I noticed that no one has mentioned the W Fort Lauderdale. When I stayed there a few years ago, I was upgraded to a great room with an oversized bath & a wonderful view. I thought the pool deck area and lobby were amazing. I took advantage of free local transportation and found my interactions with staff friendly and genuine. I did not care for the stingy Plat breakfast benefit which did NOT include any offering at the main restaurant - BUT I really enjoyed my stay. Objectively, I can see how others would pick the W South Beach (which is beautiful & where I received a nice suite upgrade) over the W Ft L, but somehow I wouldn’t.
Based on the above comments, I think Ill try the W Boston very soon. Thanks!
