Top Downtown Pensacola Hotel Reviews

Quality Inn & Suites Pensacola Bayview

4/10 Poor

"Horrible stay. The tv didnt work. The fridge made this loud ass noise all night long. The bathroom door scraped the floor and you had to literally pick up on it to make it shut. But the worst part was the carpet was installed wrong so it had nails sticking up and my husband stepped on a nail pretty good causing his foot to bleed. Told the hotel the next morning and they only offered to refund 10% of our stay which would be like $10. Won't be staying there again. "

Courtyard by Marriott Pensacola

6/10 Okay

"This was my second stay at this property due to location. It will be my last. If you need a chiropractor after sleeping in the bed it’s time to find a different hotel. Hotel was clean, bistro hits the spot,great location. If you like rock hard beds this is the place for you,if you need a medium bed this is not the place. Staff was very friendly everything else was good. "

The Pensacola Beach Resort

10/10 Excellent

"The beach view is gorgeous ..the hotel is beautiful and the staff is very professional and friendly..The restaurant food was awesome and had a great selection..loved loved the chicken nachos outside by pool …crab cakes Benedict was delicious….my husband loved the shrimp and grits …we will be back to Pensacola and only book at this facility "

Surf & Sand Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"Really amazing location! Nestled between the bay and the gulf- it’s perfect for whatever water activities you want to enjoy. We were super excited to take advantage of the free kayaks and paddle boards, but unfortunately it was too windy on the night we were there. The pool and fire pit area is gorgeous and the chairs down by the water was the perfect place to watch the sunset. It is an older hotel, but remodeled very nicely. "

Comfort Inn Pensacola - University Area

8/10 Good

"Staff was very friendly and helpful. Room was nicely decorated, clean with very good lighting. However the chair for the desk needs to be replaced. Hot breakfast was very good. A very good Mexican restaurant is located next door to the hotel that we greatly enjoyed. We would stay here again. "
