Recent Renaissance International Plaza Review: "I literally loved everything about the Renaissance Tampa International Plaza. The hotel was beautifully appointed and the rooms were comfortable and clean. They also had 42in TVs which I adore because I like to watch TV before I go to sleep. There was also an in-room coffee machine, so you can have a cup of coffee to help "boot up" in the morning before showering. The hotel has great restaurants and a bar, but it is also attached to an outdoor plaza area with additional dining, live entertainment at night and a even a super nice mall (with a Starbucks and Nordstrom). You can get pretty much anything you want at any time. The stadium is also about 1 mile away so you can walk to games and events if you don't feel like paying $25 to park closer. We walked home from the Bucs game with no problem. All in all, I had a great time at the hotel and wished I could have stayed longer. :-)"
