The room was a nice size and very clean to accommodate my wife’s handicap. I found the staff to be quite friendly. Not a single staff member past you by without a smile and hello. The valet staff was very helpful with helping me load, unload, and getting our things to the room. I can close by saying this, I’ve been a flight attendant for over 20 years now and have stayed in many hotels across the country, this hotel beats them all for nice rooms and friendly, helpful, courteous staff. And the hotel smelled great too! Would highly recommend to others.
As you can see from all these pics, the view from our room was fabulous!

The Westin Tampa Waterside was lovely, with comfortable beds, cold AC, and a friendly staff. The valet parking was the only drawback. I do not like people to drive my car. That being said, the hotel has plenty of underground parking for all people who check in on site, but it is only available to those who pay $50 for valet. I know there is a massive amount of parking because I walked through it on my way back to the hotel after parking my car in a garage 10 minutes away, paying $15 a day. The hotel is nice, with beautiful views of the area, and is conveniently located near the convention center and downtown areas. The included breakfast was also excellent, but the valet situation left a sour taste in my mouth.

Overall the property was nice. Reliable internet. Quality of breakfast buffet was excellent. Property is convenient to everything downtown, with restaurants/ bars within 25 ft. of front door. Several wall light fixtures were broken on 6th floor & ice machine was not available. Think $50 parking daily was pretty high cost. Overall, excellent for an older property.

Staff NEVER came to clean room. Don’t know about breakfast as they gave us a $15 voucher towards restaurant or bar but neglected to tell me it was o pay good for the day I checked in which was a late check in. I asked the front desk the next day and all I got was a shrug of her shoulders. What kind of service is that . Unfortunate for us that is the perfect location that we will be going every month as my daughter and her family just moved into that area. Luckily there more hotels just a bit further away. Will never stay there again
