The Westin Atlanta Airport is near completion of a multi-million dollar renovation to the hotel’s 500 guest rooms, reinforcing the commitment of the renewal of guests during their stay. The rejuvenation of the guest rooms is part of a $18 million renovation which will also include improvements to meeting space, the lobby and the hotel’s exterior.

The hotel’s mission of renewing, relaxing and reviving each hotel guest is evidenced by the special touches in each guest room including: the heavenly sleep experience of the newest version of the Westin Heavenly Bed®, new carpeting, 32" LG® flat-screen televisions with jack pack connections that allow guests to utilize the 24-hour High-Speed Internet Access, listen to their iPod® and watch television from the same source, among other amenities. Adjoining every bedroom is an elegantly tiled bathroom featuring Westin’s rejuvenating Heavenly Bath®, with its fully customizable shower, the back-lit Westin Heavenly Mirror, and spa-like amenities.

“The renovations complement our impeccable service, offering a relaxing stay for harried travelers,” General Manager Bill Henderson said. “When a guest chooses to stay with us, our commitment to renewal, service and loyalty will leave a lasting impression.”

The guest room enhancements confirm the Westin Atlanta Airport’s dedication to providing the business traveler with a relaxing experience. Other services that the hotel provides to allow business travelers to travel effortlessly:

• BAGS - hotel skycap service that allows guests to check their luggage and receive their boarding pass in the hotel lobby.
• 24-Hour Room Service - around the clock in-room dining for guests arriving on late flights from Hartsfield-Jackson International Airport.
• Real Time Fight Info (coming in late 2008) - guests can check on the arrival/departure times of flights from the hotel lobby or the comfort of their guest rooms.
• Flight Check-In – guests can check-in and print their boarding passes at the front desk or through the BAGS service.
