JW Marriott Hotel by the Galleria Review

On Westheimer, facing the Galleria, this high-rise hotel offers lots of amenities and a central location. Rooms are smaller than at the Westin hotels but are more attractive. The service and the amenities are better, too. Bathrooms are well lit and come with makeup mirrors and terry-cloth robes. The decor is a good-looking mix of modern and traditional. The hotel places a lot of emphasis on the beds, and it shows. They are plush and comfortable; you have a choice of two doubles or one king size with a pullout sofa. Avoid guest rooms on the fifth floor, where the health club is located -- a smell of chlorine sometimes infiltrates the air-conditioning. The hotel is completely nonsmoking.

Facilities:
Restaurant; bar; heated indoor/outdoor pool; health club; Jacuzzi; sauna; concierge; business center; salon; 24-hr. room service; massage; babysitting; laundry service/dry cleaning; concierge level

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.
