We wish we could have stayed another night!

Our only regret was we didn't have time to stay another night! The hotel was beautiful, our room was lovely, and the location was great. The only disappointment was no hair dryer in the room and I had not packed mine because I've never stayed in a hotel that did not have one. Other than that, everything was perfect!

Business overnighter

Really nice, clean hotel. My priority when travelling is a hotel with a good restaurant on-site and a good workout facility. I really like the Renaissance's gym. Lots of machines in passable working order. Free weights and a nice view of the pool while working out. Front desk staff was nice, too. Also, the free boarding pass computer/printer was great.

Great Hotel

Stayed at the this hotel after a cruise in Tampa. We arrived at the hotel early thinking our room was not ready. We arrived at 11:00 a.m. To my surpries, the room was ready. Check in was done quick. The room was beautiful. Nice size beds and very clean. The hotel was near Bay Street. Many places to eat and drink.

Comparing with my previous stays

It was clean and comfortable. The only issue i had was wifi is not available even after paying 12.95$ per day. I had to use the wired one.

One of the best hotels we have lodged in

Very good room and very comfortable bed. Reception was discrete and helpful. Restaurant Pelagia is one of the best we have visited. And all this for a reasonable summer price.
