Personally, I am a much bigger fan of the Westin brand. Overall I find that I get a better value for my dollar at Westins. It seems to me that W's charge you for the quasi hip vibe that they attempt to create. I also get better treatment as an SPG Platinum member at Westins over W's.

Additionally, I like to use the pool and/or hot tub when I travel and I find that most W's don't have these facilities.
