Overview
by Terry Ward
Less than 10 miles from the Tampa International Airport and within walking distance of all of the downtown Tampa highlights — including Curtis Hixon Waterfront Park – the Barrymore Hotel is a cool little spot along the Hillsborough River. Cruise passengers love the location, too, as the hotel is just 2 miles from the port. The hotel has king suites and double rooms to accommodate families, and pets are welcome here, too. The onsite restaurant, fitness center and laundry services add to your vacationing ease. Take a break in the outdoor pool. And take advantage of the hotel’s shuttle service for complimentary rides within a 2-mile radius. In the immediate area are museums, parks and lots of restaurants and bars. It’s about 40 minutes to Clearwater Beach and about 15 minutes to Tampa’s excellent zoo and Busch Gardens.

PLEASE PLEASE DO NOT STAY AT THIS HOTEL!!!! The manager knows that cars are being broken into, hit and plus scratch while staying at this hotel and he or she doesn’t do anything about it but make you pay for parking!!! The carpet smells horrible in the rooms they need to rebuild this hotel including management!!!! I’m advising everyone now!!!!

This hotel is not a fancy hotel but was very clean for a one night stay. We were greeted by wonderful staff. Octavia is wonderful and very helpful. The breakfast was very good and the food was tasty. I'm not sure what all the negative reviews are about because they cater to your every need. My sister Brie and enjoyed our one night before we headed to Carnival for our cruise. PS, they dropped us off which was really nice as well.
