Top Sarasota Fairgrounds Hotel Reviews

Regency Inn & Suites

6/10 Okay

"Expedia requested handicap room. There was no closet. There was a refrigerator, coffee machine, blow dryer and iron. Room was set at 74 temp and couldn’t be changed. Old motel but kept nice. Solid walls."

Golden Host Resort - Sarasota

2/10 Terrible

"The staff was nice and it wasn’t their fault I had a bad experience, but I wish they would’ve offered me a discount on my stay given the circumstances. When I arrived, the room smelled like bug spray. I went to the beach hoping it would be better when I came back but it wasn’t. It finally became too unbearable so just before midnight I packed my stuff and went to the front desk. The lady was nice and offered to show me a few rooms. I chose the second one because it was less smelly, but I barely slept because I was sketched out and because it was so incredibly cold. AC said 73 and even 75 at one point but it was much colder. Better than being hot I guess but not great. The second woman I met when I left told me she’d mark my account for the best rate possible for my next stay but I don’t think I’ll be back. One and done for me… it’s sad because it could be a cute place if it had a top to bottom remodel."

Lido Beach Resort

8/10 Good

"Overall it was a good option and would go back. A few things to note. If you’re in a low floor in the Palm Tower you can use the stairs. Elevator services rooms, restaurant and car park and takes forever to arrive. No recycling whatsoever. And no concern of staff “just throw the plastic bottles in the garbage”. They leave 6 new bottles in your room every day and despite the efforts to protect the waterways, mangroves, sea life all around. The hotel is not on board with sustainability practices, One girl at front desk quite rude. Everyone else lovely. Music too loud at tiki bar!"

Embassy Suites by Hilton Sarasota, FL

10/10 Excellent

"Embassy Suites Sarasota exceeded all expectations. Housekeeping was exceptional, keeping the room immaculate throughout my stay. The team at the 8th‑floor restaurant and bar deserves special praise — great service, great energy, and genuinely welcoming people. I’d gladly stay here again."

Carlisle Inn

10/10 Excellent

"This is one of the cleanest hotels I’ve EVER stayed in. So nice. The staff when I checked in was so kind and friendly. My only thing is that there was not a microwave in the room. I had to eat leftover Yoder’s shepherds pie all cold from the fridge. Just a little thing. Everything else was lovely about this hotel. Also, donuts for breakfast… why doesn’t everyone do this?? Excellent touch!"
