Quick Verdict: The Westin Tempe vs TownePlace Suites

When The Westin Tempe wins: choose The Westin Tempe if you want an upscale downtown stay, rooftop pool and bar (Skysill), full-service restaurants, and large flexible event spaces.

When TownePlace Suites wins: pick TownePlace Suites if you need an extended-stay layout (kitchens, studio/one-bedroom suites), a lower-star pragmatic option near Westgate Entertainment District, and complimentary weekday grab-and-go breakfast.

Bottom line: both are practical Arizona choices but serve different needs — The Westin Tempe is a downtown, lifestyle hotel with rooftop amenities and event facilities; TownePlace Suites is a no-frills extended-stay property geared to longer visits and event-goers near Glendale’s entertainment district.
