Our family had the opportunity for our first stay at a Westin. It was impressive and perfect for our needs. Click here to learn Everything you need to know about the DFW Airport.
Our family fun at the Westin DFW airport was hosted in exchange for our review of this hotel, but all opinions are my own.
After our stay, we gathered our favorite parts of this hotel. Here’s the 9 things we loved at the Westin DFW airport Hotel.
1. Hotel-to-Airport Shuttle
Family fun at the Westin DFW airport happens even if you don’t stay in DFW! The Westin is so close to the airport, they offer a complimentary shuttle.
Parking is free for the night you stay at the hotel. However, even if you don’t stay the night at the Westin, you can make a reservation to keep your car on their lot for only $7/ night.
The complimentary airport shuttle runs every 30 mins from the hotel and is on-call for arrivals at the airport.
2. Watch the Planes from the Pool
A roof-top heated pool was the perfect location to watch the underside of the airplanes and they come in for a landing. My son loved seeing all the different types of planes coming into the DFW airport.
Despite being directly under the flight path, the noise didn’t bother us at all in our rooms.
3. Central Location in DFW
The Westin DFW airport is a perfectly central location as we enjoyed activities in both Grapevine and North Dallas. We enjoyed super easy access to the airport and multiple locations in the DFW metroplex.
4. Spacious Fitness and Wellness Room
Westin has a partnership with New Balance so you can rent workout clothes and shoes for $5 so you don’t have to pack them in or pack them out! What a genius idea!
I especially enjoyed the spacious new and improved weight and fitness room at the Westin DFW airport. With so many options for strength or cardio training, you’re sure to find the perfect workout for you.
5. Extra Spaces and Places
On the main level of the Westin DFW Airport, you’ll find multiple beautiful spaces for different purposes. There is a restaurant, a buffet breakfast area, a small Starbucks cafe and a snack shop.
Down the hall is a Bonvoy club that includes breakfast and snacks for platinum and above members.
In the back, you’ll find 38,000 square feet of rooms for conferences, weddings or parties of any size.
6. Updated Suites and Lobby
The Westin DFW airport recently had a massive and gorgeous new remodel of every room and suite and the lobby and restaurants. It’s so modern and beautiful. Get the same amazing location with new designs and modern space.
Executive suites have two TVs in separate locations. This was perfect for our kids and the parents to each watch what they wanted.
We also loved the modern bedding and furniture in our room. It was both functional and beautiful.
7. Beautiful Bathrooms
The bathrooms all have a lighted mirror which will cast the perfect glow for getting ready for the day or a night out. The showers are spacious with multiple showerheads. Plus, the executive suite offered a separate large garden tub.
Our toddler loved bathing while mom and dad had time and space to shower and get ready for the days. Having more space in the bathroom was such a bonus for our family!
8. Art and Beautiful Displays in the Lobby
Did you know that every Westin has a living wall display?
The chandelier in this Westin was mesmerizing. If you appreciate beautiful spaces, you will want to spend time in the lobby area of the Westin.
9. Exceptional Staff and Service
Checking in and staying at the Westin DFW airport was a delightful experience.
The staff was friendly and helpful with all our questions and needs, such as a baby crib and a swim diaper. If they didn’t have an answer they tried to figure it out. The family-friendly environment was so appreciated!
We recently bought an electric car and needed to charge it. The staff pulled out an extension cord and got him all hooked up for the night.
Our weekend stay provided family fun at Westin DFW airport. We had a relaxing and fun time enjoying all the hotel had to offer during our stay-cation. We plan on staying again to take advantage of the cheap airport parking and complimentary shuttle.
Thank you Westin DFW airport for hosting our family. We will be back!
