Guest Reviews

• Erling (8/5): -
• Corey (10/5): - Gorgeous and well maintained!
• Joachim (2/5): Disappointing - Location next to noisy highway; you hear the noise and you cant sleep
• dontneeddrama (10/5): The Spy who loved Me - So, who's your favorite Bond? Daniel Craig? Pierce Brosnan? Connery, probably the best. Probably not Roger Moore, although he did a decent job. The song from one of his films, is the point here. Nobody does it Better, well, at least as Tampa hotels go. The Epicurean remains as the best of the hotels in Tampa. Have not stayed in any of the downtown hotels but feel free to spend a large amount at one of those places. But here, it's like putting on that favorite pair of jeans. Comfortable, fits just right. The front desk crew, pleasant and courteous as always. Ever helpful. And who offers a glass of wine at check-in? No place I know of. The rooms, comfortable, quiet. All you need. Still amusing, the amount and variety of alcohol options in the in room bar. Certainly cannot call it a mini bar. Not with these size bottles available. Adds to the unique character of this hotel. A blissful shower. And the quality of the restaurant food remains excellent. Location, food, room. All the best. Except for the parking, remains valet only. Ah, well. Maybe your favorite Bond movie is You Only Live Twice. But make sure those two lives include stays here.
• Kim (9/5): - nbed mattress could have been more comfortable.
• catherine (1/5): Never ever going to stay here again - Staff were rude and no response when asked about Changing date Nothing
• Lorentz (10/5): -

• Bucci (10/5): -

• WildRover1960 (10/5): Lovely hotel so convenient to Bern’s - We stayed here to celebrate our first anniversary and also had dinner across the street at Bern’s. Both were exemplary. We were given a really gorgeous suite. The in-room amenities are fantastic including pre-mixed cocktails, wine and beer. The bathroom was as big as some hotel rooms and included separate large soaking tub and shower stall. The staff were great too. Highly recommended!
• Francine (10/5): - Clean
• Shannon (10/5): - Across the street from one of the best steakhouses I’ve been to!
• Jessica (10/5): - Staff was very accommodating. Confortable room.
• Erling (9/5): Will visit again - Location, staff, service & offerings No exhaust in the bathroom, paint spots on the blackout curtains
• Robert (10/5): - Room was gorgeous and staff was super helpful
• cece (10/5): - I loved everything about this hotel. As someone who is big on cleanliness & customer service, everything was 10/10. Will definitely be back.
• Ana (10/5): - Everything!
• Frank (10/5): - Went for our anniversary. Really enjoyed the location to major Tampa attractions. Walking distance of perfect shopping and eats. Literally, across the street from Bern’s steakhouse.
• Paul (9/5): -
• Stephen (10/5): - Great area well done beautiful hotel. Famous Berns steakhouse across the street. Hidden gem
• Laura (10/5): - We liked they charged our tesla
• Expattraveler100 (10/5): Excellent - no doubt about it! - Super hotel in all areas. Boutique style modern hotel that’s just a few years old. Has a food and beverage theme throughout. Rooms are very very nice, clean, fresh and enjoyable to experience. There’s a safe in the room, fridge, drinks and snacks. We had a junior suite and it had a large sofa bed, microwave, and delightful bathroom. I’d stay here again every time I’m in Tampa! If you’re headed for dinner to Berns, it’s literally across the street. Hotels parking is valet only at $25 night.

• allansM1941TH (10/5): A Great place to stay. - Great location for one of the finest resturants in Florida/US. Very friendly and a happening hotel. I would ask for additional pillows. Bikes for the 1st hr are compliementary. The team was very friendly.
• Marek (10/5): - Fantastic!
