Westbury Manor Hotels

I know this topic has been done to death, but for some reason the liweddings search keeps coming up with no matches.

Anyways, Does anybody know any good hotels near Westbury Manor, and would you happen to know prices, and amenities? Thanks in advance.

I booked with the Hyatt Place in Garden City, it's about 10 to 15 minutes away from WM. This is also the comp hotel room that they give when you book with WM. For October I paid 425 for two rooms (Thurs- Saturday) I didn't do the hotel block because I really don't need it but I know they give discounts if you do. Hope this helps!

I plan to do so as well & reserve a block for guests.. My BM told us that they have free shuttle service to WM ... is that true?

Re: Westbury Manor Hotels

Yes they do if you end up booking 10 rooms! That's what the hyatt told me

The Hyatt was at the showcase - you need ten rooms and your room counts as one of the ten! YAY!

UUGGHH I missed them!?!? Were you there tonight????

Re: Westbury Manor Hotels

Yes, We got there around 635. I just wanted to see what a showcase was like! Won't be going to another one! Did you speak with Bravura? Nobody really wanted to give pricing! Kind of annoying if you ask me! We made an appointment with Royalty Limos because they were offering 20 or 25% off. Did you find it worth while?

Re: Westbury Manor Hotels

Yes we met with Bravura and set up an appointment for next week, but missed the limo part. Only one place gave us prices .. after hours DJ. It was ok ... probably wont be going to another one unless we are still missing one thing to book and we get a deal there, but as of now ... no lol

WM bride here. We booked a block at Viana. www.vianahotelandspa.com/
Maybe 10 min from WM on Brushhollow Rd. We have the lounge reserved for an after party until 2am and we are also doing a breakfast the next morning. MOG is paying for breakfast so vouchers will be given to guests wishing to attend. If I remember correctly the rooms are $169 for the night. The bridal suites are amazing. There are 2 to choose from (maybe 3?) We blocked 15 rooms. They also offer a shuttle from the hotel to WM and from WM back to the hotel. Even guests not staying at the hotel can use the shuttle if they want to enjoy the after party. Across from the bar is also an adult game room with video games, a pool table etc. for the men!!

Re: Westbury Manor Hotels (UPDATES)

Thanks everyone for all the input!!!

FH and I rented a zipcar and saw at least 8 places today. Exhausting but great day :)

We are winding down to 3-4 places.
Our reception ends at 6pm on a Saturday. So one of our must for a hotel is a lounge area with bar. Also shuttle service would be great.

Hyatt
-loved the bright modern decor. Loved the rooms
-has shuttle bus
-quoted us around 149 per night
-CON: really the only con is there lounge area is more like a cafe area. No bar. So we are still uncertain. But gosh I LOOOOVE the rooms
-Also no complimentary breakfast

La Quinta
They seem to have the whole package, but have read such bad reviews on them
-they quoted us 149 per night as well
-free complimentary breakfast
-their bridal suite is huge and pretty, like it's own apartment. enough for 6 people (AKA my whole wedding party for a sleepover. Quoted #249 for bridal suite.
-They have a lounge/bar area open late.
-CON: the place has some charm but really lacks in that modern 'decor kick'. Lounge area is really breakfast area..bunch of small little tables


Hilton Garden City
-Very pretty decor
-Loved their lounge/bar area. It's set aside so it has more intimate feel.
-Rooms are gorgeous (Hyatt still my favorite). Quoted $139 per night for our guest. BEST DEAL SO FAR
-Quoted $209 for bridal suite, good price.
-They also have free shuttle. But I've heard people having trouble with their shuttle. It's possible I might have more than 2 people per room. Does that mean they would have to pay extra to use the shuttle? That would be a major downside
-CON: no complimentary breakfast. Have to pay 11.95, but I could live with that


Garden City Hotel
What a nightmare. We arrived 15mn late and the lady wanted to bite our heads, despite our multiple apologies. She gave us a reallly quick run through of everything.
The rooms were $189!! By far the most pricey place we saw today. And frankly I don't see where they can charge all that. The carpet looks run down. The decor is soooo 80s. It must be maintenance fees
-Other CONs: No breakfast. No shuttle
We were so happy to leave. Haha!

Viana Hotel & Spa
Goooorgeous!!!!!! Like a real vacation hotel
-They quoted us $159 for blocked rooms. Not bad for a swanky hotel
-They have an awesome lounge/bar placed..open til 2am
-Spa services. With our busy grad school schedules, FH and I might not go on a honeymoon until we graduate in May . So it would be cool to just hang the rest of the weekend here and leave Monday.


So here is our adventures in a nutshell.
**Felt really drawn to the Hyatt and their rooms, but unsure about their lounge area. (We don't expect a lot of people to hang out post wedding but it feels too 'hotel loungy/starbucks cafe-ish )
**La Quinta. I just really liked the vasteness of their bridal suite. But it feels too boring, too everyday hotel
**Hilton had a great price. Super organized. Out of all the vendors we saw today, the sales manager was the only one who emailed me tonight with all the plans we discussed about.
**Viana...still not sure if we want to charge our guest that much. And on top no shuttle, nothing complimentary. But I do see it as a hotel (just for us)


Hopefully this helps other brides figuring out hotels in the area.

Super undecided. So, any input is appreciated :)

I could have sworn hyatt offered free breakfast. Im gonna call today and check im getting married the day before you.

Just called and hyatt said no shuttle! I even sent her a pic of the flyer jericho terr gave us. I decided to do hilton. $139 is cheaper, they give the shuttle and have the hot breakfast for $12.
