Stayed here for a couple nights for a conference being held here. Nice new, clean facilities, a rather over-the-top lobby, nice location on the inter-coastal waterway. Our room was really nice, had plug-in cable internet for $10 for our entire stay (3 days/2 nights)--was some kind of special. There was also free wireless throughout the common spaces in the hotel... more

I was in Tampa for a convention and Marriott Tampa Waterside was conveniently located next to the convention center. Also, the trolley station leading to Ybor is directly across the street. Free wifi in lobby, still have to pay in the rooms. Luckily, lobby had plenty of comfortable seating, nice lobby bar. Rooms were average chain hotel style - nothing... more

Nice well appointed hotel. Little on the big side though, felt like a marble rattling about. I imagine during a conference this would be a great hotel more

This was a great stay. You couldn't beat the view and the room was nice and comfortable. What I liked: Comfy bed, great view, yummy food and good food service, friendly front desk people... My only negatives: For some reason, the door handle in the bathroom was positioned in such a way that I ended up hitting my head on... more

I'm a frequent business traveler and I end up in Tampa often for work. I've tried a few other hotels in the city, but I am sold on the Marriott Waterside. The lobby was beautiful. The room was large and immaculately clean. The view of the bay from the 16th floor was incredible. Great staff. Very friendly and helpful. The... more

Location I chose the hotel because of its close proximity to the Tampa Convention Center. We spent the majority of our stay at the hotel and the convention center. The hotel is in... more

I stayed here one night for a conference across the street at the Convention Center. The location was convenient. The lobby is lovely, and the bar in the lobby was nice - busy but not too loud. My room was typical Marriott. However, it was not as clean as I expect from this chain. The sheets had grey marks on... more

We stayed here because of its proximity to the St. Pete Times Forum (for a concert). The location was great, we were able to walk to the concert. The lobby is very pretty, the breakfast buffet was good and the food at the sports bar was good too. The rooms are pretty basic (nothing in the mini bar), but clean... more

Was here for a convention and it is a typical, nice Marriott property with excellent views. Lots of dining close in the Channelside area along with the Port and the Florida Aquarium. Staff was really nice, especially Joyce, the housekeeper on 18th floor (I don't think I have ever been able to say anything special about a housekeeper before). more
