Our room at the Westin Milan had a sauna in it. It was a nicer room with a view but not a suite. I'm not even a sauna person but I had to go in because it's not often that your room has a sauna!

Naka Island villas have saunas (and steam rooms), and Suites at the Astir Palace in Athens also have steam rooms.
Both in a climate a bit too warm to really enjoy them, I think.

From my personal experience, I had a 1 bedroom suite at the St. Regis in Aspen that was great and we were the first people to stay in it after the renovation. Also, I don't remember the name of the suite, but the other standout for me were the rooms at the Hotel Imperial in Vienna.

My best suite upgrades have not been at Starwood: Two level suites with amazing views at Lake Louise (before it was Fairmont) and Versailles (before it was briefly Starwood), plus a top floor suite with a huge terrace looking over the canal at Hotel d'Europe in Amsterdam (LHW).
For ordinary rooms, IMO the best Starwoods are at Canyon Suites and Singapore StR. Westin Tokyo is good for Tokyo since their rooms are relatively large.

Tambo is great - and the property is one of the best in the market.
In Spain, we had an amazing suite at the Alfonso XIII (Sevilla) and were very well taken care of in Madrid (Westin Palace), but the room in Madrid wasn't "spectacular".

I've not stayed in it but did get a tour of the Cupola Suite at the Westin Rome, stunning. I think it's about 11,000 square feet.

Agreed. Even the Junior Suites at the Westin Palace Madrid feel majestic.

I can't remember the room type but I stayed in a fantastic large room at the St. Regis Florence, the quality of the finishes and furnishing was top notch.
