobby is a place where everyone can feel at ease. Anchored by Sheraton’s signature Community Table, the space invites guests to gather, work, or unwind in an environment that blends residential warmth with modern functionality. Guests can also retreat into the soundproof Booths, offering a quiet space with privacy without breaking the flow of the open lobby experience.
