Top Port Tampa Bay Hotel Reviews

Westin Tampa Downtown Waterside

10/10 Excellent

"For our anniversary they gave us upgraded room view with bottle of champagne and treats it was such a surprise and extremely thoughtful"

Hilton Tampa Downtown

8/10 Good

"Only thing that brings the rating down to 4 stars is the 57$ valet. It takes a while for the valet to retrieve your car, I recommend calling down in advance to have them grab it."

Tampa Marriott Water Street

10/10 Excellent

"Beautifully decorated lobby and restaurants Clean spacious room Great amenities Beautiful pool w services Gym Multiple bars Live entertainment daily and nightly Phenomenal location"

The Barrymore Hotel Tampa Riverwalk

8/10 Good

"The hotel was clean. We had an issue with the shower and they immediately sent maintenance to fix it."

Hampton Inn Tampa Downtown Channel District

8/10 Good

"We stayed here for two nights while visiting our daughter for Family Weekend at her college. We really appreciated the convenient location near downtown, with restaurants and other attractions within walking distance. The hotel itself was okay, although it felt a little outdated and could use some updates. The bedsheets were also very thin, which made the accommodations feel less comfortable than expected. Our biggest disappointment was the noise at night. The traffic outside our window was incredibly loud, to the point that it sounded like construction was happening right outside our room. We definitely weren’t expecting that, and it made it difficult to get a peaceful night’s sleep. Overall, the location was a plus, but the hotel could benefit from some improvements, particularly in comfort and soundproofing."

"Great place to stay! Close to everything!!"

10/10 Excellent
