We got a day pass for the pool. We had the best day! Our server Jose was so wonderful, as was Leo. It was such a beautiful view, fun atmosphere, great food and drinks, and incredible service. The pool was nice and warm and all the staff were so kind. I would go back for sure.

What happened at W Fort Lauderdale was theft. During a recent business trip, personal belongings of significant value were stolen from my hotel room. Although the hotel acknowledged responsibility, they limited their response to reimbursing the value of the items — USD 979 — refusing any additional compensation for the emotional and professional harm caused. What’s most concerning is not just the material loss, but the complete lack of empathy, accountability, and timely communication. Responses were delayed, the issue was downplayed, and they invoked a supposed legal cap to avoid taking full responsibility. This is not the level of service one expects from a five-star hotel. I travel frequently for work and stay in top-tier hotels — I’ve never experienced anything like this. It’s simply unacceptable. Incidents like this need to be brought to light so other travelers are aware, and so hotel chains — especially those that promise excellence — are held to the standards they claim to uphold.

(Jah’Senya and Nakeisha) They answered all my questions and were a pleasure to work with. During my stay Andrew and Fabio at living room bar were also nothing short of amazing. Their knowledge and expertise was very impressive. Lastly, Odonel Philippe also was very helpful with a very small issue in my room. I appreciate his willingness to help. Overall my experience was a 10/10. Will mostly definitely recommend and return in the future. Read less

He upgraded us we received a text asking if everything was to our liking. Jonathon and Manuel sent up a bottle of champagne. If you are thinking of staying at the W fort lauderdale, think no more. A staff member named Chris used his personal phone to help us rent bikes. All staff we encountered were exceptional!! Read less
