Sarasota Hotels with Bars

A room with a lovely view. Quite a walking distance to restaurants and everything but average hotel restaurant for late dinner. Very spacious room and toilet or breakfast. They have to send serviceman twice to fix the heat/room control. Sliding door to balcony was heavy to open and close. The deal was average I would say.

This was the best hotel I ever stayed in it was so beautiful it has a amazing views spa room yoga room Massage room and most of all priced prices were great *********** And a heated pool a Hot tub and te rooms come from standard rooms King size studios to kitchenettes

We booked to stay on our wedding night but were slightly underwhelmed this wasn’t even acknowledged. The hotel was clean on the whole with a quick check-in. The rooms were a decent size. Thankfully we brought toiletries with us as the bathroom amenities were empty.

The location is very nice and the staffs are very friendly and accommodating! Only the hallway in our floor were sprayed out with disinfectant smelly. But all overview, we are very satisfied with this booking. We really enjoyed this weekend.

The lady at the front desk when we arrived was so sweet and welcoming. We had an issue with our rooms air conditioner and she made a room change possible even though they were sold out. It took her all off five mins to solve the problem for us. She was fantastic what great customer service !

Amazing innovative hotel. From the moment you walk in your senses are filled with delight. From the gorgeous scent in the lobby to the visually beautiful art displayed everywhere, its a dream. The staff here was lovely from the front desk to the pool bar staff to the restaurant downstairs... impeccable! We had an amazing driver named Jim that shuttled us wherever we wanted to go and had really good suggestions and knowledge of the area. This hotel is a definite must when in town even if you're just popping in to see the art or have a drink.

The staff was friendly and helpful and accommodated my early check in. They invited me to a pool party that night and warned that it might be noisy. However, my room (#422) was on the corner away from the pool, and I didn't hear a thing. It was next to the elevator, but I heard no noise from that or from guests in the hallway. I enjoyed the mid 20th century accents of the hotel decor. On my second morning I discovered that there was only decaf and tea in the coffee maker selection, but after a call to the front desk, regular coffee pods were quickly delivered to my room. The bathroom was spacious and spotless, as was the bedroom, but I wish I could have made the shower a bit hotter.

Not a good start. Thought I would try a ”hip” place with a great location in Sarasota for a business trip. First, no acknowledgement of gold elite. Maybe that wasn't good enough. Second, I didn't know there was only cleaning every other day. Couldn't even be guaranteed cleaning upon request per the front desk team member but he said he will try. I think Motel 6 cleans your room each day if you ask. Then, there was no internet, at least not in the inside of the room on the seventh floor. It did connect for a few minutes in the bathroom which backs up against the hallway, but that's not where I wanted to have to spend my time just to be connected to what came up as an insecure internet connection. Again, the front desk team said that the service comes and goes. Isn't this what you want to hear for $300+ per night? The truth is it deserves no stars, but the gym looks great and I am hoping it gets better. If not, I will respectfully ask for a refund.

We had a great stay here. Some of the reviews made me second guess our upcoming stay, but I am glad we moved forward. The hotel is great, the staff is even better. Is this the newest Ritz out there? No. However, it's the nicest spot in Sarasota. The dining is great and the beach club is the perfect day to spend the day. We were there off season in August, some of the schools had just started. On a few days there were only a handful of guests at the beach club pool area. It was great! We used our rental car to get to the beach club so we wouldn't need to wait for the shuttle. It's a short drive. Such a really nice relaxing stay! I will say, the new St. Regis will give this Ritz a run once it opens this fall. It looks amazing, so they will need to step up their game.

Martha Gomez at the front desk was AMAZING!! She helped me out with internet issues that I was having. Her attitude and personality was very nice. The stay was great, I came for a business trip and stayed 5 days, it was after Hurricane Helene so the pool was closed. The food was great at the restaurant. Overall would recommend if you’re stopping by Sarasota.
