Just as always, great stay.
Me and my family have been here so many times, I can't recall the times we've stayed here, but I can say to you now, this place is just fantastic. Alot of people reviewing this hotel have said that the rooms are smelly and the staff are rude. They are just exaggerating, they probably encountered one tiny occurence, and then got all livid and decided to write a bad review. Well, this is what the hotel is really like. Right when you get in, the staff are very polite and pay all attention to your needs. Want a sunset view? They do all they can to get you a room with one. Even down to a specific room number and floor, put it in the request on reservation and done. You arrive with what you want. If its booked, they ask you if you want the room next to it. This only happened once due to the amount of guests on that particular floor. We always ask for room 370, and we always get it. The rooms are very clean. You can just jump on the bed and expect a lovely smell of lavender plus and have a comfortable sleep. Although there's no mini fridge, we just bring a cooler to store drinks and other stuff. Bathroom is very neatly organized, amenities at what you'd expect. I read one review saying theres no shampoo. In the shower, theres is a dispenser for shampoo plus body wash! Strange... anyways, for the surrounding places for going out, couldn't ask for more cool places to go! Lots of restaurants and a diners to enjoy. The Galleria mall is great too, but unfortunatly it doesnt have that many shops youd expect. But, it does have a food court for a quick bite and a casino to enjoy. A hotel is there too, for other options. Other great places i highly recommend is clifton hill, (go on the sky wheel too, lots of fun although the carriages whistle when you get to the top, a little freaky) the skylon tower also a 5 min. walk, great for sightseeing the whole surrounding area, and finally one more place, shoeless joes restaurant. great food, great time, but if you want to have a good laugh, you have to request sitting next to the glass floor-to-ceiling dome. Not only is it cool, but you also get a view of the new hilton hotel tower. And although this sounds a little strange, you can see the people in their rooms, doing the most weirdest things, but you will have lots of fun. Me and my family were naming rooms (e.g. party-streamer room, stalker guy room) we basically named them, and even other people started joining in. Well, i think ive said enough, i really wish i could continue, but im probably boring people to death by now. Anyways, if you are looking for a good priced stay, with friendly staff, pets too, and just an all around great hotel, we recommend this hotel all the way. Thanks best western for your amazing hotel, and we will be back shortly!
