We had such a great stay at The Don CeSar and can’t wait to come again! From the moment we arrived, we were welcomed with smiles and kindness. A special shoutout to the amazing valet crew—especially Denis, who was always so friendly and welcoming. Our son, absolutely loved interacting with him! At check-in, Nick at the front desk was incredibly helpful and kind, setting the tone for a great stay. And a big thank you to Julian for his exceptional hospitality—he went above and beyond by filling my bottle with ice when I was in a rush. It’s those thoughtful little moments that really made a difference. Housekeeping kept our room spotless, and the entire staff at the pool and bar were fantastic—from the bartenders to the team who helped us find seats and even laid out our towels. They truly went above and beyond to make us feel cared for. The Don CeSar had everything we needed and more. We felt completely taken care of from start to finish. Truly an amazing team and hotel—we’ll definitely be back!

The Don did not disappoint. I’ve lived in Tampa for over 25 years and never took advantage of this gem until this year. The hotel is still recovering from the back to back hurricanes in 2024 but the service, staff, rooms, and amenities were great! We will be back in the future to celebrate more big events in our lives. Thanks for making my birthday so special!

DON CESAR is a 5 star hotel. The architecture of the building is impressive and the beautiful decorations inside complete the excellence of this place. They have alternatives of amenities like: pool, spa, fittness, stores, jacuzzi, great dining and of course the excellent beach of St. Pete. We stayed one night to celebrate our anniversary but next time we will consider to stay two. Eventhough, there was an area that was still remodeling because of Milton Huricane the rest of the accesible areas were awsome.

The property is beautiful, but it is about 50% ready to treat and accommodate guests the way it should be. Understanding there was a horrible storm that almost destroyed the hotel, if you can’t give guests a 5 star treatment and what they expect for these prices, don’t open until you can. The night of my check-in both pools were opened, the next day I woke up, only the small pool was open. No seats were available and every guest crammed into this small area. I was awoken to loud hammering being done on the property at 8:00am in the morning. Restaurant menu very limited with burnt bacon served to us. I put in a call to the hotel manager over these things I really felt needed addressing and he doesn’t answer the phone, or return calls. Unfortunately my money is spent better on a luxury property that has all features that are advertised.

Decent Stay with Good Service — But Rooms Need Updating The hotel and surrounding area are still recovering from hurricane damage, and it shows in places. While many common areas look refreshed, the rooms and hallways feel noticeably dated and in need of real attention. That said, everything was clean, and the bathrooms appeared updated. We stayed in a standard double. It wasn’t cheap, likely due to the holiday weekend. The main restaurant didn’t seem fully operational, though breakfast was available buffet-style in a common area. Limited bar food was served at the indoor and outdoor bars—pricey but good. Service was a strong point. Beach and bar staff were excellent, and most employees were attentive and professional, though a few at the front desk and breakfast area seemed inexperienced or distracted. Live music each day was a great touch, and all three performers were solid. For a 4th of July weekend, though, the experience lacked any real holiday spirit. With decent weather by evening on the 4th and full sun on the 5th and 6th, it was disappointing that there wasn’t a BBQ or celebratory event—just the standard menu and music. Overall, a clean and serviceable spot with good vibes, but the dated rooms and lackluster holiday programming left something to be desired.

We did not like sharing DOGSs at an upscale hotel. This means dogs have been on beds, defecated on carpeting and are an overall annoyance to people who don't like pets and are allergic to animal dander. At this price point, we would never stay at the Don Cesar ever again. It certainly lost its unique appeal and luster. A sad day for the Pink Lady of yesteryear.
