Four Points by Sheraton Tallahassee Downtown

Love this place! Have stayed there several times and it has become my go to place in Tally. Make your reservation they’ve the Starwood Preferred Guest app and you get a very reasonable price. We paid less than $ 100 after tax, but it includes free WiFi, free parking, free water bottles and the added security of actual night time security. We came in at 2am, the security guard was manning the front doors and asked to see our room key before giving us access to the elevator aka guest rooms. Great thing to know if you worry about hotel safety. Room was wonderfully quiet, could not hear any street or airplane noise. Check out isn’t until noon, BONUS. The only downfall is the room doesn’t have a fridge and room service stops at 11pm. I think next time we go and plan on staying out late we will try their sister hotel Aloft that does have 24 hour room service. Did I tell you the Juice Bar has a wonderful bartender, and a large comfy hot tub? They ate definitely worth a try. Our first time at Four Points Tally was daughters FSU orientation. They knew how to welcome us parents back from a long day of walking all over campus with local craft beer samples and music, and temping is where towels ate located on the pool deck. Wonderful stay highly recommend it.

My first experience was ok… However my second stay different story… First we found bedbugs in our room! We told the staff nobody ever called us about it even we notify the front desk… After we found our room was never properly clean. I found caprisun drinks under our beds from the previous guest .even better I placed that caprisun drink pouch in the trash and when I came back at night I found it my night table … Like really??? We have complained to everyone so far no one has yet reach out to us… Our last stay here for sure !!

Staff is very friendly and helpful. Rooms are very small and not worth the price of $ 135. Like most «downtown» hotels u pay a premium for the location. I’ll probably stay up closer to the interstate next time

How appropriate is it to base my rating solely on my interactions with staff?
I had the pleasure of meeting Briana, Front Desk Supervisor, Kirk, Bellman, and Ms. Valerie in Housekeeping. My experience with each of them surpassed my expectation. They were all welcoming, genuine, and helpful. Throughout my 3 night stay I asked Briana so many questions that I’m surprised that she didn’t runaway when she saw me heading in her direction. If she was tired of me, she certainly didn’t hint at it, as she answered each question to the best of her ability. If there was something that she was uncertain of or did not know, she went in search of the answer and did so ever so graciously. Kirk, was very engaging as he shuttled me to FAMU’s campus. I don’t mind silence, but I appreciate the fact that he took a few minutes to get to know me and I him. Likewise, Ms. Valerie was very knowledgeable about the surrounding area which was great in order for me to navigate the downtown. She also made sure that my needs in relation to the room were taken care of. She handled things in a matter of a few minutes. Those 3 really made my time away from home comfortable.
The hotel in itself is nice. As others have said, it’s not a luxurious hotel, however, they have taken the time to almost perfect the experience. It’s newly renovated, has an in-​house tapas/​bistro/​bar, a pool, and outside bar… What more can one ask for?! It’s also centrally located, a walking distance and/​or shuttle accessible to the FAMU and FSU.
The shuttle is free and rides within a 1 mile radius of the hotel. It also goes to the airport. If you’re interested in utilizing the shuttle be sure to sign up for a time slot at the front desk. One more important detail… They have the good ice!!!

This is hands down the best hotel experience I’ve had. The room and amenities were great, but the employees are really what made it amazing. The first employee to welcome me to the hotel was Josh Fellerman. He was the sweetest and very helpful with my ridiculous amount of luggage. Also very attractive! I checked in with Amanda Davis who was very welcoming and kind. She had plenty of great suggestions of things to do and places to eat in the area (which were all delicious) and was very patient with me and all my questions! Overall, I loved my stay and would gladly stay there again!

I’ve stayed at this location a few times. It’s clean and fairly quiet. The location is in a good area and easy to get in and out of. It’s not luxurious but nice. Great for business travelers!

