    Great Staff = Great Stay

    We had a lovely stay at the W Fort Lauderdale. From check-in to check-out, every member of their team was delightful. Special thanks to the wonderful staff at El Vaz where we had the best breakfasts every morning and the valet team who were always incredibly kind and helpful. We were appreciative of the special effort management made to see how our stay was going at several points during our first few days - a very nice touch that we were grateful for. Overall, a wonderful stay due to the kindness and effort and the staff team.

    Give it a miss...

    The worst W I have ever stayed at - and I stayed at more than 30 W Hotels since the brand appeared many, many years ago. The rooms are run down and lack the W vibe which made the brand famous. The poolside is disgustingly dirty, the pool furniture is in bad repair, the area is not looked after and there are food remnants on the floor of the pool - and nobody seems to care. The breakfast restaurant is a mess, servers do not seem to care and food is mediocre at best. Did not try the steakhouse - and actually moved to another hotel after two nights. Definitely not recommend.

    Would not recommend

    i would not recommend a cabana experience at the W hotel. We spent hundreds of dollars prior to even getting to the cabana and the view itself was great. service was useless. we spend 1K prior to food and drinks and our server james was so bad i would have to go find him or go up to the bar to request someone to come to our table to order anything. At one point I was alone at the cabana and he asked if I needed anything and I didn’t but said the girls in the pool did and he said he didn’t have time/ wouldn’t go serve them in the pool? Then we automatically had to pay a 20% tip. Terrible experience all around.

    No way!!

    We stayed in Room 1530 - corner unit. If you are going to stay there, ask if the mattress has been changed! It sagged really bad. I am not sure if it is old or cheap. But it was not worth the daily rate. We have stayed at Hilton and Conrad which is beside W Hotel. These two hotels are miles ahead of this old room. The common areas are nice and that is about it.

    Beach service top notch

    Juan at the W Resort beach service was incredibly accommodating! He set up our towels and umbrella with a smile and provided us with cold complimentary bottled waters. The staff brought us frozen watermelon and pineapple on the beach and it was yummy! Highly recommend !
