Top Picnic Island Beach Hotel Reviews

Holiday Inn Tampa Westshore - Airport Area by IHG

10/10 Excellent

"Excelente ubicación y muy limpio"

Marriott Tampa Westshore

8/10 Good

"We arrived at the hotel very early due to an early flight. The front desk called housekeeping to get our room ready a little earlier and that was great. They asked if we had a car and I confirmed. What I didn't know was that the parking pass was $20 PER DAY. The room was lovely. The beds were so comfy and felt as if they had a pillow top. I haven't slept this well at a hotel in some time. On another day I wanted to download my pictures from my camera. I clicked connect to wifi for the guest room and was greeted by a notice that I would be charged $12.95 per day which seemed very steep, I opted out. I truly loved the cleaner than clean restrooms in the lobby. That kind of sparkle makes your stay even more pleasant. The concierge breakfast on the 14th floor was fresh and delightful. Be forewarned that it is only open Monday-Friday 6.30am-9.30am (no weekends) with Evening Bites & Desserts Sunday-Thursday 5.30pm-10.00pm. The Blue Bistro in the lobby offers basic food that I didn't try. Our family did walk next door to First Watch for an amazing breakfast. They are only open until lunch (they all are) which ruled out dinner there. Rooted Grounds for coffee in the lobby in the mornings is to die for, the expresso shots are premium with premium service to boot. A very freindly lady greeted us every morning. Overall we had a lovely stay at the Marriot. Be mindful of those charges that can make your stay very expensive."

The Westshore Grand, Tampa, A Tribute Portfolio Hotel

"Staff was friendly. Rooms were clean. Beds were comfortable."

"It was great"

Landing Tampa Westshore

8/10 Good

"The property was very nice and the 2-bedroom unit was perfect. Nice furnishings but I would’ve loved firmer pillows on the beds. Only the TV in the living room had live local channels; those in the bedrooms were streaming only but we lived with it. There isn’t an assigned parking spot so I thought it would be harder to find a parking spot than it was. The pool was a salt water pool and the temperature was very relaxing! I wish we were able to have a 2nd pool day but we were pretty busy. The shower door was a bit hard to slide and I loved the 2 sinks but I wish that bedroom had the larger bed. The ceiling fan in the bedroom with the bathtub was a bit loud and sounds like it needs tightening."

Sleep Inn & Suites Tampa South

8/10 Good

"Here's a convenient hotel quite close to MacDill AFB and the rest of south Tampa; they readily accommodated my request to have a unit on a higher floor. Pricing is certainly reasonable."

TownePlace Suites by Marriott Tampa South

8/10 Good

"Room was not properly cleaned daily, towels were not changed and dishes not cleaned."
