    “Beautiful location the water street property on the water. The Riverwalk is a lot better than the JW Marriott location across the street also so you get some parks for example you get $20 our food and drink each day you get two water taxi trips. If you had to pay for it to be $35 each for the day.”

  • Extremely disappointing – unacceptable room and unresolved billing issues

    “The Location was perfect for attending an NHL Game at the stadium nearby.”

  • The common spaces (lobby, etc.) were lovely. The rooms were basic. For the money spent.

  • You Made this a Very Happy Birthday!

    “Happy Birthday to me! Spent a truly lovely, solo weekend in Tampa. I poured over many Trip Advisor reviews before choosing the Marriott Water Street. It met all of my expectations and I enjoyed your beautiful hotel immensely. My top priority was security and location. Check! I was comfortable going out at night on the waterfront and walking the street in all directions. The convention center is less than a 5 minute walk from the hotel. Of course, the price point heightened my expectations and the hotel delivered. I ate in 4 of the 6 hotel restaurants. Had delicious shrimp and crab enchiladas at LONA. Enjoyed a tasty Pressed Cuban at A La Carte. I chose the Anchor and Brine breakfast buffet on Saturday--even though I wanted the chocolate banana crepes--and enjoyed all of the offerings. I never do, but I did the scrambled eggs rather than an omelette and was very pleased. What did they put in those eggs? My room, a deluxe king, on the 24th floor was spacious, well-appointed and had a balcony that overlooked the waterfront. I love that the A/C vent was not over or directed toward the bed, I don't like cold drafts. The TV is positioned at just the right height, centrally located in front of the bed. My extra pillows that I ordered--1 foam and 1 down, was waiting for me when I entered the room. Check! My room was the 4th from the elevator. I never heard the elevator or any of the other travelers once I closed my door. I must mentioned the names of the professional, attentive and helpful staff: Alexa, Brent, Malachi, Gloria, Precious and Chris. Each time we spoke I could see their smiles--even over the phone. My one complaint has to do with a couple of bellmen (appeared to be older than age 40)--one at the curve and another inside. Neither was helpful and I had 2 pieces of luggage. Didn't appear to have a lot of joy for the job.”

  • This hotel is built on broken promises and misleading its guests

    “Great place to stay for a couple days while visiting Tampa. Close to the attractions and place to eat. Rooms are large and beds are super comfortable. M Lounge is large and always has something good to snack on. Three on site places to eat and with the sky bridge you have access to another three across at the JW Marriott. Great pool location with private cabanas and sitting areas. It is really busy here with conferences at the convention center or events at the hotel itself.”
