With my wife we spent one night only. The room was clean, silent with a comfy mattress. The professional receptionist welcomed us with a big smile properly explaining all the things we needed to know, providing us with a map of Tampa too. The riverwalk next to the hotel is amazing, was relaxing to have a walk after dinner joining other people and a little bit fresh air as well. In 10/12 minutes by foot in the Ashley street you can reach Downtown train last stop number 11 and take the old fashioned free train to Ybor city. We recommend to get off at the train stop number 2 and go to the seventh street, it's plenty of shops, restaurants and artigianal cigars' shop. This street seems a little bit New Orleans with Cuba's atmosphere. Thank you again and hope to see you soon. Walter and Marianna

The location of the Barrymore was good for us. It is by the Riverwalk and within walking distance of everything we wanted to explore. The staff was very helpful and friendly. One big plus was the availability of the hotel shuttle that took us to several places during our stay. One of them was Ybor historic neighborhood and Sparkman Wharf, among other places.

I think that the pool area could be improved. For example, my wife mentioned to me that there were no bathrooms near the pool--unless it was there and she missed it.

Easy check in and friendly staff. Good pizza in the restaurant eventhough we came very late in the evening. I bought a tasty large yoghurt (fruit parfait) for breakfast in the restaurant and the coffe was free. Good location close to the riverwalk. Very little service in the near surroundings, but not too far to walk to a number of bars and restaurants.

Horrible old wall to wall carpets in the rooms and corridors. We got the perception that it smelled. Remove them and replace with wood floor. The yellow color (we stayed on floor 9) is not pleasant.

The hotel was easy to find from the interstate. Nice area out front to park up and get checked in. Staff were very helpful and professional. Parking is easy at the side of the hotel. Hotel was comfortable and clean and I really enjoyed the stay. The hotel is in a good position for a short walk into Downtown Tampa or along the Riverside Walk. Didn't use the pool so can't comment on that. Breakfast was tasty and the Mango Wheat Beer in the bar before sleep was a pleasant first.

Nothing I didn't like - maybe I,m just easy to please. Even the trolley bus to Ybor City was free.

The location and room was awesome. I had a wonderful view of the Riverwalk.

The hot water was not working well at all. There were roaches at night.

We enjoyed being downtown in Tampa and still having the peace of being in a quiet neighborhood. It was nice to be able to access our car whenever we wanted not waiting for valet or paying prices of valet. Convenient to the Riverwalk which was a plus. Also, liked that there are college students there so place is busy which is reassuring for safety too.

Housekeeping. We were asked at check in if we wanted daily or no housekeeping. We opted for daily but we did leave the do not disturb sign on when we didnt feel the need for it. However, the days it was left off, no one had come and when we inquired we were told we weren't on the list. The front desk was so helpful and understanding and it was a simple misunderstanding. They immediately took care of it and our room was spotless.

10min walking distance to downtown area, hotel provides free shuttle drop off and pick up within downtown/ybor area. Right across the riverside walk. Staff was very friendly, helpful with packages.

It is in a good location, within walking distance to events happening and the public marketplace building. Although some reviews said the water in the shower wasn't hot, we found it to be quite comfortable. Also appreciated that there were washers and dryers available to use. Parking was reasonably priced.

Didn't love the bathroom. There was very little counter space around the large updated sink. The shower had no shelf or anywhere to put toiletries, razor, or wash cloth. The housekeeping was unpredictable as far as leaving enough towels, and the last day of our stay didn't even wipe around the sink.

Wonderful riverside location downtown, with easy walkable access to most of downstoen, especially the artistic riverside quarter and the Armature Centre. Good-sized comfortable room, with excellent black-out curtains. Most staff cheerful. Loved the shuttle bus although it is often out with other guests at peak ti.es so it is difficult to plan on using it.

Matter of taste, but for us there have been some.bad decoration choices, with yellows and browns pervasive! It would be good to have parking reserved just for the hotel - it seemed like the space was also used by non-guests. Small thing but lack of shower shelf was inconvenient.

Our room was clean and the beds were very comfortable. Although the building itself is quite old and some decor was dated, it appeared and smelled clean. We were on the eighth floor overlooking the river and Riverwalk which was a great view. All our activities the night we stayed there were in walking distance of the Barrymore and downtown Tampa is very walkable - except where there was construction which was sprinkled about the area. Not a big deal.

There was no information offered when checking in about guest services, nor was there any information in the room about services available. For instance, what are the food delivery service options, room service, where can we find the hotel ice bin, local TV channels, shuttle services, etc. The TV options were very limited which I thought strange for an 'upscale' hotel. The shower stalls were small but the water was hot which was really nice once we got it adjusted to suit.
