Hampton Inn & Suites Venice Bayside/South Sarasota

Construction seems to be taking a long time! The gym was not operational, and an elevator was out of order.

We stayed in a suite which was very spacious. Nice pool and hot tub. Half of the property was being renovated which made getting to and from room difficult but I expect that will be completed soon.

Family Trip to Venice Beach !! Wonderful hotel !! Very nice people in every department. Great breakfast. Very efficient staff.

Nice place! Some areas were under repair and only 1 elevator was working. That part was a hassle but overall great place to stay with free breakfast 😋

This hotel IS HIDING THE FACT THAT THEY ARE DOING A COMPLETE REMODELING from *******, the website, and guest while booking. Typical garbage corporate GREED. This is not a small job and it should be closed while they are doing a COMPLETE REMODELING. This is the place for you if you want to smell what I can best describe as the lumber and paint department in Home Depot. Soon as you set foot in the lobby you'll start to cough, sneeze, and have eyes watering. As you walk to the elevator you'll see what looks like Dexter's kill room with tarps hanging up sloppy not keeping a thing from contaminating the rest of lobby and you will have to pass this EVERYTIME you use elevator. The rooms were actually very nice and spacious. Our favorite part was the smell of cut drywall and wood as well as smelling paint fumes every day in the room. We would have to go outside from time to time to give our sinuses a break, and there you'll be greeted with a shady unsafe area, complemented with guests drinking out the back of pickup trucks, as well as freak shows sleeping in cars and mindless people walking around property. Don't let little Billy walk alone!! Breakfast?! Do NOT believe the reviews about this hotel having a great breakfast. It was horrible. But, good luck actually getting anything because you'll be having to deal with this hotel actually letting all the ILLEGAL IMMIGRANTS they hired for construction go use the lobby and eat breakfast. DO NOT BOOK THIS PLACE!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Great Stay They were nice from the word go, rooms were clean and everything else looked in order. They had construction going on but had that well under control as well. This was my first time staying there and I felt very comfortable at this location.
