Stayed at Vinoy in January 2012. Very nice hotel with a lot of good restaurants within walking distance. Fitness area and fitness classes (the exception being one of the spin teachers who doesn't seem to know the basics of exercise physiology, ignores new people and whose vocab consists of three words - "TO THE RIGHT!". Other spin and yoga teachers... More

Visited here for one night. What a magnificent hotel. Love the Chihuly glass and the architecture around the hotel. Very grand and "old world". The history of the place is amazing. Take the free tour of the hotel in the afternoon if you get a chance. Well worth it. Good: Service seemed very prompt and attentive. Had lunch and breakfast... More

My wife and I checked in and her eyes were as big as saucers. She said, "this is the nicest hotel I've ever been in." A pretty big statement since she's travelled half way around the globe. We had a great time, the staff was fantastic and the area was a great place to visit. The wife and I highly... More

I spent a wonderful week at the Vinoy for a Conference and work. The Hotel in it self is beautiful and the restoration is magnificent. The service was overall outstanding. I ordered room service and was so pleased to feast upon a well prepared meal, presented beautifully. The restaurants are not the "run of the mill" hotel fare, the food... More

We were in Tampa for three days over Christmas and decided to try the Vinoy in St Petersburg for breakfast one morning. They had a buffet but we opted for the menu. Lemon souffle pancakes with raspberries and raspberry syrup. Holy Cow! They looked like pancakes and tasted like souffles. We ended up driving from Tampa back to the Vinoy... More

I reently attended a confernce which was held at this hotel. I liked that it was an old hotel updated to modern standards. The restaurants were fine and I liked the workout room. The hotel is a little disjointed and walking from my room (in the tower) requires you to walk outside briefly and up and down stairs to get... More

In fact we left the wedding early in order to enjoy this resort. Our room was very elegent, the staff was very helpful and we were treated very well. The resort... More

we had a wonderful time at this hotel and would recommend it without any worries! hiccup with breakfast as we had paid for breakfast but the staff did not seem to understand the idea of a 'continental' breakfast but i am sure this has now been addressed. More

My wife had a trade show at the Vinoy (we had been there before several years ago for another trade show), so we stayed overnight before the day of the show. For being kindo of downtown and near the water - it is a great place to stay, shop near by, great restaurants withing walking distance. Also great to take... More
