Springhill Suites By Marriott Punta Gorda Harborside

“Excellent location and good experience”

Great hotel! Extremely clean, seems very new, and had the best free breakfast for this class of hotel that we’ve ever seen. Room is a very nice size. Polite staff. Has a small food menu and bar inside but we enjoyed exploring the many Punta Gorda restaurants within a block or 2.

“Very pretty good”

Room was beautiful and clean as a whistle. Bed was amazing and so comfortable. The small fridge in the room doesn’t keep super cold so be weary. Complimentary breakfast is decent but nothing to write home about. Advertised waffle maker but they don’t have one which was disappointing. Allowed us to … Mehr

Room was beautiful and clean as a whistle. Bed was amazing and so comfortable. The small fridge in the room doesn’t keep super cold so be weary. Complimentary breakfast is decent but nothing to write home about. Advertised waffle maker but they don’t have one which was disappointing. Allowed us to check out late which helped a lot. Would definitely reccomened in hopes the complimentary breakfast is improved a little more. All staff that we interacted with was amazing!

I stayed here recently while in town for work and it was a pleasant stay! The room was very clean. The layout was typical for a Springhill suites. It was spacious with a big screen tv and a nice desk. There were plenty of outlets, and Netflix was at the touch of a button if you wanted it. The couch and ugly carpet appeared a bit worn, but they were in decent enough condition. There was a Keurig coffee machine, a microwave, and a small fridge (no freezer section). The toiletries provided were surprisingly good quality and smelled great. Housekeeping was offered only every other day, but the service was good when provided. My room had a small but nice window view of the harbor and bridge. The bridge traffic was noisy at times, but not overwhelming. It was really no big deal to me. It never interrupted my sleep. The staff were very hospitable. The Front desk provided a very helpful list of the area restaurants, including which ones were within walking distance. The lobby pantry has decent snacks and microwaveable food for purchase. There is also a small lobby bar available at night. The included breakfast is good. Not amazing, but good. There is a hot buffet that varies daily. It typically includes a meat choice, eggs, and either pancakes, biscuits, or potatoes. They also have cold cereals, toast, yogurt, and fruit. You definitely can find something to fill you up in the morning. The seating area can get crowded, but this is typical of area hotels during snowbird season. The hotel location is nice. It is next to a downtown fishing village with cute looking cafes, shops, and restaurants that are all within walking distance. They are mostly local restaurants, which is nice if you have time to explore the town. When on buisness, it’s a bit harder to find familiar food quickly. But Publix and Starbucks are a short drive away (close but not walkable). The area is much more charming than Port Charlotte, which is just over the bridge that is adjacent to the hotel. The bummer is the parking. The parking lot is very very small. It fills up quickly, and often by non-patrons of the hotel. The Four Points Sheridan with its Tiki hut bar is next door, as is an area convention center. As a result, self parking at the hotel is impossible at night. You can park a block or two away on most nights, but if there is an event at the convention center, then you will be out of luck. There is valet parking available, but it is unreasonably priced at $10.00 a night, particularly as it is hard to also tip the valets well at that price. Not if you are staying for several days. And the valet staff really were quite friendly and efficient. They deserve a good tip! Aside from the limited parking and the worn/ ugly carpeting in the room, I’d say this is a nice choice for the Punta Gorda area. I’d stay again if in the area.
