Love this hotel! Pool area is great with pool bar and hot tub in a tropical setting. Clean and comfy rooms. Walkable to Siesta beach (1 mile) and many restaurants. Free shuttle to beach. Have chairs and umbrellas you can borrow. Can rent a beach towel for $5! Continental breakfast. Only drawbacks: The hot tub spa is not working. The breakfast does not offer many choices.

Sparks by HIlton in Sarasota

I like this Sparks hotel in Sarasota and will probably stay again as it is in a central location to everything. I stayed in an accessible room that was clean but the mattress was too soft for stability when getting out of bed, the refrigerator was less than half the size of a dormitory frig and it was on the floor which made it difficult for a 78 yr old person with medical issues to retrieve items. Breakfast was from 6:00 - 10:00 and the breakfast items and coffee were constantly refilled and plenty of seating. All hotels should have breakfast ending at 10:00! Didn't get to use the pool but the area was very clean and had a bar.

Honestly, was very disappointed with the hotel and room given it’s a Hilton property. Pictures online made it seem normal and nice. Hotel itself gave motel vibes, very outdated with carpet on the outside hallway. Room had a weird smell. AC made the room feel cool while on but once it was off it felt like there was no ac circulating. Floors stained and my son found a dead bug. Shower curtains gross. They were cloth like and dirty stained. Countertop of bathroom sink area stained with like rust marks. Pillows flat as if they were filled with air. Just overall poor experience and not what I expected.
