Frommer's Review

The Westin completed a C$6-million renovation in 2006, with newly upgraded rooms and a new lobby. Despite its anonymous business-hotel exterior, the interior has a subtle western feel that's reflected in the Mission-style furniture, sunny colors, and period photos. Beautiful barn-wood breakfronts and lowboys dispel the feeling that you're in one of the city's most modern properties. While standard rooms are very comfortable, corner suites come with balconies. For extra quiet, request one of the Tower rooms, which are normally reserved for business travelers. The Westin also offers high-speed Internet throughout, large working desks, and two-line phones. Upgraded "Heavenly" beds ensure a good night's sleep while dual shower heads enhance your morning ablution. The hotel rolls out the welcome mat for kids, with a "kids club" offering children's furniture, babysitting, and a children's menu -- and even games and special treats from room service. Special needs are anticipated, from strollers to room-service delivery of fresh diapers. Even dogs, which are welcome, have specialty beds!

Facilities:
4 restaurants including Starbucks and the Keg; lounge; panoramic rooftop indoor pool; health club and spa, sauna, and whirlpool; concierge; business center; 24-hr. room service; laundry service; same-day dry cleaning

About Our System

Frommer's ranks every hotel, restaurant, attraction, shop, and nightlife establishment it reviews for quality, value, service, amenities, and special features using a star-rating scale, an expression of the strong compare-and-contrast opinions that are a brand hallmark.

Other ratings provide stars based primarily on price and amenities; the Frommer's star rating is meant to quantify the kind of intangible, experiential elements that help travelers make informed decisions.

The "baseline" recommendation is zero stars--every hotel, restaurant, attraction, shop, and nightlife establishment that Frommer's chooses to review is recommended; otherwise, we simply wouldn't include it.
