I think it’s a nice hotel however staff very snooty and if your attire is casual instead of business or evening gown attire you will be treated by staff members as beneath them. Vacationers are looked at with a potential of damaging their property for being an average person and not the elite class they are hoping for, entertainment is a piano or jazz band you have to wear evening attire for in the bar area and many hidden fees for the “privilege” of staying at their hotel and for “potential incidental “ fees to sum up rudest staff I have ever encountered and do not recommend this hotel.

My husband and I spent five nights at the Westgate for our 20th anniversary. The hotel is gorgeous and spotless. Our room was spacious and comfortable and the bathroom was larger than expected. The staff was friendly and catered to every need. My favorite amenity was the rooftop spa and pool. It is absolutely gorgeous and the pictures online don’t do it justice. There’s a spacious hot tub and pool. Large beach towels are provided as well as bar and restaurant items. There are many lounge chairs and umbrellas, as well as a beautiful fountain with tables and chairs. You will not be disappointed at the restaurant food either. The hotel location was right at the top of the Gaslamp district so we were able to easily walk to all kinds of shops and restaurants. The Westgate helped make our anniversary amazing and we will be back!

The property had a nice classic/old world feel. However they seemed short staffed, the check-in process was very slow and $40 per night to park a vehicle in the valet-only garage was ridiculous!!

The hotel is excellent but it would be nicer to make clear that parking is not free and what the charges are for valet parking. Also, I didn’t like that I had to pay $20 per person to have access to the “spa” which is just a pool because the actual spa services have only 10% off I probably belong at a different level of hotel. But overall very luxurious.

The property was clean but some of the furnishing/fixtures needed to be redone (small holes in the carpet,faucet leaked water, etc). The overall look of the hotel is quite ornate and grand in styling so I understand that it is difficult to upkeep. Excellent service and the food was delicious.
