Top Sarasota Hotel Reviews

Lantern Inn & Suites

10/10 Excellent

"I’ve stayed here on multiple occasions. The rooms are excellent and have small kitchenettes. It is a convenient location as well."

Aloft by Marriott Sarasota

8/10 Good

"The staff and location of the hotel is great as well as the courtyard, pool and lobby bar area. The rooms seemed to be done by Ikea as the style is stark with not one comfortable place to sit and relax. The chair is hard plastic and there's a bench which is obviously just for show because it's also uncomfortable. The bed is okay but not for more than a couple nights. The bathroom tissue and toilet paper are the same quality uou would find in a gas station and certainly not Marriott standards. The valet parking is convenient and fast."

Siesta Key Palms Resort

10/10 Excellent

"The resort is so cute! I love the waterfall feature outside the door. It's very quiet and the staff is super friendly. They have great amenities, jenga, and the porch swings. Didn't get a chance to use the pool but looked very clean. The room is cute and has good air conditioning. Can't wait to go back!"

Hyatt Place Sarasota/Bradenton Airport

10/10 Excellent

"I had an excellent stay and would absolutely stay here again! Even though the hotel was under construction during my visit, it did not take away from the overall experience. The staff was incredibly friendly, attentive, and always willing to help with anything I needed. They made me feel welcomed from check-in to check-out. My room was clean and comfortable, and the breakfast was a great way to start the day. I really appreciated how hard the staff worked to ensure guests still had a pleasant experience despite the renovations. I look forward to coming back once the construction is complete!"

Spark by Hilton Sarasota Siesta Key Gateway

8/10 Good

"Positives: Central location to restaurants. Easy access to Siest Key (just 7 minutes). I enjoyed having a continental breakfast available daily. The pool was very clean and seemed tobe well maintained. Having food available on premises was great! Front desk staff was in constant communication and took care of our special requests of a quiet room, extra pollows. Pets allowed (although I did not bring mine on this trip). Overall a good price range. Not so much: The air conditioner was way too loud. It was constantly turing on and off. The finishes in the room (wall by the ironing board seemed to be unfinished) I am sure is not Hilton standard. The bed was lumpy. The vending and ice machine on the 4th floor had been removed. The shower water temperature would change and get very hot in the middle of showering. The room did not have enough storage (no drawers and not enough hangers-only 6)"
