467 hotel rooms at the Omni Hotel were damaged or destroyed during the tornado.

Only 15 rooms at the Westin suffered broken windows.

170 in the south tower, 8 in the north, its just that they have closed the south tower to minimize disruption while getting everything repaired

Hmm, even the email I got from the Westin (copied from a Vistors Center Guy I think) said that Omni has 400+ rooms with some sort of damage.
