"The hotel is in a good location. The room was updated and clean. Unfortunately the doors and walls are razor thin and you hear every conversation and every person walking through the gallery. Also, they had a DJ playing electric music after 11 that pulsated the room."

10/10 Excellent
"We loved everything about this place and hope to go back again. Even though we only live an hour away in Georgia we went to Hilton Head for a getaway. The hotel is very clean and the staff was very friendly. Our room was clean and comfortable. The breakfast offered had everything we needed to start our day. I am in the Top 10% of Google hotel reviewers and this place is one of my favorite. The only negative is that the hallways are FREEZING and that the bathtub is VERY slippery. Please ask for a bath mat for your tub. Matthew Brown the Housekeeping Manager was most excellent in making sure the guests had a bath mat for the bathtub/shower. Even though I was not welcomed as a Hilton Honors customer we really enjoyed the hotel and our stay!"

The Westin Hilton Head Island Resort & Spa

8/10 Good
"Nice resort on a beautiful island. Great location for golfers. Unfortunately the weather didn't cooperate and most of our late-September visit was too cold to swim in the ocean. The heated pool may have been heated technically, but was still pretty cool to swim in. That left everyone trying to fit in the hot tub, which became a bit crowded. The property is in very good condition generally, although the elevator closest to the pool didn't work for us a couple of times and we had to take the stairs. As with most resorts, you are nickel and dimed for a lot... valet parking, self parking, daily resort fees, charges for chairs near the pool and cabanas. It seems like when you are paying these per-night fees that some of that would be included, especially in the off season. We might come back, but if so it would certainly be in the summer when we could swim in the ocean."
