As good as it gets!
The brightest spot on my trip to Erie. What a beautiful waterfront, and the Sheraton is the best hotel there. Clean room, spectacular views, and friendsly service. All for a very affrodable price. I go to Erie often and will certainly make this my go-to hotel stay.

Facilities - engineering has not checked or did not clean the HVAC filters. No exhaust ventilation in bathroom. Not enough light in the bathroom. Housekeeping - the lower shower door track needs deep cleaning. Shower door needs adjusted, it does not roll easily.

This is a property in transition, so be aware. They were terribly understaffed in all of the common areas—to the point that they had no one to stock the bathrooms. When I went to let the front desk know, they said that the next shift would have to deal with it (many hours away). The “club floor” had woefully limited bites of food (a few scraps of meat and maybe a dozen crackers… more suitable to feed one person and not the group of us, quizzically eyeing it), and the room was the tiniest of spaces. It might have been a converted hallway. No water available.. It was all very strange. I think that maybe all of the waterfront hotels are really one, and the other hotel maybe had more need of staff while we were there? Maybe? Even so, the attached restaurant shut down more than half of its seating area (despite there being an hour wait for a table). But still— the room had a lovely view. Just bring your own food.

This beautiful waterfront hotel has a wonderful patio and a long walkway right along the water. Being on the water and the expansive view of the lake was the big draw for us. We found the hotel to be modern, clean, and comfortable. The beds were spotlessly clean and comfortable. The room was surprisingly quiet considering all that was going on at the hotel i.e. bars, restaurants, fire pit, swimming pool, party boats. We never heard a thing. It was so convenient to have 3 restaurants to choose from right at the hotel. We didn't have to leave the hotel for anything. We ate at Rum Runner's Cove which was attached to the hotel and had indoor and outdoor seating on the water. We watched the sunset and the boats coming in and out of the marina as we ate. The food and service were excellent. The granddaughters had breakfast at the buffet on the 8th floor. We slept well and had a comfortable stay. Kevin at the front desk was so courteous, knowledgeable and helpful when I was making my reservation and during our stay. I would definitely recommend this hotel for your visit to Erie! You won't be disappointed and we look forward to staying at the Sheraton Erie Bayfront Hotel again!
