Top Tampa Bay Hotel Reviews

Mint House St. Petersburg Downtown by Kasa

10/10 Excellent

"Great location! Rooms are clean and have everything you need!"

Hollander Boutique Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"Excellent location. We enjoyed the pool, coffee shop and restaurant. The staff wer top notch as well."

Ponce De Leon Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"It's not fancy but you can't beat the location or the price."

Moxy St. Petersburg Downtown

10/10 Excellent

"Phenomenal stay, room was clean, just wish the fridge was bigger"

Avalon Hotel Downtown St. Petersburg

8/10 Good

"Very nice quiet room, great shower, amazing king bed. I usually have a hard time sleeping in a hotel, here I slept like a rock. The room was just the right temperature for a restful sleep. **The one glitch was the unmarked slight ramp under the carpet in the hallway on the third floor right near the elevator. I didn't know it was there and almost took a header."

Hyatt Place St. Petersburg / Downtown

10/10 Excellent

"This a great spot for vacationing. A car is not needed for dining and shopping. Staff is friendly and hotel was clean. Definitely returning"

GALAXY HOTEL

10/10 Excellent

"I LOVED this hotel! Such a great location - steps from everything! And the general manager was really kind and helped me when my stay was cut short for work. Totally recommend them!"

The Inn on Third

10/10 Excellent

"Best place close to downtown to stay. Can’t beat the price"

Courtyard by Marriott St. Petersburg Downtown

10/10 Excellent

"Only problem was big. We flew down super excited to attend the Bruno mars concert. I didn’t realize it was outdoors & that’s okay. The problem is without prior warning not being able allowed to be dropped off closer to the venue. Waking in the heat to get to the many ramps and bridge over the street was just the beginning. By the time we got there, through the stadium to our seats my husband was so sick with heat exhaustion. We needed medical. Thankfully, as he was telling me he was going down we had found a wheelchair. Needless to say we missed ever seeing Bruno mars. We spent so much money on tickets, our flight, hotel, having to eat out & getting uber rides. Never got to see the concert. When an event is advertised at a stadium set up like this there should be a disclaimer for older people with health problems. I’ve been wanting to see Bruno mars for 10 yrs. Few thousand dollars wasted for nothing. There should have been a disclaimer Thankfully my husband is resting & will be okay."
