Renaissance Tampa International Plaza Hotel

We stayed at the Renaissance for one night after flying in from London and had an absolutely lovely experience. The rooms were spacious, clean, and very quiet—perfect for a good night’s rest. Everyone we encountered, from front desk to housekeeping, was polite and well-mannered, which made us feel really welcome. The location is also a big plus—just a short walk to the nearby shopping mall, which was really convenient for picking up a few essentials and grabbing a bite to eat. The only downside was the shower—both the pressure and temperature were a bit inconsistent. It took a good 10 minutes for the water to heat up, so definitely plan ahead if you’re in a rush. Aside from that, everything was great and we would definitely recommend staying here!

I loved this hotel! I was there for four night attending a conference. The breakfast and lunch served to us during our conference was wonderful! So tasty and delicious. The staff was wonderful and always ready to assist. The happy hour drinks were also well made . I ate dinner once in the restaurant and ordered the fig and pig pizza. I highly recommend. I have the room four stars only because there was no hand held shower and I know most of the hotels do t have that, it’s just my personal preference. Everything was clean and well appointed.

Horrendous experience checking with front desk staff member. Condescending and unprofessional. Asked for manager, a small portly woman. And within seconds I understood why the staff member felt she could project an attitude. Obviously trained by this "manager"! Food was incredibly bland and expensive. Now charging for self parking, in an unsecured area of the shopping malls car park!!! How does that make any sense? Rooms were nice and hotel was clean. Most of the rest of the staff were nice.
