Sheraton Tampa Riverwalk Hotel

Older, but clean Hotel

Very convenient to Downtown Tampa and convention center. Older 5 story hotel, but well kept. Staff was very friendly and helpful. Only parking was valet, and they charged $16 a night to park. More expensive than I expected, but good experience overall.

Valet nightmare

Aside from being charged $16.00 for each night, the valet staff was awful. There were two valets that did an excellent job, but several very young valets, were lazy, rude, and not always present to pick up the car.

Nice Hotel...A few quirks

This was a nice hotel. The only suggestion I would make to those of you planning to use the provided hairdryer is that you may want to consider bringing your own. They are kept in a cubby by the sink that was dusty and the hairdryer collected alot of dust. Otherwise, the staff was extremely helpful and easy to work with. The food at the lobby restaurant was better than I expected. Great location for downtown Tampa business travelers.

Nice renovation

This hotel used to be a Radisson, where I stayed in Feb. 2001. According to the hotel manager (who checked me in), Sheraton has put nearly $10 million in renovating the hotel. The rooms themselves were quite well done, with nice, contemporary furnishings, plasma TVs, etc. The hallways needed sprucing up, or at least some wall paper, and the ice machine (which was nicely hidden) was very noisy. The service was very good, as I had booked a king bed, but they didn't have any left at the rate I booked for. So the manager gave me a riverfront room at no extra cost, which I definately appreciated. The only drawback to the riverfront room, which has a balcony, is that being on the lower floors (there are only 4 floors), the first floor roof is visible, and is not very pretty. The room was very comfortable, at a good price, and had free wi-fi. The valet was quick, and they had unlimited in-and-out at no extra charge.

Great room for the money

The hotel is in a great location. The staff was very friendly. They provide free transportation for drop off and pickup within 3 miles of the hotel.

Sheraton Tampa Riverwalk - Not bad, but not great either

The hotel is pretty nice, and is in a good location right by the river, so there are some pleasant views. There's a very nice pool, workout facility and restaurant. The only problem I experienced was the service when I checked in was substandard. When I first pulled up the valet guys acted as if they were a little perturbed that I wanted to park for a moment and check in before moving my car. They gave me a parking stub anyhow, which would later cause a problem at checkout, because I was charged for four days of parking, when I hadn't parked at the hotel at all. I parked a few blocks away, at the 24 hour Fort Brook Garage, which was a good move because it was half the price of using the Sheraton's valet only parking. Also at check in, I was issued a room that had only one full-size bed, when I was told I was receiving a king size. When I called down to the front desk, the woman still wanted to convince me that the bed was king size. Later, though, after speaking with another desk rep, I was moved to another room. Other than that, no issues, and I would stay there again.

Friendly Staff

Overall a good hotel for a fair price. Parking cost $16 a night. Disappointed with my experience at the on location restaurant. The restaurant was short staffed for the breakfast crowd and worst of all they only had decaf coffee.
