Westin Huntsville Honored Again with AAA Four Diamond Rating

On Tuesday November 24th, 2009, The Westin Huntsville at Bridge Street Town Centre became Huntsville’s first AAA Four Diamond Award hotel.

Once again, Al Gibbs, vice president and general manager of AAA Alabama returned to The Westin Huntsville and presented an extension of the industry prized AAA Four Diamond Award. The Westin Huntsville’s rating of the prestigious Four Diamond Award will be honored through 2012, an award given to only 7 hotels in the state of Alabama and account for less than 3.8 percent of the total 59,000 AAA/CAA Approved and Diamond Rated lodgings.

We are in elite company and I am very proud to be a part of such a tremendous organization.” The Westin Huntsville is consistently rated in the top 10 for outstanding Guest Satisfaction Index scores out of the 116 Westin Hotels in North America.

The Westin Huntsville’s Sage Grille Restaurant won best overall at the 2010 Taste of Huntsville. The restaurant was victorious over a favorite local restaurant that had won for the previous 3 years.

In addition to eight beautifully appointed meeting rooms and over 13,000 square feet of meeting and banquet space, the Westin Huntsville hosts many of the areas brides for their dream weddings in the hotel’s perfectly manicured Bridal Courtyard overlooking Bridge Street’s lake.
