My stay was accommodating. The staff was helpful, the rooms were clean and the beds were comfortable. Valet parking was too expensive!

The Westin Jackson
Unfortunately the small fridge did not work properly and we had to throw away all of our food. The TV did not work properly either with no guide on it. My sisters room had all sorts of stains on the carpet along with stains on her towels. I will say the staff was absolutely fantastic and friendly. ...

You have to stay here!! The care for details is perfect. The back garden is beautiful, the perfect place to sit and enjoy a break. Each room has been designed uniquely, and the small touches of hospitality are amazing. All staff welcoming and grow the spirit of your stay. Incomparably more enjoyable ...

Hilton Jackson
The room was out of conditioner. I called room service but no one answered. Went downstairs to front desk and there were a line of people with one person working the front desk. No ice machine on our floor.

Imperial Suites - Adults Only
One of the coolest rooms I've stayed in. Just wish it had a chair/desk and two night stands. I stayed in the KING DELUXE room but it didnt quite hit the DELUXE title but well worth the money.
