Top Ed Smith Stadium Hotel Reviews

Kompose Boutique Hotel

8/10 Good

"Room was clean, but shower and bathroom shared door was not a smart idea"

Carlisle Inn

10/10 Excellent

"This is the best hotel in Sarasota."

Aloft by Marriott Sarasota

10/10 Excellent

"Excellent property and perfect location"

THE RESERVE RETREAT

10/10 Excellent

"Such a special, unique place to stay. Property was well maintained, room was spacious and clean, and you are centrally located to be able to experience all of what Sarasota has to offer. Will stay again when in the area."

Homewood Suites by Hilton Sarasota

10/10 Excellent

"Todo estaba bien , solo las camas un poco incómodas y pequeñas"

Golden Host Resort - Sarasota

8/10 Good

"I love how they had coffee available in the lobby Very nice ladies They do cook breakfast at a small price Very nice quality sheets, and pillows Nice big Pool with an area to hang out and barbecue with umbrellas and tables and chairs Not far from the airport they do have a nice tiki bar as well with live music would definitely go back"

The Sarasota Modern, a Tribute Portfolio Hotel

8/10 Good

"The location is great for downtown Sarasota activities and the staff were lovely. The valet was attentive and present (although the text messaging system they use was not functional when I tried it), the front desk staff was pleasant, and I had a great time talking to the bartenders at both the pool bar and at Wink Wink Food & Drink. The pool area was pleasant and quiet. Very comfy poolside loungers and was pretty well maintained. My dinner was stellar-- Ahi Tuna Nachos for the win! Plus creative and delicious cocktails. Many thanks for taking great care of me. Unfortunately, I will say that I was a bit disappointed in my 2nd floor room. For a hotel that bills itself as luxury and boutique, my room could have used more than a little upkeep. The sofa was badly water-stained and needed a deep clean. There were obvious paint repair marks on the walls/doors and scuffs on the floors. I found some mold in the shower and the grout was less than pristine. One of the lamps was slightly damaged and the light in the bathroom wasn't great (not enough ceiling cans and the mirror light was insufficient/cold ). Similarly, I noticed that the lobby floor could use maintenance or replacement, as it's showing obvious wear. All in all, I would stay here again, but if I wanted a truly luxury room, I might consider other properties. The pool bar and restaurant are really fun and I'd definitely patronize them again."

Americas Best Value Inn Sarasota Downtown

10/10 Excellent

"Everything was great"

Luxury Family Home Near Downtown & Siesta Key Beach
