Thanks all for the suggestions and rec.s

I was leaning toward the W as it was so close. When people say the rooms are small, just how small are we talking? It is my wife and her friend going so they will need two beds in the room.

The brunch at the the Sheraton sounds good svpii, thanks for suggesting it.

Does any one have anything to say pro or con the Pickwick or the Argent?

The final choices will be:

Marriott, Sheraton, W, Pickwick or Argent

Do any of the above have a health club that really stands out from the rest?

Just remembered that Marriott gives 3 miles per $1 spent for AA vs the standard 500 mile per stay. That's 3000-4500 miles vs 500 so it will be my #1 choice.