Once a year my job requires me to plan a trip for a large group of members to Tallahassee during the legislative session. This year the hotel we typically use required a two night stay and it just wasn’t going to work so we ended up at Four Points. I dealt with Carol in their booking department and she was great. When we arrived, the front desk staff was very patient with our group as everyone checked in (we had 20+ rooms). The staff downstairs was super friendly and even offered to drive us in a really nice golf cart over to an event a few blocks away (it was cold!).
Like other people have said, the entryway to the room is a little awkward because of the shape of the building but the room itself is a very good size. My view was not great (it was of the top of the entrance basically) and I was right near the elevator, which is never ideal but the room was very comfortable. The wifi is fast and free (IMO way too many hotels charge insane rates for crappy wifi) and the TV was nice, too. I didn’t have anything to eat downstairs but they had a cute little restaurant/​bar. A few people in our group seemed to have an issue getting hot water the morning we were leaving but everyone else was satisfied.

oh dude I can’t believe I didn’t review and Unilocal this for yall.
ten dollar breakfast buffet and a decent menu later on when breakfast isn’t being served.

Nice hotel in the winter only. All of the rooms Air Conditioning is on a motion sensor. The first night we stayed at 2 in the morning the room got very warm. I ask the front desk if the room air conditioning was on a motion sensor… they said YES. So in the dark at 2 in the morning the air in your room goes back to their default settings as if the room is unoccupied. It must be 75…76…77. NOT at all good for sleeping if more than 1 person is in the room. Also the fan will never go any higher than low… no matter what you do. Good for their eletric bill… very warm for your stay. I am writing this review at 3 in the morning my second night… can’t sleep to warm again. The very first night I told the front desk of the problem… said they would check on it. Nothing changed!!!

Rooms are recently redone, small but nice. Noise level high from our 6^th floor room so didn’t sleep well. Came back 7:30 pm to find parking lot overflowing for an event so we had to park illegally across the street on security guy’s recommendation. I spent the last half hour watching my car out the window as I type this because two guys are hanging around it. I’d like to crash but need to move the car to legal parking when the event is over. Tried to get a glass of wine on the way up but bartender walked off, saw him chatting with the front desk a few minutes later so I left. Yeah, not thrilled and will stay somewhere else next trip.

Now, I have to start this review by saying I’m pretty sure this trip was cursed by the travel gods. My flight to Tallahassee couldn’t land, so instead of making it to the hotel at midnight, my detour to Gainesville, fight with the airline, and 3 hour cab ride back resulted in a 6am check in. Not the point of the review, but it sets the context of how low my expectations were at this point.
The did a pretty good job, though. The bed was really comfortable, and the wifi was fast enough to stream Netflix without thinking twice. The downstairs bar was decent — the spinach salad is definitely worth a try and the IPA they had on tap was really good (I believe it was a local brew). I also really appreciated that there was plenty of power outlets at the bar, so I was able to sit downstairs and work each evening with a beer in hand.
I wasn’t a huge fan of the bathrooms. They were a really weird shape (due to the spiral layout of each floor), and weren’t as clean as I would have expected. The towels were also starting to get a little threadbare.
Overall, it was ok. For a week long trip it was fine, but I wouldn’t necessarily want to do an extended stay there.

Clean and comfortable is the headline for this newly reopened hotel.
The building it self had been left empty and dilapidated for a number of years until Four Points by Sheraton came along a couple of years ago and revamped the entire place.
You immediately get a clean fresh feeling from the moment you pull onto the resort. Clean landscaping, lobby and bar area.
Entering the room is a little bit of a squeeze because of the circular building fitting approximately 15 rooms per floor. Once you make it beyond the initial entry way area you find a very decent size room.
The room was clean and modern, though I’m sure the company probably put the minimum into the quality of the rebuilding.
THE BED!!! By far, one of the most comfortable beds I’ve ever slept in. Very comfortable. And those views of the city? Well at least the views the City itself can offer.
AMENITIES IN THE ROOM: The room had plenty of bed and desk space and lighting. Plenty of chargers. Found an ironing board, iron and hair dryer. What I did not have was a refrigerator so keep that in mind.
NOTE: If you forego housekeeping you’re offered additional hotel points or $ 5 credit to the hotel’s snack shop. A pretty good deal if you can reuse a towel. $ 5 at the downstairs shop gives you a selection between snacks, toiletries, wine, a big assortment of what you’re looking for.
Perhaps this system provides minimal housekeeping needs. I did find for the duration of my three night visit that for two days glassware sat on the floor next to the elevator.
I also found on my departure morning a housekeeping cart — more accurately than «cart» but rather a series of pvc pipes built on wheels. From quick appearances it made me question whether housekeeping had the tools to properly clean the rooms. More importantly the housekeeping staff member using this cart left a clipboard on the cart with room information. Any hotel safety expert will tell you that’s just bad show and a safety no no.
That aside I would definitely recommend Four Points by Sheraton. It’s close proximity to downtown with clean rooms and plentiful amenities makes it a great option for your Tallahassee stay.
Customer services of those hotel employees I interacted with was top notch!

