Afar Magazine "Relax and restore after a long day at our waterfront island refuge in the heart of downtown Tampa and overlooking the sparkling harbor." Full review
Star Service "Not to be confused with the less engaging Westin Tampa Bay, this local giant, three blocks from the arena and Florida Aquarium, provides all the requisites Westin regulars expect." Full review
