 | |  |  | Westin Grand Bohemian: ONE OF the best in Orlando
|  |  | |  |
The hotel is really beautiful from inside. Rooms are not as big as you might expect. The best of course is the bed, where i got the best sleep in a long time.
The room didnt have enough light even when you turn all the lamps on.
There is a swimming pool, but it is not as big as it seems on virtual tour and its only 3'3" deep.
The bar and restaurant looked nice, too, although i just had a couple of drinks at the bar. I think they host a lot of private parties there because every night (i stayed for four nights) it was pretty crowded.
The worsed part was mini bar, snacks and bottled water in the room. As i understood they dont have sencors only on two bottles of water that are on the table, so as soon as you remove/take/touch the other items you will be charged. And if you want mini bar to be locked or removed they will charge you for that also (which i found out as i was checking out).
And they ask you for additional deposit (for me it was $200) which i left in cash. So when i wanted to get back my deposit at check-out i was told that i had used some items from mini bar, some snacks and water bottles (which i did not). It takes a little time to get back your money, but eventually you do.
I read about this "mini bar" rip-off in reviews before my stay there, thats why i asked front desk receptionist in first two days to remove/lock it, which they didnt because i kept forgetting to take off the DND sign on the door knob. So if they had done that they would have charged me $25 and i wouldnt know it.
I think leaving deposit in cash is better than having it taken from your credit card, at least that way you are not going to leave without your money.
The best thing i liked was that elevator works only with a room key, so nobody who doesnt have one can get in the building.
And another one - its right next to Church st where most of the night life is. Theme: HotelPrice: US$180 and up » Currency ConverterComparison: most expensiveDirections: Downtown Orlando near Church st station
