Hotwire Hotel: Help ID Tampa Westshore Intl Airport Hotels 7/2-7/3

[familyj4]

Would like help identifying a few hotels from Hotwire search for Westshore/Tampa International Airport, looking at 7/2-7/3.

4* - Shuttle, no smoking, fitness, swimming pool, restaurant, business center, internet $59

3.5* - No smoking, fitness, swimming, restaurant, business center, internet, golf, tennis $52

3* - Shuttle, complimentary breakfast, swimming pool, business center, laundry, internet, kitchenette $49

For this trip, we're flying into St. Pete, and going cruising. Will have to stay another night (above date) coming back. Suggestions on hotels with this shuttle included, or other options greatly appreciated. Thanks!

Sorry for not following up on our request for help on our first night's stay in Tampa. I just responded to that. As I said there, we're hoping to finalize all of our plans today (nothing like the last moment). Once we do make decisions I will absolutely provide an update on what we went with. Thanks for your help.

4* - my guess would be the Inter-Continental.

3.5* - I'm not seeing this listing when searching - are you still seeing it, and if so, how many people are you searching for?

3* - my guess would be the Chase Suites.

Thank you for using the site's HOTWIRE or PRICELINE links to start your purchases and searches.

Thank you.

Yes, still seeing the 3.5*. Searching for 4 adults.

I see this HOTWIRE offer but a hotel with this exact amenity set has not yet been reported to the board. However, i think the Crowne Plaza Westshore with the addition of a new Smoke Free icon is a good possibility among the likely candidates, and that would be my best guess for this one.

Let us know how it goes or if we can be of further help.

Thanks for all of your help and information.

We decided to go with another option for Pre-Cruise and After Cruise. We went with the Hyatt Place Westshore that has a Snooze & Cruise special for $109. This option provided shuttle before and after the cruise. We opted to stay another night at this hotel after the cruise.

Lesson learned as far a flying into Tampa. We should have chose Tampa International, rather than flying into St Pete. The cab/shuttle ride alone from St Pete probably negates any savings on our flights.

Thanks again for helping us weigh all of our options.
