Fodors just rated Tampa’s first and only five-star hotel one of the “best” and “most incredible” in the world.
The yearly ranking of the world’s 60 greatest hotels is compiled by travel specialists.
Only 20 hotels in North America were nominated, with The Tampa Edition being the only Florida hotel to make the cut.
The Tampa Edition’s “posh yet minimalist” accommodations and signature restaurant, Lilac, which got a Michelin star in May, were praised by the travel company.
“The hotel’s nonstop nightlife scene—especially at the bougainvillea-draped rooftop pool bar but also at the swanky lobby bar (where you should not miss sipping a harissa margarita)—make it a firm favourite hangout among locals,” Fodors said.
