Reviewing Erica Araya, Westin Harbour Castle Hotel


Waterfront venue, The Westin Harbour Castle Hotel, offers elegance & service designed to impress

 

Westin Harbour Castle Hotel is a stunning venue for any wedding day. Here, you could be toasting to a new life with your friends and family while overlooking the beauty of Lake Ontario at dusk... Spending the days leading up to your wedding in a beautiful hotel room with your bridesmaids as you prepare to say 'I do'... Indulging in an afternoon in the luxurious in-house spa...

 

Located between Yonge and Bay, the elegance of this hotel is designed to impress. Even its lobby is gorgeous and spacious, marble shining from the light of floor-to-ceiling windows. The Westin Harbour Castle has thirteen banquet rooms to choose from, a capacity for ten to eight hundred wedding guests, and is a wonderful choice for a wedding.

 

Choosing Westin Harbour Castle Hotel

Erika says that she loves having a part in 'a moment that is very unique and personal' to couples, "I love getting to know the brides." As Erika walks you through your many banquet room options, she will be asking you about your wedding, style, budget and theme including, "What do you envision on your wedding day?"

 

Erika Araya of Westin Harbour Castle admits that most brides love that fact that the location is a waterfront venue. In fact, three of their banquet rooms overlook the water. Nearly each couple she sees, have already been in Westin Harbour Castle Hotel before, either through family or corporate events. What these couples really want to know is how to make the location their own, how to make it perfect for their wedding.

 

Erika says she loves getting to know the couples that come in to see them, "We are known for the genuine interest we show in brides, and we pride ourselves on the relationship we have with them."

 

Top-notch catering

Westin Harbour Castle's experienced catering managers are there to make sure your dinner is everything you want it to be. Extensive menus, bar and hosting options will likely make choosing it difficult to choose your favourite catering package. To help you get a taste for Harbour Castle, you and your fiancé are invited to a trial meal beforehand.

 

Erika says that ethnic traditions are also no problem. The catering team regularly handles East Indian, Middle Eastern, Oriental and Latin weddings. "We address everyone's concerns from the beginning," says Erika. 

 

All the amenities

The Westin Harbour Castle is a CAA/AAA Four Diamond Award hotel with easy highway access and a travel time of less than 30 minutes from Lester B. Pearson International Airport.

 

Your out-of-town guests could easily fall in love with the recently renovated guest rooms (complete with 32 inch wall-mounted plasma TVs), and you should definitely check out the hotel's gorgeous suites. Westin Harbour Castle Hotel also has a heated indoor pool, whirlpool, fitness centre, and outdoor tennis courts to indulge in.

 

"Votre Beaute" is the in-house European day spa for men and women with an incredible menu of treatments, plus a full-service hair salon. Get a hot stone massage in a room overlooking the lake, or pamper yourself with a French seaweed wrap or their signature ginseng facial.

 

The essential details

Erika recommends booking a year in advance, but call to check availability. The initial deposit is $1000, and the balance is due two weeks before your event. Westin Harbour Castle offers inclusive packages from $138 to $178 per person. If you'd like to customize one of them, just talk to Erika.