• F5996PDmargaretc (8/5): Lost of my Jewelry - First off I wanted to say we have stayed her a few times, and the place is lovely, staff has always been wonderful, but we traveled to the hotel Saturday June7th for a one night stay and checked out Sunday around noon time. I always place my jewelry in one of the water glasses and (necklace & earrings) and for the first time ever left the room without putting them on. We had a lovely breakfast and off to our 3pm flight back to Boston. The flight ended up being delayed for a few hours, and we arrived home late Sunday night. I was getting dressed to go to work and when I went to put on my earrings and necklace I felt a wave of panic that oh my gosh I left them in the water glass at the hotel. I called and spoke to a young women who told me she would check back with me shortly. I waited a bit and then placed another call, and this time spoke to a women named Maya. She was so understanding of my worry and sick feeling, and said she would speak to the women that cleaned my room. Not ten minutes later and I get a call back from a women saying this is Maya and we did not find your jewelry. I thought it funny as it was minutes between the calls and her voice was not the same as the women I just spoke to, I did not say anything about just speaking to Maya, but asked for sure they checked the water glasses. She told me the cleaning staff clean the glasses and they did not see the Van Cleff necklace or the diamond earrings. I can't tell you how sick I still am over this. Within the hour I get a call back from Maya, Mrs C. I checked with the cleaning staff no one found anything. I proceeded to state again they were in the water glass. She said let me check as the glasses are cleaned in the kitchen, and I will check with them. So I'm not sure if they have two Maya's working for them. I was given a call back and once again nothing was found. She told me she would have her Supervisor Darren call me, which he did and said we have a periodical and I will let you know the outcome. The outcome was not good. I'm sick over this, and yes my fault for not putting them on, and devastated to the core of the loss of my pieces that had wonderful memories. I stated again, maybe they stacked the glasses on top of each other and not noticing. I keep praying to Saint Anthony. Also I'm 10000% I left them in that glass. My husband and I went to have breakfast, and said I was about to say something to you when they walked over with our amazing breakfast and was distracted. He said I was just about to say where is your necklace. We had at this point checked out of our room.
• Isabel (8/5): - The hotel staff and property were great, super helpful, friendly and knowledgeable able the area. The only down side about The Epicurean is the pool area, it’s like a holiday in pool, it would be great if they remodel so it matches the rest of the property great features
• Geoffrey (10/5): - Staff friendly and helpful
• Mary Kay (10/5): - Quiet and clean
• Thomas (10/5): - Generally very good. Nice bar. Great staff.
• Molly (7/5): For the price, I feel like we should’ve been taken care of better - That it was small great location The parking situation was a joke. They wanted to charge for a full day to have your car there for an hour. The valley guys were not nice. The property does not have one microwave on the property. That’s not good considering having a child that needs their bottle warmed up. The manager said they don’t even have one in their kitchen. The other negative was sitting at the pool or sitting on the patio, it always smelled like trash. I don’t know if it was from the kitchen or what but the smell was awful outside. Other than that it was a nice hotel
• Autumn (10/5): Loved it! - Great spot. Food is great. Service top notch. We will be back
• Z2748XEdavidg (10/5): A Charming Wedding Weekend Retreat - I flew over from the UK for a wedding and the Epicurean was a lovely surprise from the moment I stepped inside. My room was beautifully styled—especially that marble bathroom—and wonderfully comfortable after a long flight. Breakfast in the Lobby Bar set us up nicely for the day, and evening drinks on the EDGE rooftop with the Tampa skyline were thoroughly enjoyable. Between the attentive team, calming spa treatments and the inviting pool, it made for a perfectly relaxing wedding weekend.
• V644UFlouiseg (10/5): Fantastic hotel find! - We stayed at the Epicurean Hotel in Tampa last week and had a truly fantastic experience—wish we could have stayed longer! The location is absolutely perfect, with lots of great local restaurants and shops within easy walking distance. There's even an incredible homemade ice cream shop just across the carpark that was a hit with the whole family! From the moment we arrived, the staff were all incredibly friendly and helpful—nothing was too much trouble. Our room was spacious, bright, modern, and spotless. With two large queen beds, it was perfect for our family of four and gave us plenty of room to relax together. The food at the hotel was delicious—we enjoyed both breakfast and dinner, and the coffee was spot-on too. The pool area is a peaceful little oasis with fancy, comfy sunbeds that made it feel extra luxurious. Parking was easy with the valet service, and everything about our stay just felt seamless and relaxing. We would highly recommend the Epicurean Hotel and will definitely be back next time we're in the Tampa area!
