The staff (especially Pam!) were wonderful. Room was clean. There is traffic noise, but watching the fireworks from BG out our window more than made up for it. Unfortunately, they just changed the shuttle schedule from daily to only on the weekend. One of our stays was during the week, so we missed out. The next part of our stay was a Sunday, so we had great service on the shuttle. Only downside for this trip was we had paid for the largest suite that accommodates a cot. I was assured prior to check-in and at check-in it was ready for us. When we got to the room, no cot. We were told somebody must have put the cot in a smaller room, which they aren't supposed to do, which meant they didn't have one for us. We had a couch, so it was a huge issue. We just prefer a cot, and had paid extra for the room that accommodates this.

Staff (especially Pam!) were wonderful. Clean and great breakfast. Only downside was the shuttle schedule to bush gardens just changed from daily to only on the weekend. The shuttle is a big reason why we had picked to return to this hotel. (and do every year) I'm hoping the owner reconsiders this change. (please!) Grateful for a smooth stay overall, and a wonderful team there.

This is the ideal place to stay when visiting Busch's Gardens. Hotel is clean and just renovated. Breakfast is great. There is a shuttle to Busch Gardens to and fro. It saves you paying $40 for parking.

We had the Hampton Inn booked for one night after our cruise so we could go to Busch Gardens. We arrived at around 8:30 and knew it was too early to check in but just inquired about parking the car in the lot until we could check in later. The staff at the front were so friendly. Told us to come in and eat and have coffee. Also told us about their complimentary shuttle to the park and put us on the list to ensure we had a spot on it. We sat down and had something and some coffee and shortly there after we were told “hey we have a room for you guys now we can go ahead and check you in.” This was around 915. That was freaking awesome as we were able to get our bags and get our room set up before we even went to the park. Why we never stayed here before coming to Tampa I don’t know, but we will in the future. Super clean, great staff and a nice breakfast is provided and right across from Busch Gardens.

Short fused stay when visiting Busch Gardens Theme Park. We had a great view of the drone and fireworks show from our room. There were 5 in our group and we slept comfortably. Room was very comfortable and spacious. Utilized the check-in process on the Hilton Honors app. Slight glitch when trying to gain access to the elevator and room utilizing the digital room key. For some reason, when holding the phone to the lock, it prompts usage of Apple Pay.
