Residence Inn by Marriott Sebring

My husband and I went to Sebring, Florida to visit some friends for 5 days and this was our first time staying at a Residence Inn by Marriott. We were both quite impressed as we didn't know what to expect. When we arrived at 6:00 pm it took less than 5 minutes to check in and receive our room key. We were given a Lake View King Room with a Sofa bed on the first floor and it was beautiful! Since our room choice didn't have a photo on the Residence Inn website when I was researching hotels, (where the photo was supposed to be it said, "coming soon") I wasn't sure what to expect! I was pleasantly surprised at how luxurious it was! The room was extremely clean and well-maintained. We had a small kitchenette with a full-size refrigerator, microwave, 2 burner stove, cookware, plates/utensils, coffee mugs, and glassware for 4 people. It also had a coffee maker (with 3 packets of coffee provided). The freezer also had an icemaker inside. We didn't take advantage of having a kitchenette because we ended up eating lunches and dinners out with the friends we were visiting but it was nice to have if we wanted to use it! The bedroom contained a king-size bed that was extremely comfortable with very soft luxurious sheets/comforter and lots of pillows to keep us cozy and extra bedding was in the closet in a zippered case if needed for the sleeper sofa that was in the living room. The bedroom also had a good-sized TV if you like to watch TV in bed! The bathroom layout was nice and roomy with the vanity separate from the shower & toilet. Shower gel, shampoo, and conditioner were provided in pump containers as a convenience inside the shower. The towels were large and soft and felt very luxurious and a hairdryer was in the vanity cupboard. The ironing board and iron along with a laundry basket were inside the closet in the bathroom. I was impressed that our room was fairly soundproof as we didn't hear our neighbors on either side which was a blessing! A large TV was in the living room and had a nice Welcome message with my name on it when we arrived which was a first for me! The real bonus was the scrumptious hot buffet that was provided every morning just off to the side of the lobby. Every day a selection of regular & decaf coffee was available, (along with hot chocolate packets or hot tea packets). Food choices were numerous and the options included bagels, English muffins, and individually wrapped blueberry muffins. Also provided daily were scrambled eggs, a breakfast meat that changed daily (like chicken sausage, pork sausage or bacon) biscuits & gravy, hot oatmeal with a large assortment of toppings, a waffle maker, hard-boiled eggs, a variety of cereal boxes, yogurts, fresh fruits, and 3 kinds of juices. I've never had such good breakfast choices before in a hotel. The staff did an excellent job of keeping the buffet items replenished so there was always fresh food available. There was more than enough seating available for guests who came for the breakfast buffet. The staff that I interacted with were all extremely friendly and helpful. All in all, this was by far the best hotel experience I've ever had and we will definitely be staying at this hotel again if ever in Sebring.

Nice place

Great stay! Decent complimentary breakfast. Nice clean attractive rooms.

The hotel and staff were great! FAR better than the process of trying to book it with LOYALTY points earned with hotels.com…THAT was a nightmare.

Faucet in the bathroom broke had to use the tub to brush our teeth

Exactly what we expected for the price. All positive. No negatives. Nothing to complain about.

Breakfast was ok. Nothing great. They were picking up early

Hot tub jets were broken. Hot tub was the only reason I booked here

This Residence Inn has been one of the better travel/stay experiences I have ever had. Other than the Florida humidity which makes things a little musky it was otherwise perfect. They offer a ton of on site amenities and their breakfast each morning was varied and fresh. Truly a wonderful stay if you’re ever in the Sebring area.