• richardhY4942WU (10/5): Outstanding - I had the absolute pleasure of staying at the Epicurean Hotel in Tampa from April 11–13 while visiting from the UK for my daughter's wedding, and I can genuinely say the experience exceeded every expectation. From the moment I arrived, I was struck by the warm, welcoming atmosphere and the beautifully designed interiors. The food and beverage theming throughout the hotel is not only tasteful but perfectly curated — it adds a distinctive charm that sets this hotel apart. My room (309) was spotless, incredibly comfortable, and thoughtfully appointed. Every detail had been considered, and the overall cleanliness and attention to guest comfort was outstanding. Special thanks must go to Ashton Hatter, the Front Office Manager, who looked after me with such professionalism and care. Ashton clearly runs a tight ship — it’s evident he’s respected by both the team and guests, and he ensured everything during my stay flowed seamlessly. Nick, the Food & Beverage Manager, also deserves a mention for his attentiveness and for overseeing such a memorable dining experience. The food was absolutely superb — especially the post-wedding brunch, which was a highlight for me. The theatre kitchen venue was truly unique and added a special flair to the occasion. A big thank you as well to Audrey Greminger, Director of Sales, for her gracious hospitality and for helping make the wedding weekend run so beautifully. And to Housekeeping — your work does not go unnoticed. The room was immaculate and serviced with care and consistency throughout my stay. This hotel is a real gem. Everyone I encountered was friendly, professional, and genuinely invested in making my visit special. I’m so happy I made the trip — not just for the wedding, but for the chance to stay at such a remarkable place. Thank you all for the unforgettable experience. Warmest regards, Richard
• peterhO2168CG (10/5): Friendly and Genuine Hospitality at the Epicurean Hotel. - Really nice buzz about the hotel. The staff are kind, professional and genuine. Nice pool for a welcome dip. I can't fault the rooms, the showers are the best. Location really works It is just 15 mins from the airport and a nice walk to Hyde park shipping and dining. We were attending a wedding and the food and service was perfectly well done by the F&B.. team.
• David (10/5): - Great staff Not super close to anything but clean and a good value
• Anthony (10/5): Great Hotel, wonderful staff. - NA
• Patrick (10/5): Exceptional -
• Katelin (10/5): - Friendly staff close to lots of bars and restaurants. Easy check in and valet service.
• Marcia (10/5): Tampa the right way - We had a wonderful time, valet very prompt. We ate in the restaurant twice, which was very good. Easy to get around. I would go back again.
• Joan (9/5): Wonderful surprise, will try to stay again when we can stay longer. - Food was excellent, served quickly, beautiful presentation, nice flavors, generous amounts. The staff were friendly and helpful. The complimentary glass of wine on checkin was a delightful surprise after a serveral hour drive. The decor was inviting and different, food and wine inspired. Comfortable chairs and tables in the restaurant, inviting customers to linger. A small amount of noise in the morning was annoying as some repair?? was being made next door to my room.
• Ann (10/5): - Great location
• Natalie (6/5): - I thought this would be a cute boutiquey hotel. Room looked like a depressing superficial redo. Restaurant was ok but staff at the restaurant were very nice and attentive.
• Rainer (6/5): - All in all it’s a beautiful hotel. We had booked a 2 night stay in the Executive Suite which are all in a building across the street so you are disconnected from the main hotel. To go to the bar, restaurant or other facilities you had to cross the street My main problem was that the building seemed unfinished. In the small little lobby by the elevators was a big dehydrator running with cables running over the floor, which seemed pretty unsafe. No place to sit , no pictures on the wall, no decorations whatsoever. The suite was nice and spacious but again it looked unfinished and it seemed the layout of the furniture was badly planned or the furniture was ordered and didn’t fit the way they had planned. There was a lounge chair in the bedroom which obviously belonged to the sectional in the living area. The lunch chair was in front of the window which made it very difficult , almost impossible, to lower the shades. At the end of the lounge chair was a midsized table which we had to move out of the way in order to get to the closet. There was one picture over the left side of the bed which was a bit awkward. Not sure if the picture over the right side of the bed was missing? Just very strange to look at. Our toilet was not flushing at times and we had to call for maintenance twice. Some of the grout between the floor and the wall tiles was missing. Seriously a bad tile job. No table or chairs for room service dining. For $ 700 a night I would expect a little more perfection.
• Arthur (10/5): Exceptional -
• Marcos (10/5): - Nice welcome
• Caterina (10/5): - Hotel staff is very friendly. Hotel is clean. Rooms are spacious and comfortable.
• Liza (10/5): Excellent! - It was amazing! Best hotel experience we’ve had in the last 5 years. Just an impeccable lobby, bar, restaurant, room… bravo!!!
