The Godfrey Hotel & Cabanas Tampa
February 7th marked the official opening and ribbon cutting ceremony for The Godfrey Hotel & Cabanas Tampa (formerly known as Bay Harbor Hotel & Conference Center). Our team was on site to capture photos of the multimillion dollar renovation for future use on their social media channels. Godfrey Hotels are the brainchild of Oxford Hotels & Resorts, an award-winning full service hotel management company. This Tampa locations mark the third location in The Godfrey collection, the first two being Chicago and Boston (The Godfrey Hotel Hollywood is also in the works). From the moment we arrived we were in love with this thoughtfully re-designed space.
The palm tree lined entrance is so perfectly Florida. Next, you’re greeted by a light and airy lobby space with nautical accents sprinkled throughout. The mix and variety of textures was especially appealing. We would soon come to learn the same contemporary design elements are woven into the rest of the property. Although the stay was short and sweet, our experience was full of intriguing interiors, colorful food, and breathtaking sunsets.
Every guest room features a private patio or balcony offering breathtaking views of the city skyline or twinkling Tampa Bay.
