Tampa Where to stay in Tampa?
Posted: Mon February 23, 2009 04:16 AM UTC
Hi,

I'm looking to book a vacation in Tampa for myself and my fiance for late May/early June. I'm see some good deals on hotels but I have no idea what location is best. We're are looking for a location that will have good restaurant and bars within walking distance. Can some one tell me which of the following areas would provide such facilities.

Brandon
Busch Gardens
Tampa Airport
Tampa Downtown
Tampa East
Tampa North

Any information greatly appreciated.

Thanks

I second the suggestion of Ybor City, and if not Ybor City then Downtown Tampa as there is a streetcar from downtown to Ybor City.

I would not recommend you stay in Ybor. Stay at Channelside or Harbour Island and take the trolly to Ybor and back. You may not like Ybor after hours!!!
