Benchmark, Gulf Coast hotels

"This quirky hotel is located in a quiet area just a short walk away from all the action. We highly recommend the Sunday brunch at Compere Lapin, it was delicious! "

"Although not on the beach, the hotel still has fabulous beach and city views. A quick walk or tram ride gets you to a very nice beach. There is a solid restaurant on the beach, and great eating options on site for breakfast, lunch, and dinner. Staff was friendly and attentive. In room towel service was a 3 or 4 out of 5, and the room and hallways were frigid. These are our only two "complaints". Valet crew was fabulous. Jeff, our breakfast waiter, was awesome. "

"I’m glad they have upgraded the hotel and rooms ! Much better ! "

"Hidden gem! This resort was perfect for our family of 4. We enjoyed having separate bedrooms and bathrooms, a full sized kitchen and (even though it was too cold this time of year) the pool looked beautiful! I was apprehensive about having no self parking and having to call for a ride each time we needed to leave, but the bell service was prompt! "
