A very nice hotel, with their employees as their biggest asset. The room is very clean, with comfortable beds. The pool was great and enjoyable to spend time at. But, it is crazy to charge for wi fi in the rooms. Hotel parking is 14.00. Great location. more

the vinoy is such a beautiful hotel & the staff is fantastic.....the rooms are very spacious, we stayed in the main building so i cant speak for the tower rooms, but everything was great....they had a nice pool with many activities and things going on the kids, we had brunch in the restaurant near the pool and the food was... more

Yes, the property has a lot of history, but the smell (musty) from the lobby to the rooms was a bit much. I would not say this is a 4 star property, low 3 at the best. Service was average at best. Best service was the valet attendants and one bartender/waitress on the promenade July 4th was excellent (wish I... more

Booked the Vinoy through Marriott as I have status with them. Was a little concerned that the hotel was one of those "historic" properties that relied on the history to bring guests in... with little in the way of modern ammenities. Boy was I wrong! The hotel has an old world charm, however, they have augmented the building with some... more

The hotel is gorgeous, very "old" Florida. Shower and sink drains in the rooms need work. Food was good; service slow and most staff are Eastern European with not- great English so miscommunication was common. My daughter had made the reservations a couple months in advance for my birthday celebration; she arranged for a crib for her year old baby... more

We just spent two days at the Renaissance Vinoy and experienced, to use a tired adjective, a perfect time there. Marriot has preserved the grandeur, charm, spaciousness and luxury of this grand old hotel steeped with historic character. And they’ve added genuine friendliness. The staff—from housekeeping to dining to the fitness center and pool—shows a genuine desire to please and... more

I stayed with my teenagers and one of their friends for a night. The room I was in was in the historic section (don't let that scare you, the room was Marriott high quality). The room had everything I asked for and was clean and quiet. Beds were very comfortable. The front porch has wicker chairs you do not want... more

I stay in a lot of hotels but this one really surprised me. I went with the expectation to huddle in my room and work, but the easy elegance of this place just drives you out of your room to mingle. This place is classy, without being stuffy. The staff are helpful, funny and attentive - but never snobbish. Since... more

My husband and I stayed here for his birthday weekend last year while in St.Pete. I thought the location would be perfect for walking around the area and exploring. The hotel is old world glam on the exterior. It has such a great story about it, the lobby feels as though you stepped back in time..in a good way. We... more
