Home2 Suites by Hilton Tampa USF Near Busch Gardens

10/10 Excellent

"Clean room, excellent staff, delish breakfast. Right next to USF campus. Absolutely will stay there again!"

Hyatt Place Busch Gardens

8/10 Good

"Great hotel. The staff are fantastic!!! The nicest people ever. I would go stay there again just to have the same front desk people host me again. The elevator sucked. There are 2 in total. One of them is out of order for construction (apparently I hear it's been like that for a year). And the other elevator is moved like it is 100 years old (one time the doors didnt even open until I hit the button for them to open). I expected better from a Hyatt."

La Quinta Inn by Wyndham Tampa Near Busch Gardens

10/10 Excellent

"Perfect hotel to stay, staff room, breakfast area was all worth the stay. Will need to brush up on my Spanish but thank God for my Apple phone translation. You could literally walk to Bush Garden from where we stayed. Planning my next vacation for October 2927, perfect place to stay. The only issue is, they charged a deposit for each room on the same reservation! That wasn’t cool. I understand a deposit for a reservation but for each room on the same reservation. Hope you all consider how you inquire about the deposit when booking multiple rooms at once."

La Quinta Inn & Suites by Wyndham USF (Near Busch Gardens)

8/10 Good

"Good stay for the$$. I stay in this area 4-5 days at a time 4 times a year. I normally stay across the street, where the price is $100.00 more a night. The breakfast, and other amenities, are not up to the Embassy Suites level, but it was very comfortable. There was a lot of foot traffic in the back parking lot. While feeding the feral cats, I found a hole cut out of the fence that the homeless seem to use, but I had nothing damaged, or stolen. The rooms are being remodeled."
