1. Would have eliminated the obsolete bathtub in the remodeling, and do a shawer door instead.
"Perfect and practical. " Read full review on TripAdvisor   3/9/2012 Vote      
2. Great to park free, stay in a beautifully remodeled hotel, and enjoy walking right off the elevator to shop in the Galleria.
"Check for last minute deals on website! " Read full review on TripAdvisor   12/25/2011 Vote      
3. The workout room was closed for remodeling, and the hotel has no onsite restaurant, referring guests instead to the Daily Grill next-door, where breakfast entrees with eggs start at $12.
"Fabulous beds, pricey location. " Read full review on TripAdvisor   10/12/2011 Vote      
4. I wonder if since creating the next higher level of Westin's as in 'W' hotels they can't spend any 'updating remodeling' money on older properties?Here's the review: Boring beige/white rooms, lumpy pillows, average bathroom and bathroom amenities, okay room service menu and EXCELLENT LOCATION.
"Is This The Ugly Stepsister Of The Westin Hotel Chain? " Read full review on TripAdvisor   2/12/2011 Vote      
5. The Good - the hotel is attached to the Galleria mall which makes shopping easy and a plethora of eating choices; the sports bar, while not fancy, had a really good saladThe Bad - the building is old, and while apparently being remodeled, the remodel is obviously very skimpy; why wouldn't you replace chipped wood, dinged doors, dirty/backed-up tubs, noisy A/Cs and popcorn ceilings if you are going to go through the remodelling effort?The Ugly - the service is subpar and not nearly up to SPG/Westin standards - examples: 1) No one working the Preferred/Platinum desk at checkin (had to ask and ended up taking longer than if I had stood in the regular checkin line)2) TV didn't work - had to call a second time after waiting 2 hours3) Valet wouldn't answer phone in the morning for request to pull around car, when I went downstairs and they did pull the car around, they blocked the driveway with another customer's car while they unloaded many boxes despite my request to pull to the side so I could leave4) The gym is actually across the Galleria mall at the Galleria Westin (different hotel); this is not obvious in the hotel's guide bookDefinitely will never stay at the Westin Oaks again, even if I have to stay at a non-Starwood property.

6. I arrived late at night and checked into one of their 'recently remodeled' rooms, only to find out at 11 pm that there was no hot water to take a shower.
"Awful " Read full review on TripAdvisor   9/8/2010 Vote      
7. This was advertised as a complete remodel NOT SO MUCH.
"PASS ON THIS ONE! " Read full review on TripAdvisor   7/23/2010 Vote      
8. Why would an elevator would stop at a floor unless it was called? The staff assured me that the Hotel is due for remodeling sometime this year (2010).
"Not a 4 Star Hotel " Read full review on TripAdvisor   6/25/2010 Vote      
9. In fairness to customers, this should be listed as a 3 star hotel, until some serious remodeling is done.
"GREAT location! Dated Hotel! Free Mall Parking! " Read full review on TripAdvisor   3/4/2010 Vote      
10. Could definitely use the remodel I'm hearing will take place.
