Was treated very poorly by the front desk and management. I am a long time Marriott rewards member titanium level and never seen anything like this. Would not recommend. Seems to be a nice location and a nice property, so very disappointing.

Nice hotel in a good location with nice views of the water. Brenda and Shasha at the front desk were very helpful. Farren in the concierge lounge is amazing. She was super friendly and keeps the lounge spotless and well stacked. Would be great to have some mini omelettes or cheese on the eggs.

I am a Lifetime Gold Elite member with Marriott, with over 500 nights stayed across your properties. It’s deeply disappointing to have to write this. I was erroneously charged $485 for food and beverages I did not purchase. My folio, the Marriott app, my credit card statement, and even the front desk all show conflicting information. Despite multiple attempts, I’ve received no response from hotel management, and customer service has offered little to no support. This situation has caused significant frustration and wasted time. I expect this to be addressed and resolved promptly. I will update my review once Marriott takes responsibility and corrects the error. Read less

I can't say enough about this hotel! From the moment we checked in until we left, our entire stay was full of excellent customer service, delicious food and drinks and plenty of ways to enjoy the Tampa area. The hotel is right along the Riverwalk with easy access in any direction to entertainment districts, restaurants, bars and recreation. There's also a street car station right outside the front door and water taxis out the back. During our stay we sampled some drinks at Lona Restaurant and had breakfast at the restaurant on site. It was a little cold and windy during our stay so we weren't able to enjoy the outdoor seating or pool area, but both areas looked inviting and we'll definitely give them both a try if we return. There is a $30/night resort fee added to your stay. This is explained upon checking and it is easy to recoup that fee by dining onsite, enjoying the wine/beer tastings and using the water taxi service (Just be sure to get your free pass at the front desk). I highly recommend this property to those looking for a convenient place if you are in town for a hockey game, departing on a cruise or just looking for a weekend away. Read less
