Fresh Thinking

New & Innovative Meeting Changes at Sheraton

With more people than ever working from home or hybrid, we know how important team building is when it comes to developing relationships, enhancing communication and cultivating trust amongst your team. At Sheraton Athlone Hotel, we have examined the changing needs of our clients and have recently introduced new and innovative Wellness Practices and Team Bonding Experiences to our Meetings & Events offering. We look forward to sharing them with you.

Team Building Experiences

Digital Treasure Hunt with Dynamic Events

Using our smart technology, we are now rerunning our Digital Treasure hunts. The treasure hunts involve exploring a town, city or venue using our bespoke, interactive technology as teams race to locate hotspots where they must perform fun tasks to earn points. Teams must strategise, communicate and collaborate to climb the scoreboard in a race against the clock.

Elevate Entertainment Centre

Encourage a bit of healthy competition at Elevate Athlone. From Axe Throwing and Go-Karting to Virtual Reality and Laser Tag, the fun activities will energise your team.

Yew Point Walks

Step out into the great outdoors at Yew Point Estate and experience 140 acres of unspoiled meadows and woodlands. With beautiful views overlooking Lough Ree, guests can enjoy a peaceful stroll around the 3.5km loop along the lake. Soak up the magical forest walks and stunning nature in this hidden gem.

Viking Mike Boat Tours

Viking Tours is an exciting one-of-a-kind experience. When you hop onboard the Viking-themed vessel, you step back 1200 years. This ship’s captain, Viking Mike, shares stories of the Vikings who once made their home on the shores of Lough Ree. From Easter to Halloween, the Viking Ship sails daily.
