That mandatory fee isn't clear when you book. Plus, Westin's low-key, feel-good features come at a price: All guests must pay a hotel services fee for the spa and steam rooms (excluding treatments), fitness center, pool, and the Unwind Event, a cocktail reception on Thursdays through Sundays. And with no entertainment in-house, guests in search of nearby nightlife will have to venture down the street to the Jubilee show at Bally's or to Margaritaville at the Flamingo. The casino is also small (though some Vegas visitors prefer that to the labyrinthine gaming centers of larger hotels). The small pool, an important element of any Vegas vacation, is made even less appealing by the monorail tracks running by it. Yet overall the atmosphere is dark, the furnishings in need of an overhaul. The spacious, well-equipped gym and luxurious full-service spa live up to what Westin devotees, including business travelers and health-conscious guests, have come to expect. True to Westin's "feel better" ethos, all the rooms come with the signature Heavenly Bed, arguably the most plush and comfortable bed around. A decade after Westin took over this off-the-Strip, 826-room, mid-priced hotel and casino (formerly the Maxim), the company has yet to bring it up to the standards of its luxury brand.
