My spouse and I married in NYC in August 2025 and booked a large room block at The Westin Grande Central. With nearly 100 guests staying at the hotel, it was crucial for us to find a venue that not only met our high expectations but also pleased our family and friends. We’re delighted to say that both our hopes and expectations were more than fulfilled.
First, working with the Westin's management team to coordinate the room block was a smooth and professional experience. From the planning stages through the wedding weekend, Jerron Garret was exceptionally attentive, responsive, and accommodating. He managed various special requests from ourselves and our guests, including last-minute room changes, dining requests, and welcome weekend amenities. Jerron’s quick responses and collaborative approach made the process seamless and stress-free.
Second, regarding the hotel itself, our guests were highly satisfied with the location. Situated in Midtown East, the hotel is within walking distance of many landmarks such as Grand Central, the UN, the Chrysler Building, and Times Square. With convenient access to multiple subway lines, guests could easily explore other neighborhoods around the city. In terms of accommodations, guests appreciated that the rooms were larger than typical NYC hotel rooms, and also enjoyed the hotel’s gym and bar.
Overall, my spouse and I were truly relieved and delighted to have chosen The Westin GC. We are grateful to the entire staff for making our wedding weekend unforgettable.
