Top Downtown Tampa Hotel Reviews

Hyatt Place Tampa Downtown

10/10 Excellent

"The room was big and clean. And the staffs there"

Residence Inn By Marriott Tampa Downtown

10/10 Excellent

"My stay at Residence Inn was very peaceful and delightful. Everyone who worked there during my stay was very pleasant and very professional. I had no complaints with the room other than after so many years of wear and tear, there should be some remodeling that is considered to keep the maintenance of the hotel in tip top shape. Other than that, it was pleasant. Katrina was the 1st employee that I had an encounter with and she was amazing. I loved her energy, her professionalism and her customer service. She greeted us with a smile and accomodated any issues we had. "
