Top University of South Florida Botanical Gardens Hotel Reviews

Hampton Inn & Suites Tampa Busch Gardens Area

10/10 Excellent

"We're locals from St. Petersburg, and we stay here every year for Howl-O-Scream so we don't have to worry about the drive, or about all the other drivers on the road late at night. Year after year, we've had a great experience. The staff is amazing and so friendly, and the hotel is clean and so convenient to Busch Gardens. The shuttle drops us off right at the gates, and after a night of spooky fun, we just grab a quick Uber back. Great place for a staycation!"
