Do Not Stay Here

Dude staff. The hotel room and hallways were filthy. The bed was very uncomfortable. There was a huge spider in my room. I stayed in the 6th floor. The elevators very very slow and didn't work properly. Terrible experience.

Disappointing Stay.

We recently stayed at Hyatt Place Tampa Busch Gardens to celebrate a birthday weekend, unfortunately, the experience was very disappointing. Our trip began with a series of flight delays—three in total. Each time, I called the hotel to keep them updated. We were reassured by the front desk (specifically someone named Greg) that our late arrival wouldn't be an issue and that our reservation would be notated accordingly. Despite our proactive communication, we were still charged for the first night, even though we clearly communicated that we wouldn’t arrive until the next day. Upon arrival, the front desk staff claimed that the charge was necessary to "hold the room" and that we should have called if we wanted to modify the reservation—but we did call, multiple times. The lack of consideration and unwillingness to accommodate a guest under these circumstances was both frustrating and disappointing. To make matters worse, the stay itself did not live up to any expectation of what you’d expect from a Hyatt-branded property—let alone one carrying the Busch Gardens name. The breakfast was bland and unappetizing, with little flavor or variety. The elevators and hallways had a noticeable odor, and the carpets throughout the halls and in our room were stained and in need of a deep cleaning.While the proximity to Busch Gardens is a plus, that is the only thing this hotel has going for it. We would not recommend this location and definitely will not stay here again. Not a great stay.

I was visiting a friend at the cancer hospital that was near. The room was nice, clean and quiet. I’d recommend this hotel to someone in the same situation. Priced right, convenient and quiet.

Great hotel and location but had a few problems. The shower drain smelled like rotten eggs leaving the room to smell. Also, there was a fire ant infestation in our room that was bad. We had to throw away luggage and the hotel staff were unable to help due to liability concerns.

We stayed for 2 nights and 3 days. I am so happy we chose this hotel. The room was spacious, beds were comfortable, and the room was clean. The hotel had a shuttle that would take their guest to Bush Gardens and Adventure Island. The breakfast was very good and with options. I will definitely stay at this hotel when we travel to Tampa again. Thank you to all the staff.

Mediocre Hotel

Bed was comfortable, staff was friendly & accommodating, pool area was relaxing. The cleanliness & condition of the Hyatt is not what it used to be. Hotel can use renovations to improve the quality toward attracting more guests
