GALAXY HOTEL

10/10 Excellent

Avalon Hotel Downtown St. Petersburg

10/10 Excellent

"The poolside seating was great. We were able to get the same table every time so we were comfortable. The room was very clean and ready for us 3 hours early. We checked with the desk when we arrived to get a parking pass and he called less than a half hour later and said our room was ready. The AC in the room was very cool. "

Hilton St. Petersburg Bayfront

8/10 Good

"We were there to go to a Tampa Bay Rowdies game, so the hotel location was perfect for that. Was surprised by the $45 valet parking fee. No indication that self parking was available. Also was not able to obtain a luggage cart without the use of a bell hop, which means needing to tip, but the hotel is cashless, so couldn't get any smaller bills for a $20 bill. Once in our room the mini-fridge didn't work. No one at the front desk answers the phone. All room needs are communicated via text messages."

Hyatt Place St. Petersburg / Downtown

10/10 Excellent

"Very nice breakfast - both hot and cold options. Really delich coffee. Clean spacious room; comfy beds and pillows. Quiet. Area is very walkable to museums, Tropicana Field, shops. Excellent restaurants close by - Mio’s Grille and Cafe on 2nd Street just a few steps from hotel."

Mint House St. Petersburg Downtown by Kasa

8/10 Good

"Location was perfect for the Tropicana Field for the games, although the water pressure was very low and for the valet some were very good and assisted often, some needed to pay more attention to the guest the room was clean and very well set up although I do recommend if you sign into a streaming service be sure to sign back out the staff was very friendly and helpful"
