Top Downtown Pensacola Hotel Reviews

The Pensacola Beach Resort

10/10 Excellent

"Wonderful place in Pensacola. Staff was outstanding. Beachfront was superb. Only downside was tiki bar staff was not very friendly in my opinion."

Country Inn & Suites by Radisson, Pensacola West, FL

8/10 Good

"The property was accessible and the stafff were all nice and qute helpful. The quality of the breakfast could have been better eggs maybe bacon and otherwise as expected. The room was cleabn except wewhen the ac was turned off there was a stale smell that could be removed with batter sanitization. We were un willing to complain as our stay in pensacola diofd not afford us the time to complain. This smell was off putting. Another reoom was skippped over by the front desk because it had a moisture problem so did this one. Your website seems to default to handicapped rooms and the software could be tweaked to avoid theis problem coming up again and again at the front desk."
