I recently stayed at the Westin for 2 nights for a business meeting. I cannot comment on the value of the hotel as I did not pay for it and am not familiar with the exact price. The hotel was nice and the staff was accomodating. The room was a nice size. The hotel room was very clean and the heavenly bed was comfortable as it suggests.

There are extra costs for many things including the internet ($10). The formal restaraunt was very nice. I did not expect the food to be as good as it was so that was a surprise. The service was excellent. I will say that I was disappointed with the Bar in the lobby. It was too open and there was a lounge area adjacent to it filled with children that were running around including behind my table where I was trying to enjoy a drink. That is my major complaint. Kids do not belong in bars and I dont prefer the atmosphere to be romper room when I am enjoying a cocktail. In addition check the calender at the convention center which is located across the street. This hotel will draw all of the crowds and participants from whatever events are there and it so happened that there was a national childrens cheerleading competition there this weekend (Not FUN) although this is not the hotels fault.

Overall it was a good experience and a very nice hotel. The food provided for the conference was very good as well. The hotel is located in the uptown district. There were some decent restaraunts not far from the hotel.....I would suggest RiRa's. I would stay here again

We stayed at the Omni one night and then Westin for a few. I will say that i liked the Westin better, but it is not downtown. At least at the Omni, you could walk around to the different shops and restaurants. The Westin is kind of off in no mans land. We walked blocks in the rain just to get to the sports areana. There are few if any taxis willing to help you as well.

Westin had nice linens, helpful staff, and nice amenities. Since this was New Years Eve, there was alot of younger kids partying here which was annoying being 35. They did get a little loud.

I will have a hard time choosing next time in Charlotte. I thought there were issues with both hotels. Maybe select a new one all together,

This is a top notch hotel. I traveled to Charlotte for the College Football Bowl game and stayed from December 27-31 with my wife and two teenage boys.

General Comments:
The common area around the hotel is very nice with a bar with big screen TVs, a coffee shop and a restaurant. We attended a game day function in the Grand Ball Room which lived up to its name. The staff was very friendly and helpful.

Location:
This was a perfect location for the football game. Just a few blocks and an easy walk to the stadium. It is also right next to the convention center. It was a 5-10 min walk to most of the office buildings and the restaurants in the heart of the city. That made it a little difficult at night because the hotel does not have a shuttle.

Room:
We were able to upgrade to a two room king suite with our Starwood points which gave us a lot of extra space. We were on the 13th floor with a great view of the stadium. The room had two bathrooms and two showers which made things easy with two teenagers.
Like most Westin’s the highlight of the room is the comfortable bed. The sheets, the bed cover and the mattress are all first class and extremely comfortable. The only downside of the room was a limited selection of channels on the TV. There were maybe 15-20 channels. Only ESPN – no ESPN 2, U or news, a few local channels, the weather channel only had the national forecast (no set for Charlotte), and a lot of the news channels.

Summary:
Without hesitation I would stay here again. Great location for BOA stadium. Comfortable rooms and friendly helpful staff.

Wow, what a wonderful hotel. I travel quite a bit on the east coast and find this site to be very helpful when selecting hotels. I like to see honest opionos so here is mine.

We recently visited Charlotte right before X-mas. Charlotte just opened up its light rail system and they have a stop right beside the Westin Hotel. My husband and I stayed for one night, the lobby is comfortable and has a bar to stop and get drinks.
Our room was on the 17th floor (ask for a higher floor) the view was awesome. Our room was had a relaxing king bed, I love their Heavenly line, and dual head shower, granite countertops, cordless phone and vanity mirror.
Great location.
Would not recomend using the snack machine in you room, peanuts cost $7 and candle bars are about $5. This was nice getaway and the hotel staff were very friendly.

We got this room for $109 and was by far better than the others we saw. Westin has an indoor pool however we didn't get a chance to swim because it closes at 10pm. I would recommend this hotel for just about anybody. No complaints here!!!

On our next visit to Charlotte, I will book this hotel again.
