I am rather disappointed to find that there was no note pad,pen or pencil in the room.had to ask for slippers . Food in the hotel dining room was below par to what is expected of 4 stat hotel.Fresh tomato soup tasted like as if it came straight out of can and warmed up.There was no warm milk to go with cereals in the breakfast lounge.

We had our 10yr anniversary party for our company. Everything was beautiful. You could walk to a gazebo over the water. There were walking trails. The rooms were very nice. My view was the Tampa, FL airport which for me was nice. I like watching the planes come in, however, it did not disturb my sleeping. I would say the breakfast was better than dinner. I am assuming our company picked what we had. Overall, it was a very pleasant time. Read less

Be careful walking or driving from the garage to the main building. You may get run over by one of the drivers. Be also careful when walking the grounds of the hotel. Not the most friendly experience.

My family stayed at Grand Hyatt Tampa Bay for 1 night just before Thanksgiving 2023. We had a car so the location of the hotel not being downtown was not an issue. It was a convenient drive to any place in Tampa and in Clearwater. The room featured expansive view of the bay. The airport being right next to the hotel was not a bother at all as the windows were very soundproofing. Hotel was clean, room amenities were as expected of a city Grand Hyatt. We had the buffet and a la carte breakfast and the options were plenty. This is a hotel worth returning to. Read less
