What to expect: There is more greenery here than can be expected at an airport hotel, with trees and shrubbery surrounding the outdoor pool and landscaped gardens in front of the entrance. The entrance itself is a magnificent 10-story lobby atrium, a sweeping expanse of marble, glass, and foliage. The Westin was designed to give a resort feel to the business hotel to serve both business and leisure travelers?an "oasis at the airport," they call it. As with many of the Atlanta airport hotels, the weekday business crowd gives way to the weekend leisure crowd. Amenity highlights: Westin has a three-pronged approach to what it believes guests in the new millennium desire most: good sleep, good shower, and a good workout. That's why all Westins are equipped with the Heavenly Bed, and will soon be equipped with the Heavenly Shower, a chrome dual-head shower with more power, wider water coverage, and multiple spray options. (Heavenly Shower toiletries are already standard in rooms.) Also, fitness centers will all be overhauled to reflect the needs of the health-conscious traveler. Insider tip: Where else can guests get Little Caesar's pizza and Krispy Kreme doughnuts delivered to their rooms at 3 AM? The Westin combines these business partnerships with its 24-hour room service to make sure guests will never lack for comfort food.
Because of its proximity to the airport, recreational opportunities are few in the area immediately surrounding the Westin. But it is only 12 miles to downtown Atlanta, where activities are limitless. Golf courses and a driving range can be easily accessed from the hotel.
