"Less grand than most Westins, this hotel feels more like a boutique than a 259-room chain property, in part due to its intimate lobby and relatively low-rise building (eight floors)." Full review
Star Service
"The ubiquitous Heavenly Beds and Bath are the standout features here, the latter quite large and clad in Italian marble, with deep-soaking tubs, separate glassed-in stall showers with dual showerheads." Full review

"Washington's Waldorf Astoria, even designed by the same guy. A whole lotta shit has gone down in these marble halls which are literally made of marble."