I stayed here while in town on business. The hotel was very clean and the staff was very friendly. The parking lot is well lit and the beds are very comfortable. I will stay here again and recommend it to anyone else as well. Great place.

I am a SPG Gold member and I stay at a lot of Starwood properties. This one does not make the cut.
Pros: comfy bed, location
Cons: breakfast buffet was unorganized, the staff was ok (customer service could be better), the rooms are small
Oh and last but not least… there was a ROACH found crawling on my friends leg in the BED!
I would never recommend this hotel. Period.

I had a great stay… until there was a roach crawling up my leg while I was in bed… not sure if I would ever stay here again.

Very nice, clean and comfortable. Pet Friendly. However they charge a $ 25 fee for the pet, which they did not tell me when I made the reservation, but they charged it anyway. Also my room didn’t have a refrigerator and I was kinda expecting to have one. Aside from that, hotel is pretty great and the staff is very friendly. Briana did my check in, very nice lady. They have a security guard in the parking lot at night to watch the vehicles.
Parking is free but but limited. Wifi is also free and it’s high speed. Gift shop and restaurants on site. Ice machine NOT on every floor, only on odd number floors (good thing I stayed on the 3^rd floor).

We have stayed here 5 times & it is a GREAT hotel! If you can find a room, it is THE place to stay for football games! They even have a shuttle that will drop you off and pick you up at Doak Stadium (although it is all within walking distance).
Rooms are beautiful and very clean. On a recent visit when we were moving our son from one apartment to another we checked in and found that the AC unit was not working properly. They moved our room to the presidential suite! STAY HERE… you will not be disappointed!

Four Points by Sheraton don’t claim to be a luxury hotel, which is 100% true. They do however, treat their guests well and they seem to understand what vacationers and business visitors alike need and want. For instance I like self parking without a fee, free wifi, a good sized pool without overcrowding and good sunlight, decent restaurant on site, enough room in my stay to walk around in my room… I could go on but I think you get the point here. I noticed they have the largest and clearest HD I’ve seen in a hotel in a long time. Extra points on quality.
It’s also in a prime location and has plenty to do. There is a Whole Foods and other fresh markets. For $ 10 you can add a mini fridge;$ 5 for a microwave. It may not be the hands down best hotel but I really have little to complain about.

This hotel has been here for many years and under a different brand, but has undergone a total renovation and it is really nice.
Sure, it has the same strange round footprint that makes the rooms super skinny at the front door and gets wider and has a strange angle for watching television, but in reality the main reason to stay here is the proximity to FSU.
The beds are comfy, the parking is good (be careful on football weekends), the shuttle is convenient, and the small café is pretty good.
The only think that sucks is the MEGA high prices during football games (they literately take the «scalp em» message to their customers with the cost of a room). No matter, if you want to be close, then this is a great place to stay.

Great deal on New Year’s Eve: Two breakfast vouchers, free shuttle service to the downtown festivities and late checkout the next day. All for $ 99 bucks! The bar rocked before and after the midnight fireworks show and Colin, the bar tender, was a superstar. Speaking of stars, the entire staff was incredible, especially Ashlee and Rohail.
The breakfast was fine and the gym was more than adequate and very, very clean as was the room itself and all the common areas.
Although Downtown New Years Eve in Tallahassee was lacking, this place was the perfect location to enjoy friends and make great memories!
