We bought two rooms for three nights each at this property through Priceline. We arrived late at nig
The best one word to describe this hotel is �swank�. The hotel lobby is a typical, impressive, big city hotel lobby. The hotel is comprised of two towers, a north and a south, and all have some type of city view. We checked in late in the day and the overly friendly clerk, without asking, began punching branson mo lodging valentine specials his keyboard and said he�d see how high he could get us (so we excitedly thought we�d be �hooked up� and set). In short order he found us what he described as a �great room� and handed us the keys. We proceed to the north tower and realize the room is on the 12th floor (out of 45+) and the first 10 aren�t even used as guest rooms The room was nicely decorated and pie shaped (due to the round tower exterior) but the view of the city was unremarkable. I proceeded back downstairs to see if anything else was available and another clerk worked feverously on the keyboard to find us something branson mo lodging valentine specials better. He said there were plenty of high rooms available but not with a king bed. Since we were planning on leaving immediately for dinner I offered to check-in later in the evening if there was a better room that needed cleaning. He found a room on the 36th floor that had already been vacated but still needed to be cleaned; he was able to block it for us and requested housekeeping to expedite branson mo lodging valentine specials clean up. We headed out to dinner (Wild Ginger) and when we returned were able to check-in. We walked into the room and through the curtain I immediately saw a beautiful, unobstructed, view of the Needle branson mo lodging valentine specials lit up at nite� a FANTASTIC sight to see and more of what we were hoping/expecting.
As expected with Westin properties, branson mo lodging valentine specials the bedding was great. As also expected at Westin hotels, local phone calls were expensive at 1.50 for the first 60 minutes and .10/minute thereafter (toll free calls were 2.00). At check-in we were asked if we wanted USA Today, Seattle Times, or Wall St. Journal delivered in the morning. branson mo lodging valentine specials These were included and although we requested USA Today, all 3 were delivered. I guess the newspaper selection was more of a yes/no question than a choice as all rooms with newspapers in the morning had all three in front of the door. Walls are very thin and we frequently heard doors slamming and people in the hallway, branson mo lodging valentine specials fortunately there are only about 12 rooms on a floor so the hallway traffic is minimal.
The hotel has a decent branson mo lodging valentine specials fitness branson mo lodging valentine specials area with TVs and headphones (supplied by the hotel) branson mo lodging valentine specials on each cardio apparatus; smaller free weight area off to the side with some nautilus machines and dumbbells. Pool area was nice with a large rectangular indoor pool and a hot tub. Floor of the pool was metal and if you jump on the floor everyone else in the pool can feel the vibrations. The pool area is located between the two towers and over the pool are skylights, which make for a nice view when looking upwards at the towers. You can also leave the pool area and sit outside on some deck chairs that are available. It was a bit cold for us to do this early in the morning but I imagine branson mo lodging valentine specials it would be nice to sit, relax, take in the sun and the view, above the street branson mo lodging valentine specials level of the rest of the city.
Overall a very nice hotel which I would be more than happy to stay at again, but to make the experience better, check-in early in the afternoon and/or be willing to wait while a preferred room is prepared.
We bought two rooms for three nights each at this property through Priceline. We arrived late at night the hotel was full. We were given rooms on the 6th 7th floors of the South tower. I know you were under the impression, theruare, that they did not even have guest rooms on these floors.....and they shouldn t. The rooms had views of a very high concrete wall. From our room on the 6th floor we couldn t even tell if the sun was shining. We literally could not see anything branson mo lodging valentine specials except the concrete. From the room on the 7th floor, we could see a little bit of the north tower if we craned our necks. The rooms were very nice, otherwise.
I spoke to someone at the desk the next day requested a move for one of the rooms (our kids didn�t really care about the view.). She said they were not doing room moves because they were full, but she would check to see if an exception could be made. She came back with an answer branson mo lodging valentine specials of I m sorry...we just can t do anything. I spoke to her supervisor whom she had just consulted branson mo lodging valentine specials was told that she would see what she could do--no promises.
In making my request, branson mo lodging valentine specials I took the attitude that we really were disappointed in the room after seeing the website advertising floor-to ceiling windows city views. I pointed out that I realized we were Priceline branson mo lodging valentine specials customers, but that we had in fact paid about the same price as the hotels own Internet week-end branson mo lodging valentine specials special rates. I also took the attitude that I expected the manager to take care of it. Luckily she did.
Otherwise the hotel was very nice. There was a big, busy lobby with plenty of places to sit relax or people-watch. The swimming pool had an outdoor terrace branson mo lodging valentine specials with seating sunning furniture. The location was great.