• Curtis (10/5): - Great location for Berns
• Kourtney (10/5): Exceptional -
• Mark (10/5): Berns steak house trip - From the time we pulled into the vallet the service was very good. We walked in and got our room, and they gave us a glass of wine that hit the spot after a 3-hour drive. We went to the Berns steak house across the street and had the best dinner experience. Before going to dinner went to the hotel bar and the bartender was awesome and very friendly.
• Sunvsclouds (10/5): Love the Vibe Here - I really like this hotel, have stayed twice and will stay again. It's on the smaller side but has all the amenities I'm looking for; nice decor, places to hang in the lobby with my own wine if I want, a nice bar/restaurant, pool, small gym, a roof top bar and a couple of neighborhood restaurants and a coffee shop in walking distance (there is complimentary coffee in the lobby in the mornings). The rooms I've stayed in have been comfortable. Both stays so far, I've been on the front side of the building however road noise hasn't been an issue, just pull down the black out shade to block the sunrise. The beds are comfy and the bathroom has a great over sized shower. Toiletries are a bit minimal however that doesn't bother me. Nice mini bar for a price. No room fridge. Great proximity to Hyde Park and its shops and restaurants as well as Bay Shore Blvd. for a morning run or walk. About a five minute drive for those. The airport and downtown areas about 15 minutes, the beaches more like 40 + minutes. There's on site parking which is valet, not sure of the cost as I don't rent a car. It's across the street from the famed Bern's Steakhouse and there's a package you can book with the hotel to get a reservation at Bern's. They do weddings and business meetings however neither have been a bother for me. There is a tented space on the back side of the building for events with might be an issue for those rooms, something to maybe consider asking about at check in. Overall, it's been a great place for me.
• Kevyn (8/5): - Good spot. Street noise can be loud depending on room. Definitely get Howard side if possible
• Aisha (9/5): Superb -
• Diane (10/5): - Loved the ambiance. Staff very friendly. Good location
• Ricardo (8/5): - The hotel was pretty good. I did not appreciate housekeeping coming to knock at my door before 8am though. The price for 1 drink at $20.00 is very expsensive.
• ROBERT (10/5): - Great
• Brian (10/5): - Staff was absolutely top notch. Noise from the interstate was really loud
• Kris (10/5): Always a pleasure - When we are in Tampa we always stay at the Epicurean. From the welcome glass of wine to the comfortable room, we are always happy.
• Joseph (10/5): - I have stayed here several times. Everything about this hotel is simply perfect.
• ThorwaldVikingAsgaar (8/5): Epicurean Hotel, Marriott Autograph Collection - South Tampa, Florida - The Epicurean Hotel, part of the Marriott Autograph Collection is a chic, modern, unique comfortable boutique hotel in sunny South Tampa, close to famous Bern steak restaurants in Tampa. The staff incl. valet was friendly, attentive and professional. At check-in you are also offered a glass of wine which was a nice touch and beats the chocolate cookie of the competition :). Rooms and bathrooms are clean and spacious. Water pressure is solid. AC works smoothly and quietly. Rooftop bar has gorgeous views over Tampa. Fitness center is well equipped. Overall a very solid stay, although price point is at the higher end of the spectrum of hotels in Tampa. Would return for another stay.
• Wendy (10/5): - Our stay was outstanding! Ingrid did our checkin and provided excellent suggestions for places to visit while we are in the area. We were advised on hotels. Com that the valet parking was free but ended up being charged $20 for it so that should be corrected on the site.
• FarAway278695 (6/5): For the price, I've had better stays - I stayed in this hotel for one night on a reimbursed business trip. I would not spend my own money to stay here. It's upscale and funky, with interesting decor and complimentary wine at check-in. But they don't seem to have the basics quite right. Housekeeping rang my doorbell three times in the morning, beginning at 8:30, as they wanted to make up the room after I left. There was no Do Not Disturb sign to hang on the door. I mentioned this to the front desk at checkout, and the attendant told me there was actually a privacy button near the door. (I never saw it.) What is the use of having a noon checkout if you keep getting interrupted and feel like you're being rushed out? The luxury rainfall shower was so complicated that it required two sets of printed instructions in the bathroom. Meanwhile, water pressure in the bathroom sink was low, and the rooms are not well-insulated. I could hear doors slamming and voices in the hallway despite wearing earplugs. The location was good for walking around to find food and shopping. The adjacent ice cream store had a nice selection.
