TownePlace Suites by Marriott Tampa South

Comfort Meets Convenience Near Tampa's Top Music Venues

Modern and relaxed, TownePlace Suites by Marriott Tampa South offers a comfortable home base just minutes from Tampa’s biggest concert stages. Located about 5 miles from both Amalie Arena and Raymond James Stadium, this all-suite hotel has a laid-back vibe with the perks of home—perfect for unwinding after a loud night out. With full kitchens in select rooms, an outdoor pool, and a well-equipped fitness center, it's designed for longer stays and late nights.

Why Concert-goers love it

You’ll love the easy access to major venues—no need to rush post-show. Whether you're catching a gig at Amalie Arena or heading to 1-800-ASK-GARY Amphitheatre, you're within a short drive. The hotel's quiet residential location offers a peaceful contrast to the high energy of a live show. With a 3:00 PM check-in and 11:00 AM check-out, there’s enough wiggle room to rest up. On-site parking also makes rideshare pickups or self-driving a breeze.

Who this Hotel is great for

• Groups of friends road-tripping for a band tour
• Solo travelers chasing a bucket-list performance
• Couples turning a concert into a weekend getaway
• Fans who want a quieter, homier place to recharge
• Budget-conscious music lovers looking for value without sacrificing comfort

Food and Drink Options

While there’s no on-site restaurant, the hotel’s in-room kitchens make late-night snacking super easy. There are also plenty of casual dining spots and fast food options within a short walk or drive. Morning-after recovery is made easier thanks to the hotel’s free breakfast—a big win if you were up dancing all night.

Nightlife Options

Though the hotel doesn’t have a bar or live music on-site, you’re just a short ride from South Tampa’s buzzing bar scene and cool lounges. Prefer to wind down? The relaxed, residential setting makes it feel more like a cozy retreat than a party pad.

What People Say

Guests love the clean, spacious suites and say it feels more like an apartment than a hotel. Many praise the friendly staff and the convenience of having a kitchen. The quiet location is a recurring highlight, especially after a concert-filled evening. Travelers also appreciated the easy access to the airport and major highways.

Areas for Improvement

Some guests mentioned that the neighborhood dining options are limited, so plan ahead if you’re looking for a post-show feast. Also, while the hotel is close to venues, you’ll still need to drive or rideshare—there’s not much within walking distance.

The Bottom Line

TownePlace Suites by Marriott Tampa South is a smart, low-key choice for concert-goers who want a quiet, comfortable place to crash—without being far from the action.
