Company
Across colorful cities and stunning resort destinations, Westin Hotels & Resorts® redefine efficient service with an effortless style and gracious attitude that ensures a truly unforgettable experience for our guests and our team members. Every Westin--and there are more than 160, including 30 of the world's finest resorts--is a haven of serenity and a distinctive alternative for those who appreciate a higher standard. Each Westin is an architectural inspiration, designed to engage all the senses and surround guests and team members in a soothing atmosphere. The response is immediate. Yet the restorative effects are lasting. As a Westin associate, in any position, you would have the opportunity to create incredible memories for our guests. Beyond the standard hotel visit, a stay at a Westin is an uncommon retreat from the everyday. Thoughtful details, considerate services and signature amenities restore the mind and body while revitalizing the spirit. Guests leave feeling rested, with a renewed sense of energy, balance and awareness. It's a subtle catharsis that elevates an average stay into a transforming experience. This keeps our guests coming back for more and keeps our associates proud of what they do. Any hotel can offer you a job. But Westin proposes a gratifying career as distinct as our reputation. Through experience, training and strategic career development, our associates are inspired to achieve their goals while positively impacting the lives of our guests and workers. Their roles are as important as they are rewarding. At Westin you can learn, grow and succeed. Exceptional benefits, training and perks provide the basis for a renewing work experience. Be inspired to be your best. Be Westin. Joining Westin also means you would join the Starwood Hotels & Resorts family. Bringing together the world's best names in hotels and resorts, Starwood brands include Le Meridien®, Four Points® by Sheraton® Hotels, Westin Hotels & Resorts®, The Luxury Collection®, aloftsm hotels, Sheraton® Hotels & Resorts, elementsm hotels, St. Regis® Hotels & Resorts and W Hotels®.
