Super hotel in all areas. Boutique style modern hotel that’s just a few years old. Has a food and beverage theme throughout. Rooms are very very nice, clean, fresh and enjoyable to experience. There’s a safe in the room, fridge, drinks and snacks. We had a junior suite and it had a large sofa bed, microwave, and delightful bathroom. I’d stay here…

If you’re headed for dinner to Berns, it’s literally across the street. Hotels parking is valet only at $25 night.

First off I wanted to say we have stayed her a few times, and the place is lovely, staff has always been wonderful, but we traveled to the hotel Saturday June7th for a one night stay and checked out Sunday around noon time. I always place my jewelry in one of the water glasses and (necklace & earrings) and for the first time ever left the room without putting them on. We had a lovely breakfast and off to our 3pm flight back to Boston. The flight ended up being delayed for a few hours, and we arrived home late Sunday night. I was getting dressed to go to work and when I went to put on my earrings and necklace I felt a wave of panic that oh my gosh I left them in the water glass at the hotel. I called and spoke to a young women who told me she would check back with me shortly. I waited a bit and then placed another call, and this time spoke to a women named Maya. She was so understanding of my worry and sick feeling, and said she would speak to the women that cleaned my room. Not ten minutes later and I get a call back from a women saying this is Maya and we did not find your jewelry. I thought it funny as it was minutes between the calls and her voice was not the same as the women I just spoke to, I did not say anything about just speaking to Maya, but asked for sure they checked the water glasses. She told me the cleaning staff clean the glasses and they did not see the Van Cleff necklace or the diamond earrings. I can't tell you how sick I still am over this. Within the hour I get a call back from Maya, Mrs C. I checked with the cleaning staff no one found anything. I proceeded to state again they were in the water glass. She said let me check as the glasses are cleaned in the kitchen, and I will check with them. So I'm not sure if they have two Maya's working for them. I was given a call back and once again nothing was found. She told me she would have her Supervisor Darren call me, which he did and said we have a periodical and I will let you know the outcome. The outcome was not good. I'm sick over this, and yes my fault for not putting them on, and devastated to the core of the loss of my pieces that had wonderful memories. I stated again, maybe they stacked the glasses on top of each other and not noticing. I keep praying to Saint Anthony. Also I'm 10000% I left them in that glass. My husband and I went to have breakfast, and said I was about to say something to you when they walked over with our amazing breakfast and was distracted. He said I was just about to say where is your necklace. We had at this point checked out of our room.

I flew over from the UK for a wedding and the Epicurean was a lovely surprise from the moment I stepped inside. My room was beautifully styled—especially that marble bathroom—and wonderfully comfortable after a long flight. Breakfast in the Lobby Bar set us up nicely for the day, and evening drinks on the EDGE rooftop with the Tampa skyline were thoroughly enjoyable. Between the attentive team, calming spa treatments and the inviting pool, it made for a perfectly relaxing wedding weekend.

We stayed at the Epicurean Hotel in Tampa last week and had a truly fantastic experience—wish we could have stayed longer! The location is absolutely perfect, with lots of great local restaurants and shops within easy walking distance. There's even an incredible homemade ice cream shop just across the carpark that was a hit with the whole family!
From the moment we arrived, the staff were all incredibly friendly and helpful—nothing was too much trouble. Our room was spacious, bright, modern, and spotless. With two large queen beds, it was perfect for our family of four and gave us plenty of room to relax together.
The food at the hotel was delicious—we enjoyed both breakfast and dinner, and the coffee was spot-on too. The pool area is a peaceful little oasis with fancy, comfy sunbeds that made it feel extra luxurious.
Parking was easy with the valet service, and everything about our stay just felt seamless and relaxing. We would highly recommend the Epicurean Hotel and will definitely be back next time we're in the Tampa area!
