I specifically chose this hotel because it has a bridge that connects to the Tampa Convention Center. The location was perfect for venturing to Amalie Arena, and the suite was so comfortable. We loved having a living room separate from the bedroom.

Breakfast was great. The complimentary breakfast exceeded all expectations, and the suites were spacious and clean. The pool is beautiful, and the location made getting around the area a breeze via the streetcars almost right outside the front doors.

Great place to stay in downtown Tampa. Next to the Riverwalk and the Sail Plaza. Trolley stop in front of the hotel and close to Sparkman Wharf. Included breakfast includes made-to-order omelets and a happy hour in the evening.
