Hotel Tampa Riverwalk offers a convenient location close to the convention center, the Riverwalk recreation area, and various parks, restaurants, and attractions like Sparkman’s Wharf. The hotel provides various bedroom combos, an outdoor pool, an indoor workout area, and both a pool bar and an indoor bar. The onsite restaurant, River’s Edge, serves breakfast, lunch, and dinner, with some guests finding the food decent or exceeding expectations, especially with the view. Service is frequently noted as great, super friendly, and amazing, with a smart and helpful front desk staff and valet. The experience has notable contrasts. The lobby and restaurant are described as up-to-date and beautiful, while some hallways and rooms feel outdated and dreary. Rooms are generally clean and spacious with nice views and good curtains, but beds and pillows can be uncomfortable or vary greatly. Amenities like WiFi are solid, and the building structure provides good noise cancellation, though occasional road noise or internal noises from plumbing or fire alarms are mentioned. Some guests reported insufficient toiletries like shampoo or soap for families, and only travel-size bottles are provided. The pool and fitness center are appreciated, but service at the pool bar can be inconsistent. The hotel is not fully ADA compliant for scooter or wheelchair users. While many had a great stay and would return, others felt the value for the price was not worth it due to these mixed elements.
Great stay during the 2025 Tampa Bay Comic Con. Close to the convention center, River Walk (naturally), and than channel area. Plenty of restaurants nearby, but the in house bar was cozy.
Highly reccomended!

As the other reviews have stated, the rooms are outdated, needs a renovation....BUT, it was clean, nice location, and amazing service.
Just suck it up and use the $25 voucher at the onsite restaurant.

Where shall I begin. Broken iron, room not made up 2 days of a three day stay. Sitting here waiting on towels so I can shower and get dressed for a gala. Barking dog next door. It’s all wrong. Very disappointed
