The Spotlight on The Tampa Edition

Luxury Meets Live Music in the Heart of Tampa

Just a 2-minute walk from top concert spots like Amalie Arena, this hotel offers sleek design, high-end comfort, and thoughtful amenities tailored for travelers who want both style and substance.
The vibe? Sophisticated yet welcoming, with lush garden spaces, a rooftop pool, and a chic bar that sets the perfect tone for pre- and post-show hangouts.

Why Concert-goers love it

You couldn’t be closer to the action—Amalie Arena is practically next door, making it an ideal base for catching big-name acts without the traffic stress. Late-night arrivals are easy with 24-hour reception, and staff fluent in multiple languages are ready to help. While you're centrally located, the rooms are well-insulated, offering a peaceful retreat after a high-energy night out.

Who this Hotel is great for

  • Groups of friends looking for a stylish place to splash out
  • Solo travelers catching a once-in-a-lifetime show
  • Couples turning a concert into a romantic weekend
  • Fans who want quiet luxury after the encore
  • Budget-conscious music lovers—if you're ready to splurge a little for location and vibe

Food and Drink Options

The on-site restaurant serves up a creative mix of Greek, Italian, and Mediterranean cuisine, with vegetarian, vegan, and dairy-free options available. There's also a stylish hotel bar for a pre-show cocktail or post-gig nightcap. While 24/7 room service isn't officially listed, the staff’s attentiveness offers flexible dining support. Start your day late with a leisurely American breakfast—perfect after a night of music.

Nightlife Options

Whether you're warming up for the main event or keeping the party going, The Tampa Edition has your night sorted. Enjoy cocktails at the hotel’s elegant bar or take a short walk to buzzing clubs and lounges in the downtown area. Tampa’s waterfront nightlife is right at your doorstep.

What People Say

Guests rave about the gorgeous design, attentive staff, and unbeatable location. The rooftop pool and terrace are often cited as highlights, especially for a relaxing wind-down after concerts. Many love the modern rooms and city views, and say the hotel feels like a “mini oasis” in the city.

Areas for Improvement

Some guests note that parking is pricey, and rooms on lower floors may not offer the best views. Also, while the luxury vibe is undeniable, it may be a bit of a splurge for more budget-minded travelers.

The Bottom Line

With its unbeatable location, top-tier amenities, and relaxing post-concert atmosphere, The Tampa Edition is the perfect pick for music fans who want to stay close to the stage in serious style.

It was nice. Very close...

Liked: Staff was very good. Property was clean and well appointed.
Disliked: My dining voucher was not applied to my bill. I dined in one of the hotel dining rooms but the $50 credit was not applied. The hotel has not responded to my request to have this corrected.

Very good

Liked: Comfortable & luxurious. Friendly and professional staff (for the most part).
Disliked: I was completely ignored at the lobby bar. Granted, it was busy after the concert, but nonetheless, I felt i was just being ignored. For the price of the night to stay, I would at least expect a "hello, I'll be with you in a moment". Rude.

Beautiful lobby, nice Italian restaurant,...

Disliked: Location: difficult (impossible)to get to the front door valet parking. Estimated bill at the time of arrival was twice the amount I agreed upon. the final bill was correct. I got a reservation from the restaurant called lilac for a Sunday meal at 6:30 PM, only to discover the restaurant was closed on Sundays. A real bummer for a 1 star Michelin restaurant.
