Holiday Inn Tampa North by IHG

10/10 Excellent

"It was all I needed: a clean room and bathroom, small fridge and microwave, and the small couch was nice to have as well. I did not use the pool or other amenities, but they looked clean."

Home2 Suites by Hilton Tampa USF Near Busch Gardens

10/10 Excellent

"Best hotel by far, everything was perfect. Close to everything we were visiting! Clean and up to date. Beds were so comfortable with small little kitchen sink and fridge was a plus. Definitely be back!! Visiting from Massachusetts"

Hampton Inn & Suites Tampa Busch Gardens Area

10/10 Excellent

"The front desk woman (Pam, I believe) was absolutely outstanding. She was friendly and helpful. I came in on a Sunday when they happened to have quite a few openings. We chatted a bit and I told her I came here specifically to ride Iron Gwazi at Busch Gardens (yeah, I know). She said she saw I was put into a parking lot view room, and asked if I’d prefer the park view. Absolutely! The coaster was centered in my window. Later in the week I decided to extend my stay for a night. She helped me join Hilton Rewards and I booked a room for $30 off. She was such a delight. Breakfast was good every morning (the waffles were better than most at hotels), and the coffee was decent - which often isn’t the case at hotels. Housekeeping was on point and provided fresh towels daily, and gave the room service after my second night. They absolutely earned the tip I left them at the end of my stay. The shuttle running to the park was very convenient, and the driver (Miguel) was friendly, and had insights and advice when I asked questions. The only downside has nothing to do with the hotel itself, but its location. If you’re staying on the “park side” of the hotel, traffic can get a bit loud and disruptive at times. All in all, an absolute STEAL for the price. I would 100% stay here again and recommend this place to anyone."
