Top Florida Aquarium Hotel Reviews

Hampton Inn Tampa Downtown Channel District

10/10 Excellent

"Great place to stay"

Mint House Tampa Downtown by Kasa

10/10 Excellent

"This is a Must stay hotel for anyone coming in for business or even a little vacation! Has everything you need AND wonderful amenities that are CLEAN & WELL MAINTAINED"

The Tampa EDITION

10/10 Excellent

"I highly value amenities like the gym and pool, since when I book hotels like this I expect to make the most of the experience and my time at the hotel, and the amenities at The Edition are great. I didn't have time to visit the spa itself, but the pool and gym were great spaces. Regarding the staff, what I liked most was the room service. The room service team is really amazing and visited my room like 3 times a day, organized my things, and was always super attentive. I really enjoyed the room service. The breakfast restaurant is also great. Really good hotel. I definitely want to return."

Home2 Suites by Hilton Tampa Downtown Channel District

8/10 Good

"They key me check in early which was really good I appreciate that and I didn't get charged"

Westin Tampa Downtown Waterside

10/10 Excellent

"Despite a few renovations the experience was excellent. Newly renovated room. Excellent view and great location."

Hyatt House Tampa Downtown

10/10 Excellent

"."

Aloft by Marriott Tampa Downtown

10/10 Excellent

"Great experience. Will continue to stay here."

Hotel Flor Tampa Downtown, Tapestry Collection by Hilton

10/10 Excellent

"The parking is expensive but I appreciate the in-out privileges and the speed with which they bring the cars around. One suggestion is to have umbrellas available for guests to use during the summer rainy season."

Residence Inn By Marriott Tampa Downtown

10/10 Excellent

"This is my second time staying at this location. I like the convenience of being close to everything downtown. There was construction this time around so a little more hectic and loud. I do not love the parking situation and that I have to go across the street, use a parking garage and if it is a busy time you may not find a spot since you can only park in designated areas. Would like to see the breakfast be a little more upgraded. Overall I give it a good rating because it is a good hotel choice."
