St. Petersburg - Clearwater Hotel Guide - Merry Pier hotels in St. Petersburg - Clearwater, United States of America.

"The hotel has a lot of pools (although the hot tub was dirty and a bit stinky), fun planned activities for kids, and access to tradewinds. With that said, the rooms are very dated. The staff at the front desk wasn’t always there, and our phone wouldn’t even connect to the front desk! Our friends booked a balcony room, only to find their definition of some “balconies” was a sliding glass door with a gate over it. The kind you see in unfinished homes. They would not change rooms or refund them the price difference, and it was several staff members before someone acknowledged this was not a true balcony. They also advertise a lot of things for kids to do, but many of them cost a significant amount of extra money. "

"Room smells, breakfast is a joke but staff are accommodating. "

"Steps away from the beach! Second floor balcony perfect for watching the sunset and the beach! Clean room! Very accommodating! "

"Yes"

"I was in the area for a business meeting so my family went with me to hang out at the beach. Overall, the staff was not very friendly and seemed put off to help. The hotel is historic and cool, but rooms are small and for the price you would think other things would be more accommodating and nice. Prices were quite high for everything. The elevator system is awful and took so long that we used the stairs the whole stay. They were filming a show 2 of the 3 days we were there which shut down one of the avg sized pools (only have two) requiring all guests to cram into the other area. Filming also shut down the lobby and elevator area for an extensive time. I asked the front desk (two others beside me also asked) about why we’re not told about the filming and if there would be a discount. Front desk person just smirked and said that would not be happening. At the Society restaurant for dinner, my daughter who has an egg and nut allergy (we disclose to everyone) had to order a chicken soft taco with cheese. This was an off menu item they said they could do. It showed up with cubed chicken that was barely warm with a slice of Kraft cheese laying on it. It was disgusting. After voicing frustration, the manager who saw the same thing took off 10%. I don’t mind paying for things, especially for good service and nice amenities but this stay was well below expectations."

"I got a standard room for four people, and it was really small. No room anywhere to put any suitcases but other than that everything was excellent. Definitely will be going back and getting a bigger room next time."

"Great location and friendly staff. The apartment was clean and had beach toys/chairs for use. The property was super cute and well maintained. Will definitely go back!"

"Best kept secret…large spotless rooms and even access to rooftop for beautiful views! "

"Such a great hidden gem! Walkable to the beach, and restaurants. The room was modern, cozy and well stocked. We enjoyed this place very much. Will definitely return. "
