The rooms were decent, clean, bed was comfy and the balcony was excellent. We were there for most of the afternoon and evening waiting on the rest of... More

I was forced to stay here when my flight was cancelled out of Tampa. Arriving late at night, tired and a long way from home, the friendliness of the night staff and the quality of my room were a very pleasant surprise. Sicne the Airline was paying for the room, I expected much less. The room was clean and well... More

Our room faced the Bay with tiki huts and pool views, you could see the dolphins swimming by and music playing in the air from the bar area it was great. The service was awesome and the rooms super clean. The hotel is surrounded by Resturant and 20 minutes to Clearwater Beach. We would definitely stay their again.

I spent a couple of nights here on a business trip. The staff were all very capable and helpful, the bed was very comfortable but the place felt a little shabby and in need of a makeover.

We are BW Gold members and were extremely disappointed in this hotel. The outside looked fairly decent as does the lobby. That's where it stops. The halls are musty smelling and the rooms are well-used and not too clean. if you have asthma or other allegories -- AVOID THIS HOTEL AT ALL COSTS. I had to use my inhaler several... More

The Best Western Bay Harbor in Tampa was wonderful. I would strongly recommend that you get a "bay side" room. I booked a city view but upon arrival realized that this just would not due. The front desk was nice enough to upgrade me at no additional cost. Kudos to the Best Western Bay Harbor....I will definitely stay there again.... More
