Comfortable, budget-friendly stay near Tampa’s top attractions

Modern and affordable, La Quinta Inn & Suites by Wyndham Tampa-Near Busch Gardens offers a clean, casual vibe that’s ideal for music lovers visiting Tampa. Located just across the street from Busch Gardens and a quick 20-minute drive to Ybor City’s entertainment scene, it’s a great base for catching a show and exploring the city.

Why Concert-goers love it

The hotel’s location makes it convenient for concerts at nearby venues like the MIDFLORIDA Credit Union Amphitheatre or downtown Tampa clubs. While it's not in the heart of the nightlife, it offers a peaceful place to crash after a loud, high-energy night. With free WiFi, a flexible 3 PM check-in, and a quiet setting away from the downtown bustle, it’s a solid choice for fans who want both fun and rest.

Who this Hotel is great for

- Groups of friends looking for value and convenience
- Solo travelers attending a must-see show
- Couples planning a weekend music getaway
- Fans needing a quieter spot to recover after the encore
- Budget-conscious music lovers wanting perks without the price tag

Food and Drink Options

While there’s no restaurant on-site, complimentary breakfast is a big win, especially after a late night. Select rooms with microwaves and mini-fridges make it easy to reheat leftovers or stash drinks. Plus, there are plenty of casual dining spots and late-night fast food options just a short drive or rideshare away.

Nightlife Options

You won’t find live music or a bar in the hotel, but you’re a quick drive from the lively Ybor City district, known for its music venues, clubs, and dive bars. Perfect for pre-show drinks or a post-concert wind-down.

What People Say

Guests on Booking.com and TripAdvisor love the location near Busch Gardens and appreciate the free breakfast and clean rooms. Many mention it’s a solid budget option for travelers who want convenient access to Tampa attractions without paying downtown prices.

Areas for Improvement

Some guests have mentioned that the hotel feels a little dated and that the surrounding area isn’t the most walkable late at night. But if you’re using rideshare or driving, it’s not a dealbreaker. Just don’t expect luxury finishes—this place is all about value and location.

La Quinta Inn & Suites by Wyndham Tampa-Near Busch Gardens is a smart, affordable pick for concert-goers who want an easy, comfortable stay near the action without breaking the bank.

Terrible

Liked: Not a good place to stay! Rooms were not clean, our roof was leaking in our bathroom and bed bugs were found in our bed the last day. We were told we would only get a $100 discount but we have yet to even receive that. Contact high everywhere we went from all the marijuana being smoked by other guest. Not family friendly.

Poor - 1.5 out of 5

Christopher Mon, 28 April 2025

The condition of the hotel...

Liked: The staff was nice, the rooms were clean, the beds were made each day.
Disliked: The facilities were poor, the door to the room was not sealed against the door frame, light would shine through between the door and the frame. the outside could be heard as if the door/window was open. The floor boards were warped in spots, and/or very poorly installed. The AC unit was extremely loud. The tables at the pool were very dirty, apparently never cleaned, and the pool area did not have adequate chairs for people using the pool. The cost per night is ridiculous for what you get. $190 per night for a well cleaned, but poorly maintained/built hotel is way too much money.
