We were there to go to a Tampa Bay Rowdies game, so the hotel location was perfect for that.
Was surprised by the $45 valet parking fee. No indication that self parking was available. Also was not able to obtain a luggage cart without the use of a bell hop, which means needing to tip, but the hotel is cashless, so couldn't get any smaller bills for a $20 bill.

Once in our room the mini-fridge didn't work. No one at the front desk answers the phone. All room needs are communicated via text messages.

I will not being returning, I will warn everyone of my peers who visits st pete to steer clear, and I will be filing a claim on this charge because there is NO REASON I should even accused of smoking.

Beware of booking through Hotels.com because the pictures advertising this property (particularly the beautiful beach front) are in a completely different place. There is no beach here. It is on a main road and had a view of a roof and the back door of a stadium. The children were really disappointed and so was I. The bell staff were great, the pool area was nice enough but the management at the hotel were completely apathetic about their property being incorrectly depicted on the app. If I had wanted a city stay on downtown ast Pete’s this would have been fine but I chose based on the beachfront views. Waste of money

Be Advised this Hilton is cashless, and there is no parking. You are downtown and can park in parking garage several within blocks of hotel, OR ... have valet park your car for $45 a day. Neither were described previously. Also know ... there are no ice machines accessible. Must get small bag of ice from way overpriced little 'market' next to front desk. 20 ounce bottled water = $5.98
Front desk understaffed & usually takes minimum 30 minute wait.
Have to track down valet for assistance or to get a cart. Front Desk personal tell you outside valet has to get cart & take you and your things up to your room. And outside valets tell you Front desk has to get someone to get a cart & help you take your things up to your room. And will argue with you as you go running back & forth. So you can take your stuff up to your room. And when it's time to check out, you have to beg for a cart to bring personal belongings down. While being questioned about how long would check out take (they were asking me). And how long until cart will be returned. Then questioned if outside valet had been advised so that car can be brought around, so cart can be returned promptly. Mind you, this is before cart was even brought out. Interesting interrogation to use a cart/get assistance.
There were alot of seemly unHilton like experiences. That started before check in.
Also, room a/c made water gurgling sound ...

I liked the appearance on the inside of the lobby. It’s was very nice and appealing. However, the things that bothered me most were: lack of parking availability, valet parking fees, and my room needed much repairs/work. There was a hole at the bottom of the bathroom the door and it looks dirty. The toilet has rust inside the bowl. The shower/tub water wouldn’t drain the water timely, like it was clogged. And parts of the carpet when you walked on it had dips, like the carpet was replaced over damage to the floor and it wasn’t repaired before putting down the carpet. The employee that checked me out was nice, but checking not so much. The room was definitely not what I was expecting to for a Hilton hotel, perhaps the valet pricing, but not condition of the room.

This was the worst Hilton stay I’ve ever had. I do not recommend this location. We had to move rooms three times because they had not been cleaned. There was a stain on the bed sheets, hair in the shower, food stains in the refrigerator and mold in the shower as well. The manager for this location refused to speak with us for hours and was dismissive when we spoke to her. The staff did not use cleaning supplies at all when we saw them clean our room after having to ask for it to be cleaned. We had to sleep in the car the first time. I’ve never had this issue with Hilton, but I would not recommend the St. Petersburg Bayfront location.

First off the valet per night is super high and unreasonable… then the elevators smell of urine the whole time we stayed there which only 2 worked the 3rd did not and made wait times very long sometimes. Our bathroom had a leaking toilet and the shower water barely got hot so don’t plan on many hot showers I guess.. no water or ice machine only the $10/$12 bottles at the front honestly it was just the area that was good and it was decently clean. Wouldn’t book again I’m not sure if that’s just the area of town or what but not the standard I’m used to for the price I’ve had to pay.

