Our stay for the Andrea Bocelli was not the best. The handles on the sliding glass doors were so loose I had to hand tighten them so they didn't fall off. There was no place to put soap in the shower. The hot and cold water turn ons for the bathroom sink need service they were so hard to turn. The day we were to leave, the Hotel had someone knock on our door wanting to know what time we would be out. That was at 9 am...We thought that was so rude. We will never stay at this Hotel again. We didn't want to forget...after the concert we went to the lounge and waited for 30 minutes and still could not get service.. There was only one bartender. You would think after a concert that the lounge would be busy.

Very disappointed with my last experience. I have stated this hotel 10 out of the last 12 times that I’ve been in Tampa for a work convention. Upon checkout this week I requested a print-out of the bill for tax purposes and found out that they charged us a $300 smoking fee without notifying us. I promptly called and requested it to be removed but my phone call for the manager was not returned. Obviously, I will be disputing the charge, but I wanted to give them the opportunity to remove it first. Neither myself nor my business partner smoke.

I recently stayed at the Embassy Suites in downtown Tampa and wanted to specifically recognize one of the valet attendants who truly elevated my experience.
From the moment I arrived, she was welcoming, professional, and incredibly efficient. After a long day of travel, it was refreshing to be greeted with such a positive attitude and genuine hospitality. She handled my vehicle with care, explained the valet process clearly, and made check-in feel seamless.
What impressed me even more was her consistency. When I requested my car during checkout, she was just as attentive and organized as she had been upon arrival. My vehicle was ready promptly, and she made sure everything was in order before sending me off with a warm smile and well wishes for safe travels.
It’s rare to encounter someone who takes such pride in their work and treats every guest with respect and professionalism. She is a fantastic first and last impression for the hotel. Embassy Suites is lucky to have her on their team!
Highly recommend this location based on Fhanay’s excellent service alone.