• Paul (2/5): - I got the most expensive suite in one of the most expensive hotels in Tampa and my television didn’t work. Asked to be moved and they did not move me. The staff seems completely frustrated and overwhelmed & acted like I was bothering them. Check in was a joke. Very rude.
• thimmiah (10/5): - Excellent location friendly staff ,plethora of dining options
• Peter (9/5): Superb -
• Mark (10/5): - Beautiful hotel and a pleasure to stay, if you are not used to Tampa, the hotel is in a nice area with Hyde Park Village just 10 minute walk away with shops, dining and coffee. Staff super friendly, nice pool area and great amenities. Sad to leave but I will be back.
• vic49 (10/5): Staycation for Steakcation - We have stayed here several times over the years. We came for a one night staycation to enjoy dinner across the street at Berns Steakhouse. We have been going to Berns for over 40 years and as soon as The Epicurean opened it has been our choice to stay with them. The hotel is in the Hyde Park area of Tampa. They hold cooking events and classes in a room off their lobby. They also have win store off the lobby. There is a restaurant and bar on the property has great cocktails. The rooms are always clean and the beds are comfortable. When you check in you are offered a glass of wine which is a nice touch. There is a rooftop bar that opens at 5:00 pm that is pretty popular. The hotel has valet only parking for a reasonable price. It's a great choice when you are in the Tampa area.
• Donna (10/5): - The hotel is great…tons of dining options…if staying ask for a room away from the Selman…can get noisy!
• don656 (10/5): The Epicurean Hotel is Very Special - One of the great joys of travel is finding something special you don’t expect, and the Epicurean Hotel is one of those gems. We love Marriott properties, and this one is delightful. We came to Tampa to have dinner at Bern’s Steak House, and I picked this hotel because it’s across the street. The delights started before we arrived when they upgraded us to a junior suite using a Bonvoy Suite upgrade. I let the hotel know about our special occasion, and they had a bottle of champagne and a plate of hors d’oeuvres waiting in our room. The delights continued with the helpful Tori at check-in, continuing with the beautiful ambiance, and then learning about the artist's reception in the elevator. At the artist reception, we met the manager, Shawn. He hosted an excellent reception with champagne and more hors d’oeuvres, where we met the artist WI Ching Schroeder and the hotel's art coordinator. It was a lovely surprise before our reservation at Bern’s. We are very thankful for a great visit, and I hope you get to visit soon!
• Karen (10/5): Exceptional -
• Mariann (8/5): - Love this property
• Tamid (10/5): - Nice hotel
• Marianna (8/5): Great location, ok hotel - Great location The standard room is pretty basic. Not great value for money.
• Marianna (9/5): Great location- comfortable stay - Great location. We stayed at the new wing which is much nicer than the main hotel.
• ArmyCaptain411 (2/5): Mariott sticks it to the military - I'm in the military and inquired about a long-term (6-month) stay. The management told me I'd have a microwave (didn't have one), and a mini fridge (didn't have one), and that I could self-park but still have to pay the $20 per day valet fee ($3600 for 6 months). So much for "we support the troops." I checked out after 3 days. Avoid this place if you're military ... they simply don't care.

• Z2252NTangelal (10/5): Cheers to a Fabulous Hotel - Wow! Simply put, this hotel is amazing. It is so unique and artsy. There is a wine theme that carries throughout the hotel in little ways in the decor. From wine wallpaper to simple accents in the rooms and hallways, it is all tasteful and fun to browse at. The staff is professional and kind. The restaurants offer unique, delicious dishes and even an amazing view on the rooftop bar. The pool is nice with a decent amount of seating. There is no bar near the pool, which means you have to go through the hotel to the regular restaurant bar. Location wise, this hotel is in a great area. It is safe and has many restaurants, bars, grocery stores, shopping etc. within walking distance. The rooms are spacious, clean and modern. The bathroom and shower are large and luxurious. The room even offers a clothes steamer!
• Andrea (10/5): Exceptional -

• ErikandChris (10/5): Clean & Hip! - Fantastic stay! The hotel staff is very friendly and accomadating. Valet was fast and courteous. Fun hotel, nicely decorated.

If you cant get a reservation, just show up 15 min before open and ask to be seated in the bar/lounge.
