The DoubleTree Guest Suites Tampa Bay is an all-suites hotel that despite having some age on it has undergone a nice renovation. It is located on West Highway 60 near the airport. Unfortunately, not much else is located near the property.

Each suite is spacious, very clean and having undergone a recent, very nice renovation. The only complaint I had was the smallish bathrooms that despite the renovation were not that great. Overall, a nice hotel for a decent price. The location, while being away from the hustle and bustle of Tampa traffic, is good if you want to get away and rest. That being said, there is not much around this area so expect to travel 10-15 minutes say if you need to go to a Walgreen's, etc.

As previous reviewers have mentioned, The Castaway restaurant located across W. 60 from the DoubleTree is a nice place to eat. The views are spectacular, the food is pricey but ok.

One evening I ordered room service from the downstairs restaurant The Galerie and it was surprisingly good. It arrived fast, the server was efficient and it was much better than some.

I cannot comment on the breakfast as I never partook. I didn't have many dealings with the staff but they seemed efficient and friendly. Overall this DoubleTree is in a great location, with a recent renovation, clean with nice views. For the price not a bad value. I would stay there again

The rooms in this motel are outstanding, very large and well appointed. Our room on the seventh floor had a refrigerator, sink and microwave. Very large living area separated from the bedroom by a folding door.

The bedroom was also very large, with a king bed and very comfortable matress and pillows. Also, many rooms have a nice view of the bay. The pool area is small but well kept. We did not use the restaurant. We treated ourselves to Bern's Steakhouse (wonderful) about seven miles away near downtown.

We saved the cookies and made some excellent in-room coffee and tea for a quick breakfast. (We were still stuffed from Bern's).

There is a lot of construction on SR 60 near the airport, so pay attention if you are entering from I-4. Keep left through the construction.

Nice hotel with spacious rooms right on Tampa Bay. About a 25 minute drive to Clearwater Beach.

Breakfast buffet is ok, but nothing great. Try to get it with your room rate, individual prices for the buffet are too high for the quality of food.

Pool is nice, and right on the bay. Jet ski rental right outside by the parking lot. The Castaway restaurant is across the street, pricey but awesome tables with views of the bay at sunset.

Tampa Bay Doubletree Suites Rocky Point Dr, Tampa
July 16,2007

My husband and I wanted to get away for a few days. The Doubletree Suites on Rocky Pt. Dr. was great!. The hotel is just completing renovations. We stayed in room 731 (highest floor) and had a brand new 2 room suite (all rooms are suites) with incredible views. We looked out over the water and the pool area below. We watched dolphins and tropical birds from our livingroom and bedroom areas.
Entire suite had new berber style carpets, fresh paint, new curtains, livingroom furniture and dream beds and linens (you will wish you could take the bed home!) There was a small refrigerator, sink and micorwave set on a marble top cabinet in the livingroom area. There was a large work station with special comfort work chair and two tvs. The room was done in browns and creams with touches of red.

Bathroom was very clean .Tub area had new tiles but tub looked a little worn. Great Neutrogena products including face cleaner and sun screen. Big fluffy towels.

Pool feels very secluded and is surrounded by bay views. You can lay in hammocks and watch dolphins jump. Pool water was perfect temp and pool seemed very clean and well maintained.

You are very close to Tampa Airport but you never hear planes from hotel.

I would recommend this hotel to anyone staying in Tampa Bay!
