There Ants on the balcony and the shower pressure was weak and it was hard for it to get hot water.

In and out of the hotel from parking was odd. The staff was nice but difficult to communicate with. The room was very nice but even after we asked for a late checkout, housekeeping was pushing to get us out.

The property was under construction so the exterior had equipment and supplies in pods and the reception area was a temporary desk. The downside to our stay was the fact that the employees did not inform us of the umbrella and beach chairs provided, bikes and kayaks were included to use until day before checkout . Actually we found out from a guest staying here. No info was given about the internal restaurant nor rooftop bar until we saw signs. Our room was nice, clean and comfortable however the staff seriously needs to work on communicating with the guests informing them what is offered during their stay.

I have stayed at this hotel several times prior and was looking forward to staying there over July 4 holiday. When checked in we were not given the balcony view room that was booked months prior. I specifically booked a balcony room for July 4 holiday weekend. Had I known I wouldn’t get a balcony, I would have booked elsewhere. The hotel was apparently under construction and the room we were given had a view out the window of a construction dumpster. There were also clumps of hair on the floor of the room. We were told there were no balcony rooms available and a manager would call us next day to discuss a discount. Did not receive a call. The day of checkout we received a bill with no discount so I asked again and was told a manager would call. We did end up receiving a total of a $70 discount for both nights.

This is a gem on St. Pete Beach. This was my second time staying at The Hotel Zamora within one year. The hotel is conveniently located in an area that I have visited for over 30 years. I gave the hotel 5 stars across the board, but I would like to mention a staffing concern. During the Jully 4th weekend, I believe the pool and beach chair service failed to deliver. One day, we were able to get assistance from valet to get more beach chairs set up on the beach but then valet got busy. We had to wait for the pool staff to respond with beach chairs. The next day, we had to call for beach chairs again because there were not enough beach chairs set up for guests. Finding clean towels at the pool was another challenge throughout the days. I would suggest during busy times, such as holidays or when the hotel is fully booked, there should be two beach/pool on staff as it was difficult to find both staff. There should be sufficient staff because it makes a difference.

Avoid this place at all costs. They failed to inform us about construction so there was a constant noise in our rooms. We found cockroaches in both suites and the pictures aren’t up to date with how the property is currently setup.

Not good.
Filthy room, so so service, old and outdated decor and furniture that was broken. Rooftop bar, not accessable if there is a wedding, which there was everyday we were there! No view as promised and the beds are not queen, they are full and SO uncomfortable! The manager did it make right by refunding 3 of our 5 night stay.

For the price, this hotel fell short. The room was just off the Main Street on the first floor and was loud at night and during the day. The bathroom had no towel racks. The desk had no outlets. The hotel refused to take a night off my reservation where I couldn’t stay in the room so I ended up paying for it despite pleading with them and Hotels.com multiple times. Everything seemed a little off and done on the cheap but pretending otherwise. I would not stay here again.

Was not told there was a wedding there over the weekend and would not have access to both restaurants when I arrived. Very disappointing as we had planned to go to the second restaurant at our second night and then we're told we could not go there. Staff at the front desk was not very friendly upon arriving or helpful with learning about the hotel.

Broken ac, not the customer service I expected!!!
We checked in at hotel, and were given a room that the hotel was aware the ac was NOT working. We lowered ac and it wouldn’t go below 79, told front desk and the person in the front didn’t ask to check, or even say will send maintenance to check. Clearly they were aware ac didn’t work and still decided to give us the room that they did. 208a. Ended up asking if they will give us a room with working ac in this Florida heat, and he said I have to check with management and also, we need to check if the party who had reservations was coming or not to accommodate guests who already are checked in. They finally gave us another room 301a and that one had working ac thankfully!

This is our second year here because last year was a great experience—this year has been poor. To start with, there is construction going on early every morning so we woke up to loud yelling and continous banging. The service for drinks and food at the pool area was nonexistent for the first three days of our trip. On the fourth day, they set up and closed quickly because the hotel power went out. The staff that provide help for using the paddle boards and kayaks were nowhere to be found as well most of our trip. The difference in service was really what is driving my overall rating. I do not plan on booking again in the future because there are plenty of other great options in St.Petersburg. The price point is higher to stay here so the experience and expectation bar is set higher. I considered it worth the money based on the experience last year, but this year the lack of staffing and construction killed our experience. I shared this with the front desk upon our departure but nothing was done to end our experience on a positive note; highly disappointed and will share this experience with everyone I know.
