Top University of Tampa Hotel Reviews

Embassy Suites by Hilton Tampa Downtown Convention Center

8/10 Good

"I had no complaints. Just wished parking bill was included in hotel bill."

The Barrymore Hotel Tampa Riverwalk

10/10 Excellent

"Great location on the Riverwalk. Go left and walk 20 minutes and you are downtown and Convention Center. Go right on Riverwalk and walk 20 and you are at the Armature (fancy food court and entertainment complex). It is also right across the street from the arts & entertainment district where you can enjoy museums, Broadway shows and much more. Staff is very friendly and helpful. Property is clean, room was clean, and wifi was fast and reliable for both work and for streaming. In the words of Arnold..."I'll be back.""

Courtyard by Marriott Tampa Downtown

10/10 Excellent

"The staff were welcoming, and friendly. We stayed on the 6th floor, in a corner room with a balcony. The room was clean, had plenty of space, and we had a great view of the city. The room itself was quiet, we didn’t hear any of our neighbors, just some loud cars racing down the road late at night. Paid parking was right across the street ($25+tax overnight). Lots of walkable places to eat nearby. Recommend Central Coffee (their breakfast burrito was delicious), and Tampa Burger and Pirates (burger was huge & seasoned fries yummy). Only issues with our room were that the cabinet housing the mini fridge had some water damage on the upper left corner which caused it to have a large bubble on that corner. Cabinet probably needs to be replaced. Also, the sliding glass shower doors wouldn’t stay closed, and the door to the bathroom was hard to open/shut as it was a little too long, and was rubbing on the bathroom floor. Overall we were happy with our hotel selection."

Hyatt House Tampa Downtown

8/10 Good

"Good hotel."
