Tampa Marriott Waterside

The Tampa Marriott Waterside is a 27-story hotel building that rises along Tampa Bay with a facade of glass and steel oriented toward the water. The structure features open-air design elements that frame views of the bay and integrate the waterfront into the building's layout.

Construction was completed in 2000 and marked a key moment when Tampa began reshaping its waterfront into a modern commercial district. The building arrived as part of broader downtown development efforts that changed how the bay was used.

The structure integrates Florida's maritime heritage through its design elements and maintains strong connections with Tampa's waterfront commercial district.

The waterfront location makes the building easy to find and navigate from other parts of downtown. Multiple elevators and clear signage throughout help guests move efficiently between levels and spaces.

Certain guest rooms feature air purification technology that actively cleans the air during stays. This focus on air quality was an unusual addition when the building opened.
