Top Historic Uptown Hotel Reviews

The Westshore Grand, A Tribute Portfolio Hotel, Tampa

6/10 Okay

"The hotel building was nice and the staff were friendly. The rooms were dated and the bed was uncomfortable. My expectation with Autograph hotels is that they should be above standard. This one was below standard, in my opinion. I’ve had nicer rooms with better in room amenities at a Red Roof. The TV brought be back to the 90s. No streaming capability and only 15ish live channels to choose from. The guide was a scrolling guide- nothing I could go through on my own. I haven’t seen the scrolling guide since I was a kid looking for cartoons on a Saturday morning. The bed was pretty terrible. I feel like the bottom of the bed was higher than the headboard- it seemed as if we were slightly tilted backwards while sleeping. It was a short stay- we checked in at 6pm and were out by 4:30am so I didn’t get a chance to see the rest of the hotel- but I would not stay there again based on the room."

RumFish Beach at TradeWinds

6/10 Okay

"Long line and no staff at front desk upon arrival. Elevators were broken majority of time and are very old, decrepit and honestly kinda scary. Room was on 5th floor, literally right across hall from elevator. Heard elevator dinging and loud voices of guests at all hours. No water pressure (shower/sink). Beds and pillows super uncomfortable. Pools are small and have no view of ocean and were heavily overcrowded. Positive notes: loved the coffee counter in the lobby and great location."

Clearwater Beach Sheraton Resort on Sand Key

8/10 Good

"The resort was great. Hate that I paid for a room for a week and had to also pay for parking. Always trying to get more money out of people who already are giving trust and money into somewhere for a week. Also our tv in the room had some major sound issues one min you could not hear then the next it was so load. But in all we had a great week and enjoyed much needed rest and sunshine"

Wyndham Grand Clearwater Beach

4/10 Poor

"Unfortunately, this was not the experience I expected. The hotel was not very accommodating, and despite arriving within the expected check-in timeframe, I had to wait until the last minute to receive my room. Communication regarding room readiness was poor and made the start of the trip unnecessarily stressful. I was also celebrating a milestone birthday during this trip and noted it with the hotel in advance. While I understand upgrades are never guaranteed, it was disappointing that no effort was made to acknowledge the occasion in any way. Even a small gesture would have gone a long way toward making the stay feel special. The pool area was another major disappointment. It was consistently overcrowded, loud, and chaotic, making it impossible to relax or enjoy the amenities. We were unable to use the pool during our stay because of the excessive crowds and disruptive behavior. Additionally, the overall atmosphere around the property did not feel welcoming or relaxing. There were many guests and visitors behaving in a loud and inconsiderate manner, which detracted from what should have been an enjoyable vacation experience. Between the delayed room availability, lack of accommodation from staff, overcrowded amenities, and complete lack of acknowledgment of a special occasion, this stay fell well short of expectations. Also without saying too much do expect “upscale” people staying here. Unfortunately, I would not choose to stay here again."

Opal Sands Resort

10/10 Excellent

"It was exceptionally designed, spacious rooms, nice workout facility, hot and amazing view of the sunset!! Front desk was kind and most helpful. The staff worked to insure we were pleased and exhibited much patience. We love the pool and pool services, amazing pool staff and bar/food service. We loved everything about our stay and would highly recommend this resort! ❤️"