While the staff was kind and helpful, the property was run down and unkept. Our room had mold on the ceiling in the bathroom, and the sink did not drain properly. The room was quite banged up - from picture frames, to corners of furniture and marks on the walls.
Valet was unorganized with long wait times, even when requesting the car in advance from their texting service.
Additionally, only one elevator was working - leading the long waits amongst others in the hotel.
Again, staff were exceptionally nice, but the overall condition of the property was unacceptable.

I rarely leave negative reviews, but my experience at this hotel was extremely disappointing. The biggest issue was the complete lack of adequate parking. Finding a place to park was stressful and inconvenient, especially after a long day of traveling. A hotel should provide enough parking for its guests, and this one clearly failed to do so.
On top of that, many areas of the property were in very poor condition. The hallways, common areas, and parts of the facilities looked old, neglected, and in desperate need of maintenance. The overall appearance gave the impression that the hotel has not been properly cared for in a long time.
What made the experience even worse was the unpleasant smell throughout several parts of the building. The odor was noticeable in the hallways and other common areas, making it uncomfortable to walk around or even relax. Cleanliness and maintenance should be basic priorities for any hotel, but unfortunately that was not the case here.
For the price I paid, I expected a much better experience. I don’t mind staying at a simple hotel, but I do expect a clean, well-maintained environment with enough parking for guests. Sadly, this hotel did not meet those basic expectations. Unless significant improvements are made to the facilities, cleanliness, and parking situation, I cannot recommend staying here. I hope management takes these concerns seriously and invests in improving the property because it has a lot of potential, but in its current condition, I

On site parking is valet ONLY and charged per day. Retrieving your car can be slow, so definitely request at least 10 min before you actually need to leave.

The pool is small given the size of the property. There is a swim beach nearby, but not within waking distance if you've got small kids.

The area around the hotel is lovely & there's a grocery across the street if you need anything. On-site convenience shop is expensive ($7 for a regular size candy bar). Many of the restaurants in this area are on the pricier side, so if you have a tighter budget and a car, suggest driving a few miles to eat.

I had pretty high expectations about this hotel but it failed me greatly. Be prepared to pay $50+ per night for valet parking or you can look for parking on the street and carry your luggage around as well as $27 per person for buffet style breakfast.
Rooms smell mildewy and have mold in the bathroom. Very outdated but change an arm and the leg for everything even one pure life Nestle water is $3 . Come on Hilton.

When issue brought to staff they kindly dismissed all my complaints and said those are their “ Hilton standards”

We later found several microwaves on the first floor. At checkout, the valet fee was put on one credit card after we specifically requested wanting to pay the valet on a separate card when we checked in. The elevators stopped working and we had to use the stairs, including my elderly mother, which was very difficult for her. We definitely won’t be staying at this location again.

This Hilton offers what you’d expect-comfortable beds, attractive pool, and professional staff.

I would have appreciated knowing up front that the hotel charges $45 a day for Valet parking. You cannot park on the property unless you agree to the valet service. Hilton assured me that the valet company is not associated with them. Unfortunately I had a bad experience with the valet company.

In addition, I had numerous issues with my room (air conditioning, plumbing).

I enjoyed the stay overall and since we were there to spend little time in the hotel, and on a budget, it fit the needs of our trip. The hotel room was not well cleaned, specifically the bathroom. There was hard water stains on every chrome surface, toliet paper holder falling out the wall from years of usage, flush was very loud and would wake any family member sleeping. The walls of the hotel were also very dated, windows were unclean. It was not a hotel I was excited to take photos of, which normally I do and share with friends and family. The breakfast was ok, I think over priced for the buffet, with limited selection. I asked several different staff members days prior what was served for breakfast, including a supervisor, who did not know. I eventually went to the restaurant in the morning to get a menu. I'd have planned breakfast a little differently had I had an idea of their selections earlier. The pool area was nice. The bathrooms by the pool were incredibly hot. The elevator broke the last day, thankfully it did not impact our trip. The valet staff and bar tenders were very friendly. For where this location is, I expected a little more but nontheless not the worst experience, it was okay for the time and the price. I hope this place gets the update it deserves in the future.
