    Located at the epicenter of all that’s vibrant on Fort Lauderdale Beach, W Fort Lauderdale is the ideal escape after a $55 Million Dollar renovation (completed 2018). Its new public spaces, guest rooms and amenities are inspired by the blue hues of the sea and quintessentially capture all that shimmers on Fort Lauderdale Beach. Soak in the sunshine at one of two WET Decks, each with infinity pools, bars and private cabanas. Fuel up before the start of the day with our beach boot camp & sunrise yoga or muscle up the strength at our 24 hour FIT Gym. Get your glow on at our spa or indulge beach side at James Beard Award Winner Stephen Starr’s Steak 954 & El Vez. We’re here for our guests 24/7 with our signature Whatever/Whenever service.

    Not Thrilled
    Last minute we decided to change our route from palm beach to Fort Lauderdale. I’m a frequent reviewer on TripAdvisor and I did an error by not checking the reviews before I booked with W Fort Lauderdale. What a disappointment. When we arrived to the hotel the staff member was…

    Inconsistent but overall very good
    We booked at the W for its location and using points. Our long weekend getaway was an early birthday celebration and concierge Giovanie could not have been more helpful with planning, arranging for a nice surprise upon arrival that was very appreciated! We arrived early Friday…

    New Years Even Weekend Celebration / Disappointment
    The W Hotel Lauderdale has always been one my favorites. The Hotel itself is in a great location, very modern, great pool, and outstanding staff. Having said that, my last stay 30 Jan - 1 Jan was an utter disappointment. I made my reservations over two months in advance and…

    How close is the W to the Fort Lauderdale cruise port?
    We actually cruised out of Miami but the Fort Lauderdale port is quite close. It’s only a few miles and depending on traffic maybe 10-15 minutes. You could see the port from our balcony

    Is there any place to self park I rented a car for my stay but im not trying to pay $39 a day for valet or are you stuck paying the $39 because I really wanted to check out miami too.
    Hey James, No place to park on he street or anywhere close by the FL. Miami beach is even worse! Do yourself a favor save the headache and just valet at the hotel. I know it’s expensive but it the easiest way to go. Have fun!

    "Outside" Food/Drink & Coolers @ Pools. I understand that there are two pools (Hotel & Residence). Wondering about the policy for each.
    I brought a small cooler bag everyday. I have also brought it to the West Side Pool (residents pool). I have even ordered lunch from Steak 954 and brought it pool side. I got bored with the pool menu after a couple of days.
