The best part about it is the staff. Polite, happy and welcoming. The hotel is old and tired. A lot of construction. The rooms are small and old. The prices are not justifiable in the condition of the property.

We’ve been going to the Don for many years, most often for our wedding anniversary vacation. I like the history and ambience of the classic “pink” Florida hotel. On this trip, our shower had no hot water, but one call to the front desk and maintenance was on it. By the time we returned to our room after dinner, it was fixed. Great staff, good amenities, the Don Cesar is definitely a special place and I highly recommend the entire experience.

I visited this hotel a few weeks ago and absolutely loved it, so I decided to come back with my kids. Although the weather wasn’t ideal for the beach due to the rain, we still had a great time enjoying the pool and discovering some great local restaurants. Looking forward to coming back again with the kids soon!

My recent stay was TERRIBLE at The Don CeSar in St. Petersburg, Florida, which I booked through Expedia as a VIP Access property. As a long-standing Expedia VIP Gold member, I deliberately chose this hotel in order to receive the additional perks and benefits that come with my status. Unfortunately, none of these benefits were honored. Upon check-in, the reception staff was not warm and inviting and informed me that they could not see my VIP Gold membership in their system and therefore could not extend any benefits. I contacted Expedia multiple times in an attempt to resolve this matter, but despite my efforts, no benefits were provided throughout my stay. It is deeply disappointing that a hotel categorized as a VIP Access property would fail to recognize and deliver the benefits that are clearly advertised. This undermines the credibility of Expedia’s VIP program and left me questioning the value of booking through Expedia. The staff at the front desk, especially Isabella needs extra training given the calibre of this hotel!
