Westin Tampa Harbour Island

Westin Tampa Harbour Island

1 mile from Port of Tampa, Less than 1 mile to Tampa Convention Center

On an island just south of downtown, with an outdoor pool and great water views, the Westin Tampa Harbour Island feels secluded, yet is close to all of the city’s most popular destinations. The 12-story hotel, with a lovely terra cotta façade, has the feel of a resort. The palm-shaded outdoor pool, with its own views of the harbor, has crisp umbrellas that call to mind a Caribbean destination. Even the fitness room, stocked with cardio machines, overlooks the water. The chic lobby, with its low-slung furnishings and rich, wood accents, makes you want to linger over quiet conversation. The 299 non-smoking rooms have some stunning views, especially those that gaze west toward the sunset. Beds are extra-soft, as you’d expect from the Westin, and are covered in luxe linens. Flat-panel TVs with instant-access movies are there when you want to kick back, and Wi-Fi connections let you brag about your accommodations to the folks back home. If you have to get some work done, there’s a large desk with ample lighting and a back-saving ergonomic chair. Parking is available for an additional fee. The Tampa Convention Center being a stone’s throw from the front door makes this a convenient location for business travelers. The Florida Aquarium, a favorite with families, is less than a mile away, and even closer is the St. Pete Times Forum, the home of the Tampa Bay Lightning hockey team and a popular concert venue. Tampa International Airport, the city’s main gateway, is seven miles northwest. With a get-away-from-it-all feel, the Westin Tampa Harbour Island is the place to relax. Guests love the quiet location, professional staff and very reasonable rates.
