Top South Pensacola Hotel Reviews

Hilton Pensacola Beach

6/10 Okay

"When we arrived, we were able to check in early; which was nice. Had a Jr. Suite. It was Memorial day weekend so we paid a lot more than it was worth. We Got to our room, the door stuck and was difficult to push open. The room was about 700 sq ft. Unfortunately, the TV in the living area didn't work. The carpet was a bit sticky. Halfway through our stay, the lights in the kitchenette area stopped working. I understand people love their pets and it's great that hotels recognize it; however, it's my opinion that people with pets should be housed in a specific part of the hotel. The beach access was good. The pool was also good but there was so many people the water was rather cloudy most of the time. Being that it is a Hilton hotel and rated "excellent" you'd expect the rooms to live up to the lobby area and be really nice. I was a little disappointed because we spent a hefty sum and felt like everything was overpriced, everywhere. They didn't even provide a bottle of water. The parking lot was small and seemed quite cramped. One would think parking would not cost $15 per night when you pay so much to stay. There certainly wasn't space for the number of rooms. Other then the negative, we still had a nice time with family."

Fairfield Inn & Suites by Marriott Pensacola Beach

2/10 Terrible

"My family stayed two nights for a graduation trip for my son this past weekend. The stay started off great, the lady who checked us in was very helpful in making sure my two rooms were on the same floor, the hotel itself was very clean and amenities where great, however the second day was not so great! Two of our teenagers got stuck in the elevator, they called us in a panic as one of them is claustrophobic and scared of elevators. After trying to get help by pressing the help button on the elevator and no response, my son called 911 for help. While this was going on, in a panic I went to the front desk to see if there was anything I needed to do or where I needed to wait for my kids and she very rudely said "no the fire department is on their way, they are fine" My daughters also went to the front desk before me and asked what was going on and she accused the boys of causing the problem. She was very rude!! The fire department arrived and helped get them out of the elevator, which they had to climb out of. Front staff was also upset that my son called 911 bc "they would have to pay for it" Upon getting out of the elevator, they were accused of making it happen, I confronted the night manager who very little help. She did apologize for making that assumption though. Also, ANOTHER elevator also stopped working while my kids were being saved by the fire department. I asked to speak to a higher manager and was told he wouldn't be in until the next morning which I could"

6/10 Okay

"Place is great and great location. But cable was out the whole time. They have smart TVs so you would think could stream from the TV, BUT the smart TVs are not set up to use any internet. This seems ridiculous they don't bother to have the TVs set up to work."

Quality Inn & Suites Gulf Breeze Bayside near Pensacola Beach

8/10 Good

"Somewhat dated building, but a fairly decent stay. Holiday pricing was also in effect, so I should have expected more from the stay (i.e., better amenities, a bigger TV, quieter AC, etc.), but it was the least expensive hotel in the area for the night. Breakfast was too early for me to get up for since I arrived late the evening prior. Staff was friendly and efficient. Would stay again for price/value and location."

La Quinta Inn by Wyndham Pensacola

4/10 Poor

"The grounds were filthy and unkept. There were cigarette butts everywhere and trash scattered about the grounds. The parking lot had leaves and limbs covering the parking lot in areas. It appears that the parking lot has not been blown off since the fall. I was concerned about walking my dog around the grounds. Also, there were no bags for the dog waste available. The door to my room was not sealed as there was a half inch crack letting in light and air near the bottom. I also found a couple of cockroaches in the room."

Comfort Inn Pensacola - University Area

4/10 Poor

"One day, at 8.30min the morning, there was absolutely nothing to eat, except some black coffee. No eggs, no meat, no bread, no muffins, no bagels, no mix for waffles, no syrup, no milk, no juices. Absolutely nothing and only one person looking around to see what was missing."
