Bakit Ito Minamahal ng Mga Tao
- The 32nd-floor indoor pool and gym with panoramic downtown views
- Spacious Corner King Suites that feel like apartments
- Central location inside the historic One Main Place building
Mabilis na Sumisid: A solid business hotel with killer views that struggles with street noise and inconsistent housekeeping.
Sinuri ng @travelswithbrandy: I checked into the Westin for a quick business trip and was blown away by the fitness studio—it's huge! The indoor pool on the high floor was the perfect quiet escape after a chaotic day downtown. If you need to work and workout, this is the spot.

Reality check
Inconsistent cleaning is a frequent gripe—some rooms are spotless, others have missed trash or bathroom grime.
- You prioritize a high-floor view and a lap pool
- You are attending an event at the Kay Bailey Hutchison Convention Center (10-min walk)
- You want a spacious suite for a fraction of the price of nearby luxury boutiques
Kalinisan & Pagpapanatili

- Housekeeping: Inconsistent. Reports of missed trash, un-vacuumed carpets, and 'forgotten' rooms.
- Bathroom hygiene: Hit or miss. Some guests report sparkling marble; others found hair in drains or grime in corners.
- Maintenance: Aging infrastructure. Complaints about broken AC units, peeling wallpaper, and slow drains.
- Linens & towels: Generally good—Westin's 'Heavenly' brand standard usually holds up here.
- Odors & scents: Lobby smells of signature White Tea scent; some hallways have lingering musty/damp odors.
