The Bistro Eat. Drink. Connect.

I had different issues there for my one week stay: staff very rude when checking in, for several days in a row other technical issues. No response to some urgent requests I had, although some were promptly answered (thanks to the TV guy), so it’s unequal. Hotel being refurbished not comfortable. People overall (except the young lady at the reception who was nice and the TV guy) working there should really make more effort in making guests feel welcome and having a sense of service !

Great stay! The rooms are freshly redone and very comfortable. The staff was super helpful, especially dealing with our young grandchildren. We all loved the indoor pool. The Bistro was great for breakfast, although the dinner menu is limited. Only parking is valet, but this is downtown Saint Pete!

Nice clean hotel. Right downtown St. Petersburg. It’s old structure but well maintained and it looked great. Room clean and comfy bed. Kept car on valet, otherwise you need find a parking around the area. Lots small restaurants within perimeter. Would of loved to see the pool but just stayed 1 night. During check in Ameer was very professional and answered all our questions. Great customer service by the young gentleman. Hope be back soon for another nice relaxing night

Okay the hotel is a bit old fashioned and dated and the rooms need some modernisation but the room was clean and tidy. The staff were also good. I had a corner room (205) and it was a reasonable size. The down side was that the TV was small and old fashioned with no channel list and the tap in the bath would drip away constantly. However that said, its not the end of the world. The breakfast option is not great though if you have it included with the room rate. You have a very basic choice of two cold or one hot option and a coffee or small cold drink. The restaurant was also closed after breakfast. Not a major issue as plenty of places within walking distance but surprised the hotel does not cash in on offering an evening meal option. Try the Hollander Tap bar which is a 5 minute walk away. Parking is valet at $25 per day. All very efficient in that you can text for your car to be ready. A slight shame that at the daily rate that you don’t get a bottle of water in the room though. There is an option to buy in the foyer though. Good location and about a 10 minute walk to the beach front area. Would i stay again, yes but at the right price. Note that the rooms are due a make over with bath room’s according to receptionist being refitted soon.

I stayed at the Courtyard by Marriott St. Petersburg Downtown due to its location being exactly where I needed it to be. The hotel is an average hotel, older and run down in ways. The air-conditioner ran very loud at night, ear plugs were a must. The temperature of the room was comfortable, as was the bed. With ear plugs, I slept very well. The room was in need of a serious structural cleaning. For example, the chair had stains all over it, I did not sit on it without a towel to cover it. The wallpaper was dirty, both the walls in the bedroom and the bathroom. The bathtub/shower area had poorly done calking that was in need of attention. The cleaning staff that I interacted with were all very nice and accommodating. I do not think this is a cleaning staff issue, it appears more of a management/ need for higher attention issue. There was a mini fridge in the room that I appreciated. I chose street parking over valet as I wasn't at the hotel during the day, it was fairly easy to find at night, less so during the day.