Just wanted to say that we had an overall outstanding experience branson mo lodging valentine specials at the Seattle Westin (stay was 2 nights in September 05, 112/night through Priceline) branson mo lodging valentine specials At check-in we were told we had a room with 2 queen beds. We asked for a king and it was given to us right away, although it was obvious the hotel was brimming with conventions, etc. We had a room on the 21st floor, North Tower, branson mo lodging valentine specials it was luxurious in every way and had a terrific view.
Further, branson mo lodging valentine specials the customer service at this Westin is impeccable. We were never treated any differently because we were Priceline customers. We find this (poor service, terrible room location) to be a more and more common experience the more we use Priceline. Treating Priceline customers poorly is a very short-sighted decision, as we would never go back to any hotel that does not treat all customers with the same quality of service.
I was a little apprehensive when we checked into the Westin as I had used Priceline for the first time ever and was prepared to be given the worst available room. My concerns were groundless when I saw our spectacular waterfront and city views from the 36th floor of the North tower. The hotel lobby is very large�a great place to find a big comfy chair and have some wine and nuts while people watching. There are also some beautiful glass sculptures in the lobby from the shop near the elevators�a bit pricey, but lovely to look at. Check-in was a breeze. The room itself was quite comfortable with a nice little branson mo lodging valentine specials seating area on the one side and a king side bed on the other. Better even than the view was the fantastic location of this hotel�it is a stone s throw from everything we wanted to see and do. Pike Place Market was just a few blocks away, the Monorail was across the street and Nordstrom�s, Macy s and several shopping malls are right up the street�there�s even a Seattle Mariner�s team store a block away. The Westin branson mo lodging valentine specials is surrounded by wonderful restaurants such as Dahlia Lounge, Icon Grill and Lola�and for a quick bite on the cheap, McDonalds is directly behind the hotel. There is a bus stop right out the front doors of the Westin (corner of 5th and Stewart) and since Seattle offers free bus service in the downtown area we hopped on and off the buses all day long. We also bought a bus pass ( 5 for the day) so we could travel beyond the downtown area and the pass was good on the water taxi and Lake Union trolley as well. We really enjoyed the hotel�s hot tub but the pool (supposedly heated) branson mo lodging valentine specials was too cold for me. There s a little deck outside with lounge chairs which was perfect branson mo lodging valentine specials for sunbathing and just plain vegging out after a full day of sightseeing. We loved our stay at the Westin and highly recommend it to other first time visitors to this beautiful city.
This was our first attempt at a Priceline reservation. We were pleased to have gotten the Westin at a great rate. Arrived around 8:30AM after disembarking a cruise, expecting to stow our bags until late in the day. We were immediately given a room. Clean room. Great hotel. Well worth much more than the 125 we paid. The desk clerk even took my frequent customer number in case we had any miscellaneous charges, so we even racked up some points (not for the room ).
Before we left for Seattle, we ordered and received a Passbook coupon book. Smart move. We saved 28 alone on dinner at the restaurant branson mo lodging valentine specials in the Hotel for a DELICIOUS meal I ll do the passbook thing again when traveling. It saved us about 50 around Seattle over two days.
Have had 3 heavenly stays at the Westin, branson mo lodging valentine specials two of which were booked throgh priceline. branson mo lodging valentine specials Every experience at this hotel has been positive. branson mo lodging valentine specials I have always gotten a top floor with beautiful views. Two times the view was of the space needle and puget sound, the third time was the city side which was also nice. This was very impressive to me considering I was booking through priceline. It has a pool on the 5th floor which is decent sized for the city (although the Sheraton branson mo lodging valentine specials s pool is nicer). The workout room feels weird since it has no windows at all, but it s large enough.
The customer service at this hotel is second to none. Every time I had a problem with something I got almost immediate responses. They are also very apologetic. One time they gave me a 40 meal card for a check in error. I was very impressed. I could go on all day about how I enjoy this hotel but I think I ll just leave it at this:
Stayed Sept 2009 for my very first Priceline stay. Hotel check in was smooth and I was given an upgrade according to the lady at check in. Our room was on the 28th floor and did not have a water view but did have a nice view of the city. We were placed in the north tower and had a wonderful stay. The room was clean and comfortable and had no obvious stains or broken items. Lcd TV with nice number of stations. branson mo lodging valentine specials Saw the enlosed pool but did not use it. Close to Pike s Market and the Monorail branson mo lodging valentine specials is across the street. branson mo lodging valentine specials Hotel has a lounge, restaurant, and workout facilities.
