Top University Hotel Reviews

Seminole Hard Rock Hotel & Casino Tampa

10/10 Excellent

"Friendly staff. Very clean and spacious room."

Embassy Suites by Hilton Tampa Downtown Convention Center

8/10 Good

"The hotel has the best location in the area. Valet parking is expensive in the hotel, but it is situated next to a public parking which was great. The breakfast was also amazing and the rooms very comfortable. We loved our stay and can easily come back. However we had some trouble with the AC unit. It didn’t go below 68, but it really felt like 72. Some nights we we woke up sweating."

Hotel Haya

10/10 Excellent

"The hotel is centrally located in historic Yibor City. Less than a block away is the city trolley which can take you to downtown Tampa or through Yibor City. Walking distance to restaurants, bars, and nightclubs. Very busy during holidays and weekends. Parking can be valet or self parking near the hotel. Great staff, service, and food at the Haya Hotel. We are looking forward to coming back soon!"
