Top-rated hotels in Clearwater

Clearwater is a Florida beach destination, and every stay on this list is graded 4-star by the booking supplier. Nine properties make this shortlist, and their addresses cluster tightly: most sit along South Gulfview Blvd and Coronado Drive on Clearwater Beach itself, while the Marriott and Sheraton at 1201 and 1160 Gulf Blvd sit further north on Sand Key and 500 Mandalay Ave and 24 Avalon St sit toward the northern end of the beach.

That spread suits different trips. Gulfview Blvd addresses put you in the thick of Clearwater Beach, good for couples and short breaks who want to walk out to the sand and the strip. Sand Key addresses trade that density for a quieter stretch, which suits families and longer stays. Guest scores range from 4.3 to 4.6 out of 5, with review counts from 215 to 6532, so one hotel is very heavily tested and others are newer to the market.

Getting there and around

According to the site's own notes on Clearwater, each of the 46 places to stay listed for the destination has its own page built from the booking supplier's record, carrying the star class, the guest score where there is one, the facilities and the photographs. No rate is quoted on the pages themselves; availability is instead checked live for your dates and party. Bookings open up on app.impt.io with those dates carried through, with free cancellation on most rooms and a verified amount of CO2 removed on every confirmed booking. The Clearwater list is ordered by guest score, weighted by how many stays sit behind it.
