Tampa Marriott Westshore Hits a Home Run With Fans of the New York Yankees

TAMPA, FL--(Marketwired - Jan 23, 2015) - Hitting the beach in the morning and watching a Yankees game in the afternoon may sound impossible, but it's a reality for guests of the Tampa Marriott Westshore this spring. In addition to features like an indoor/outdoor pool and easy access to shopping, nightlife and picture-perfect beaches, this premier destination is less than three miles away from the George M. Steinbrenner Field where the New York Yankees heat things up during Spring Training.

Just as the Yankees enjoy a reputation as one of the best teams in the world, Steinbrenner Field is considered one of the finest facilities in the country. The field was built to resemble the old Yankee Stadium, which ensures all the authenticity of New York with all the sunny advantages of Florida. And this season, with games against teams like the Nationals, Red Sox, Orioles and more on the calendar, tickets for the limited seats promise to go fast.

And speed, whether it's in a pitch or the drive time to the stadium, is of the utmost importance to devoted fans. That's why the Tampa Marriott Westshore is a top choice among hotels near Steinbrenner Field. Not only is it just 2.7 miles away from all the Spring Training ballgames guests want to cheer on, but it's close to many other top attractions. WestShore Plaza Mall and International Plaza Mall, for example, are just a short walk or shuttle ride away. And the nearby Busch Gardens and Florida Aquarium provide family-friendly entertainment as well.

As one of the most comfortable hotels near the Tampa Airport, the property also caters to business travelers. Guests find themselves ideally positioned within the heart of the Westshore business district, while the hotel's 13,000 square feet of meeting space feels both professional and vibrant. And with the airport just six miles away, guests can squeeze in a little vacationing -- whether it's a baseball game or some fun in the sun -- before catching a flight home. The Tampa Marriott Westshore, in other words, simply hits it out of the park when it comes to creating the perfect stay.
