I honestly wasn’t expecting much from this hotel and yet was pleasantly surprised. Rich in customer service got me everything I needed and did so quickly. Room service came exactly on time. Food was hot and delicious. Only issue I had was that the bed seemed to be a bit worn. But it did not affect my sleep. I’ve had this at the Ritz and Four Seasons. The hotel chains just don’t want to replace the beds because they’re expensive. Still great experience. I’ll be staying at the W more often. Read less

I was here for a business trip. They had room service breakfast delivered promptly at 6:30 am every morning that I needed it. The hotel swiftly handled a noise complaint. The rooms are spacious and well appointed. The staff was very friendly and welcoming. I would stay here again.
