"So, who's your favorite Bond? Daniel Craig? Pierce Brosnan? Connery, probably the best. Probably not Roger Moore, although he did a decent job. The song from one of his films, is the point here. Nobody does it Better, well, at least as Tampa hotels go. The Epicurean remains as the best of the hotels in Tampa. Have not stayed in any of the downtown hotels but feel free to spend a large amount at one of those places. But here, it's like putting on that favorite pair of jeans. Comfortable, fits just right. The front desk crew, pleasant and courteous as always. Ever helpful. And who offers a glass of wine at check-in? No place I know of. The rooms, comfortable, quiet. All you need. Still amusing, the amount and variety of alcohol options in the in room bar. Certainly cannot call it a mini bar. Not with these size bottles available. Adds to the unique character of this hotel. A blissful shower. And the quality of the restaurant food remains excellent. Location, food, room. All the best. Except for the parking, remains valet only. Ah, well. Maybe your favorite Bond movie is You Only Live Twice. But make sure those two lives include stays here."

"We stayed here to celebrate our first anniversary and also had dinner across the street at Bern’s. Both were exemplary. We were given a really gorgeous suite. The in-room amenities are fantastic including pre-mixed cocktails, wine and beer. The bathroom was as big as some hotel rooms and included separate large soaking tub and shower stall. The staff were great too. Highly recommended!"

"Super hotel in all areas. Boutique style modern hotel that’s just a few years old. Has a food and beverage theme throughout. Rooms are very very nice, clean, fresh and enjoyable to experience. There’s a safe in the room, fridge, drinks and snacks. We had a junior suite and it had a large sofa bed, microwave, and delightful bathroom. I’d stay here again every time I’m in Tampa! If you’re headed for dinner to Berns, it’s literally across the street. Hotels parking is valet only at $25 night."

"Great location for one of the finest resturants in Florida/US. Very friendly and a happening hotel. I would ask for additional pillows. Bikes for the 1st hr are compliementary. The team was very friendly."
