“My New Favorite Hotel Chain!”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed October 8, 2012

Prior to this weekend I had never heard of the ALoft brand by Sheraton / W. We only stumbled on it because we needed a hotel in Winchester VA that took pets. Normally I avoid hotels that take pets because they tend to be hotels that are past their prime. We were in a pinch though for dog care so we took a chance and I'm very, very glad we did.

This is an extraordinary hotel. Exceedingly well designed with European style lines and new approaches at every turn for taking care of guests. The room had a wonderfully modern bathroom with a gargantuan slider door that separates the shower and toilet from the sink area. Looking for the closet? The closet has been reinvented...words are hard to explain but the approach is brilliant for hotel use. Beds...great. Exercise room and pool looked fantastic. Mr. Clean would be proud. Exceedingly friendly staff that put up with way too much noise from dog...kids...etc.

A review though must be balanced. The couple we stayed with heard elevator music throughout the night. Also, the water pressure was a bit low (I expect this is out of environmental concerns). I should be okay with a green shower but I'd rather indulge on vacation.

All in all, a splendid experience.

Well done Starwood!

“Great place great price”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed October 4, 2012

Stayed here a few times. Not only are they pet freindly, but the place is neat and clean. The front desk is very accomodating too. I'd stay here any time I'm in the area. I've stayed in Aloft hotels in other places and I really like the modern sleek style of the room.

“Modern, trendy & new hotel. Noisy on Friday nights”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed October 1, 2012

A first time stay at an Aloft. The initial experience was positive. Clean, firm, new beds, excellent storage space for luggage. Excellent lighting over vanity area and it is separate from shower area which made 2 people getting ready in AM easy. Negatives - Only one chair in room that sleeps 4, only 1 pouch of coffee ( single cup maker), printer attached to computer had no ink for 36 hours despite requests for refill. Continental Breakfast was not free and despite the fact we paid for a "rate including breakfast" nothing was available before 6.30 on week days and 7 on weekends. On Saturday by 7.15 still nothing available - not even cereal.
On Friday night extreemly loud music until well after midnight - thank goodness we were on 6th floor. Safe not working and never repaired during 4 night stay. A request for tissues could not be fulfilled at 5pm on Saturday as room attendants had gone home and sole front desk person could leave desk for over an hour

“Not meant for families”
3 of 5 stars Reviewed September 24, 2012

The hotel was really nice. The rooms were very contemporary. The beds were however like sleeping on a futon and not very comfortable. I stayed here two night with my husband and 3 children, and I must say the window in the shower that can be seen in the bedroom is not ideal with children. If I was just traveling with my husband I would have given a higher rating.

“Comfortable, Quiet and Friendly”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed September 4, 2012

I've always liked aloft hotels, and this was was no exception. It was fairly new, and it was absolutely spotless inside. We only stayed for a single night as part of a drive through Virginia, but would definitely stay again if I was back in that area. The staff was friendly and attentive, rooms were clean, comfortable, price was fair. Just a pleasant experience on par with what I've grown to expect from aloft. We were also given a 20% off coupon at checkout for a future stay.

Room Tip: Our room overlooked the front of the hotel/main road. There was some road noise. Not enough to warra...
