Thoroughly enjoyed our stay here. Booked this room through Priceline, and thought we would be getting the Hyatt or Westin for the price we bid ($100US, so it was a nice surprise). The price for the valet is a bit steep ($30 +tip) but fitted in our budget and service is very efficient. We saw a bunch of nice cars... more

We're big fans of "W" hotels and always stay in one whenver possible. It was with great anticipation that we visited the new "W Fort Lauderdale" as we've been following its progress since it was announced some 5 years ago. I think it's biggest problem is that it is grossly understaffed due to the poor occupancy rate which hit it... more

Was not sure about bringing the kids (5 & 10), but they loved it also. This place makes you feel like Royalty. I really liked how much my family was pampered. My wife wants to go back just for the Bliss Spa and the kids want to go back for the pools. The localtion was perfect. One night we walked... more

Let me preface this review by saying I can understand where some people would be turned off by the music, decor, vibe etc. This isn't some Marriott that looks the same whether or not you are in Amsterdam or San Diego. That said, we loved everything about the W including our room. We are a middle-aged couple who were traveling... more

First - let me tell you that if you do not feel comfortable with your traveling partner having a first row seat to your morning shower, do not stay here. The king room showers do not include a curtain, or anything else that would stop people in your room from seeing you in all your glory. The toilet closet is... more

First, let me say that the W hotels aren't for everyone. They maintain their certain vibe and strive for word-of-mouth, so some things are a little hip and out there for some travelers. This hotel clearly is NOT for families or people with young children due to the room design. We've stayed at W San Diego, W Minneapolis, and W... more

I think Sheraton did focus groups on the worst features for a hotel and they are all here at W. It is expensive, with furniture that invites you to stand as it is uncomfortable. A driving pulsating music is present in all areas of the hotel, enough for a headache and entirely prevent one from listening to a personal music... more

It is very large and a bit overwhelming. There were lots of extra charges which were also annoying. The pool areas were not that impressive. I was upgraded to one of the condos, which was large and comfortable BUT it had the most ridiculously designed bathroom I have ever seen (see my photo). An open sink facing the bed with... more

I truly wanted to give this hotel 5 stars, after all the building is as much a work of art as it is a functional hotel. And the staff manages to be attentive and friendly without being pushy or pretentious. But there are a couple of issues that knock this rating down 1 star each: First, the amenity costs. I... more

The W in Fort Lauderdale is a new, glitzy, upscale, "on the beach" hotel with impeccable service. When you dial "O", the response is, "What is your wish today Mr. Kontos." I was tempted to get cute. I resisted. This is the kind of rock star place I have no business being in - with the $8 waters and the... more
