We stayed here for $110 the night before our cruise. Nice room , free cocktail hour and hot breakfast with an omelet station. Take the $3 pp shuttle to the cruise port. I thought it unusual to have to pay extra for a second person in the room but the free drinks and breakfast made up for it . The... more

My mom and I were in downtown Tampa a few times over the summer, and kept changing hotels because we didn't necessarily like the one we had previously stayed at. I finally decided on this one on the last trip we made.. the deal breaker over other hotels that we had not tried was the free full breakfast. You do... more

Nice hotel!

This hotel was simply a one night stay on the way to our real vacation-a cruise. I made the reservation on hotels.com and got a really nice price. The rooms were spacious and the suite setup was a bonus. The staff was nice and very helpful. The rooms were clean and comfortable including the bed. We also had a nice... more

Stayed at this hotel last night while in Tampa for a concert. This is the perfect location if you are seeing a show at the St. Pete Times Forum. The hotel is about a 2 minute walk from the forum. The staff here was very friendly and helpful. The room was large , not your typical tiny hotel room. The... more

We stayed at the Embassy Suites Tampa – Downtown Convention Center in July for a conference. The hotel is a nice facility with excellent rooms, unusual design, an excellent “free” breakfast and a couple odd quirks. The hotel is in a good location, adjacent (and connected) to the convention center. The building is a unique design, with all rooms accessed... more

Thank you for your feedback! It really is great to hear about the positive impression our team members made. I'm glad you enjoyed our complimentary cooked-to-order breakfast in the morning, we really do pride ourselves in serving a great meal. Please accept my apology if the parking rate was communicated incorrectly. Our rates are competitive with the other hotels in...

I stay here every summer for a long weekend to attend the Metrocon Anime convention that's held next door at the Tampa Convention Center. The front desk service is excellent, the rooms are so comfy. This has to be the only hotel I've stayed in that I can count on it being just perfectly comfortable for a home away from... more

Thank you for the comments about the staff at our hotel it is always great to hear positive feedback. As you known we are the closest hotel to the convention center. There may be rare occasions during very large conventions where hundreds of people use the elevators at the exact same time. Due to the unusual volume I can understand...

I attended the Metrocon anime convention at the Tampa Convention Center and this was the hotel that was recommended to participants of the event since it was connected to the convention center. This was no small event so the place was packed and people were running around like crazy, but for the event it was expected. I went with my... more

We were quite amazed by this hotel. My wife and two friends stayed here during the Gasparilla Pirate Fest so that we did not have to drive home after a night of debauchery. We were on the ... who know (it was high up) floor in a really nice suite. The suite had everything that we would need to spread... more

Stayed here in Tampa for business, overall the Hotel was very impressive! Great lobby, great ambiance, and a nice feel to the lobby and common areas. I checked in and the clerk did not realize that I checked-in ahead of time via the Hilton Hhonors site and was not sure how I was able to check into an executive suite... more

I was staying here during the end of April. There was a high school Thespian convention going on. The hotel made no attempt to keep these kids from running the halls, filling the elevators full (and pushing all the buttons). It would have been nice to have some security. Granted these kids needed better chaperones, but the hotel has somewhat... more
