Is the Epicurean Hotel a good choice before or after a cruise?

Yes. It's actually one of its biggest strengths. Its proximity to the port, calm setting, quality service and comfortable rooms make it an excellent buffer-night option before or after a cruise departing from Tampa.

What type of traveller is the Epicurean Hotel best suited for?

The hotel is particularly well suited for travellers looking for a characterful urban hotel, a food-and-wine focused atmosphere, or a comfortable, high-quality short stay. It's not a family resort, but rather an elegant, refined address.

Is this hotel suited for a multi-night stay in Tampa?

Yes, provided you're looking for a calm, quality urban experience. The Epicurean Hotel works very well for 2 to 4 nights, especially to enjoy the local food scene, the pool and a relaxed pace, rather than a beach or family-style stay.

Does the hotel have a pool?

Yes. The Epicurean Hotel features a beautiful heated outdoor pool, well exposed to the sun, with comfortable loungers and a calm atmosphere. Yoga classes are offered on Sunday mornings.

Is there a restaurant at the hotel?

Yes. The hotel is home to Élevage Soho Kitchen & Bar, where breakfast is served, along with several spaces focused on wine and spirits. Culinary identity is at the heart of the hotel experience.

Is the Epicurean Hotel worthwhile for Marriott Bonvoy elite members?
