There aren\u2019t many luxury hotels in Asuncion and I decided to book the Sheraton Asuncion Hotel which is considered the best hotel in Paraguay. I booked the Sheraton Asuncion for two nights on a 5,000 Starpoints and $75 USD cash rate which was a bargain compared to the $225+ room rates. Part 1 (this review) will focus on the room aspect while Part 2<\/a> will focus on the Sheraton Club Lounge evening appetizers and restaurant breakfast.<\/p>\n

I took a public bus from Silvio Pettirossi\u2019s Asuncion International Airport and luckily there was a stop opposite of the Sheraton Asuncion Hotel.<\/p>\n

\"sheratonasu1\"<\/a><\/p>\n

The lobby was quite exquisite and I felt like I was in a luxury hotel. Of course this doesn\u2019t automatically translate that all the rooms are equally as nice since many hotels are deceiving with their luxurious lobbies.<\/p>\n

\"sheratonasu2\"<\/a><\/p>\n

The front desk agent advised me that I had been upgraded to a one bedroom suite and asked me for my choice of Platinum welcome amenity. In foreign countries, I always ask what the \u201clocal gift\u201d is in lieu of the usual 500 Starpoint amenity. In this case, he told me that it was a gift box full of soap and I was totally intrigued. He went to the back office and brought it out to show me what it was.<\/p>\n

\"sheratonasu4\"<\/a><\/p>\n

There were actually 6 bars of handmade unique scented soaps which I valued at more than 500 Starpoints and it came in a wooden gift box which is great for gifting.<\/p>\n

\"sheratonasu5\"<\/a><\/p>\n

The suite living room consisted of sofa, coffee table, TV, and a dining room table with seating for four.<\/p>\n

\"sheratonasu7\"<\/a> \"sheratonasu8\"<\/a> \"sheratonasu9\"<\/a> \"sheratonasu10\"<\/a> \"sheratonasu11\"<\/a><\/p>\n

The bedroom consisted of a Sheraton Sweet Sleeper King size bed, plush chair with ottoman, executive desk, and a TV.<\/p>\n

\"sheratonasu12\"<\/a> \"sheratonasu13\"<\/a> \"sheratonasu14\"<\/a> \"sheratonasu15\"<\/a><\/p>\n

The bathroom was small and consisted of a single basin sink with the usual Sheraton bath amenities, a toilet, bidet, two bathrobes, a bathtub with a handheld attachment, and a seperate standing shower.<\/p>\n

\"sheratonasu16\"<\/a> \"sheratonasu17\"<\/a> \"sheratonasu18\"<\/a> \"sheratonasu19\"<\/a><\/p>\n

I had a hotel pool view and a city view of Asuncion.<\/p>\n

Continue to Part 2 where I review the Sheraton Club Lounge and Restaurant Breakfast<\/a><\/p>\n
