Location
When it comes to location, the W Fort Lauderdale does not disappoint. The hotel offers stunning views of the Atlantic Ocean, which can be admired from the comfort of your room's balcony or while lounging by the pool. Despite ongoing construction, guests can expect a great stay with the help of the kind staff. The hotel's excellent location puts you close to a variety of restaurants, bars and nearby attractions, all within walking distance. The proximity to the beach is a major highlight for many guests with some even describing it as the best location in Fort Lauderdale. The restaurant at the hotel is also a popular spot thanks to its prime location and delicious food. Overall, the W Fort Lauderdale's location is hard to beat with beautiful views and everything you need just a stone's throw away.
Breakfast
If you're looking for a hotel with the perfect combination of great pool, delicious meals and delightful morning options, the W Fort Lauderdale is your dream destination. Even though some guests mentioned the room was not child-friendly and the fold-out beds uncomfortable, the hotel's dine-in room breakfast was a hit with its tastiness and it's served until 11 am. The only downside was a lack of coffee options, but that didn't stop guests from enjoying the à la carte frühstücken. Despite a couple of negative reviews, most guests left feeling happy and satisfied with their $50 breakfast credit - a great perk for a foodie traveler!
Rooms
W Fort Lauderdale offers a range of rooms, but many guests were pleasantly surprised by their spacious and beautifully appointed accommodations with stunning views. The King Suite, in particular, was a standout with comfortable beds, an awesome ocean view and a luxurious bathtub. Although some rooms were noted as outdated and in need of serious updating, others were described as simple and modern with pleasing decor. Guests appreciated the cleanliness and comfort of their rooms, but a few reported issues such as little ants, outdated bathrooms and lack of basic amenities like robes and glasses. Nevertheless, some rooms were absolutely luxurious and impressive with features like Nespresso machines and balconies with breathtaking views. While some guests were disappointed with the pool deck and the lack of service to take their bags up, the room sizes were generally good with the exception of a few small rooms. All in all, W Fort Lauderdale offers some excellent rooms that have the potential to make your stay unforgettable.
Beds
If you're looking for a hotel with comfortable beds, the W Fort Lauderdale is a great choice! Most guests enjoyed sleeping on the super comfy and very comfortable beds. In addition to comfortable beds, the rooms are also great with one guest even calling their room "nice." And for those who like to stay active, there's a gym at the hotel too.
While some guests had issues with their rooms (such as one being outdated or having a damp smell), overall the hotel is a good pick if you're after a comfortable night's sleep. And while some guests noted that the hotel is pricey, the kuscheligsten Handtücher ever (most cuddly towels ever) and comfortable beds might make the splurge worth it.
Cleanliness
Guests of the W Fort Lauderdale have mixed opinions about the cleanliness of the hotel. While some found it to be nice and clean, others reported issues with poor housekeeping and dirty rooms. The pool areas were deemed in need of a refresh with dirty cushions and holes in towels and covers. Some guests also reported experiencing skin reactions after using the residential pool. However, the hotel's location and view were praised and some guests found their rooms to be very clean. Overall, cleanliness and maintenance were identified as areas requiring improvement by some guests.
Staff
W Fort Lauderdale is a luxurious hotel with a breathtaking view of the Atlantic Ocean, which is surrounded by a beautiful location. The staff is exceptional, friendly, welcoming and accommodating to every need of their guests. They have professional front desk employees, valet workers, housekeeping, bar staff and beach personnel who are always willing to help. Patrick, the bartender at the hotel, is truly amazing, his customer service being exceptional. Most of the customers have loved the customer service of the staff, especially the manager, Fabio and house cleaner. The hotel staff caters to their guests and the energy and valet service are amazing. The pool staff, though slow, gives good service and Corey from the front desk cares about the guests' stay. The staff was welcoming and nice, they made us feel at home, whereas the bartenders at the pool were rude and some of the staff were disrespectful. Despite a few rude employees, the majority of the staff was accommodating and polite. Despite poor service, the hotel staff was prompt to address customer service issues or concerns by making the manager always available, though some of them were unwilling to help. Overall, the hotel staff is friendly, warm and has excellent customer service. It is a wonderful hotel with a good staff that makes guests, customers and tourists feel at home.
Pool
The W Fort Lauderdale boasts an amazing balcony view for watching both the sunset and sunrise. While the main pool was under construction, guests still had a quality stay with a DJ spinning tunes and an additional pool available. Some guests noted that the pool areas could use some updating and refreshing, while others found it crowded during weekends. Unfortunately, the pool area wasn't always clean and some lounges were worn and stained. On the bright side, the reviews show that many guests did enjoy the pool and beach, including a great Sunday brunch. However, there were some issues with service, such as slow bar staff and inadequate towels at the beach and pool. Overall, it seems that the pool area is a highlight for some guests but could use some improvements in management and cleanliness.
Beach
W Fort Lauderdale is a top-notch hotel with a perfect location close to the beach. Despite occasional unavailability of beach chairs and umbrellas, guests still loved the beauty and cleanliness of the beach. Spectacular coastal views from hotel rooms with beach access were also prominent features. The hotel also provides complimentary beach and pool chairs, making it a great value for money. The beach, which is just across the street, is quiet and serene, providing the perfect atmosphere for relaxation. Additionally, guests loved the beautiful views of the ocean and intercoastal waterway, which they could enjoy from their rooms. With all these impressive features, W Fort Lauderdale stands out as an ideal hotel for beach lovers.
