Staybridge Suites Ft. Lauderdale-Plantation

I’ve come here more than once and each time I’ve had an amazing time. The staff is always great. Very friendly. From check in to check out. No hassle. The rooms are a great size. I was in a one bedroom suite that had a queen size bed, Full kitchen, A sitting area with a couch, desk and small table. In the kitchen there’s a dishwasher full-​size fridge, microwave, stove top and they also supply you with utensils, cups, plates and bowls. There is nice size hd TV with good amount of channels. Did have an issue with the DVD player that was in the room but ended up just using my laptop (not a deal breaker, didn’t even remember the issue when I checked to let the staff know). Bathroom is a good size to move around in. Hot water isn’t too hot though. Hotel offers free breakfast. Breakfast area was clean and well stocked. Will continue to stay here when I’m looking for a little gateway.

I am normally a hotel snob. Had to find a decent prices hotel for long stay while I am relocating. Super nice actually. Dinner provided m-​w. Hot breakfast and free drinks at night. Clean rooms 100 percent and service really Amazing. I would definitely recommend. Ps publix right across the parking lot so I shop there and grill outside. They have three covered grills and a place to eat outside.

Excellent clean hotel. The only complaint I have is that they take a $ 50 deposit on top of the room charges and I was told the authorization would be lifted the day I checked out. I checked out on Sunday, and here it is Tuesday and the deposit is still showing pending on my credit card and the funds are not available to use.

Honestly one of the best hotels I have ever stayed it. It felt more like a studio apartment than a hotel!
The room was very clean and stocked with actual eating utensils to use (no plastics). Also, it came with a little electric cook-​top stove!
The breakfast is very good however I wish they did have a bit more extended hours.
I recommend this place for anyone traveling as a family. You will be very comfortable.

I am somewhere between 3 and 4 stars, right now its 4 and we will see what happens to the requests I asked for. This hotel is for travelers and vacationers planning on staying at least a week or so because they offer ¹⁄₁ bath and 2 bedroom/​2 bath suites that include full kitchen (2 burner stove-​top, no oven) with full fridge with ice-​maker (ours doesn’t work, request#1) micro, all dishes, plates, dishwasher, toaster and coffee pot. It has decent size sitting area with a couch, chair, a dining table with four chairs. each bedroom has dresser, tv, night stands and full bath. There is a beautiful courtyard with a firepit sitting area, bbq grills the guests can use and a nice pool area. the breakfast bar is very good with hot items along with waffle maker and there are plenty of tables to sit both inside and out. I have found everything clean in our rooms, but here is why im wavering between stars. You would think a hotel this nice would have a concierge or a information desk. The pool area was littered with trash from day before, there were not any clean towels and the pool desperately needed cleaning. Some one had a party by the fire pit and left all their bottles scattered and it is now 9:30 and its still there (pool opens at 8am) There is no shuttle van on weekends and they request a 24 hour notice to drive you somewhere? and only within 5 miles? There is not any maintenance people here on weekends to fix my icemaker. So if these problem are not addressed, im dropping stars to 3. They responded quickly to the issues I had and I’m keeping it 4 stars

Absolutely the best place we stayed! Even blew our hotel in South Beach out of the water!
Pros: We booked a room with 2 queens, got there and they didn’t have anymore of those rooms, so the girl said, «We do have this room though! You’ll like it!» We got up there and it was a 2 bedroom (3 beds, 1 king and 2 queens) 2 bathroom suite! Full kitchen and livingroom. It was like an apartment! I would live there if i could! Lol
2. It was an older crowd there, so you didn’t have to worry about anyone being noisy. It was very peaceful.
3. The beds were comfortable.
4. Amazing staff!
Cons:
1. The eggs were nasty. They were hard cubes. Gross. Fake tasting.
2. The toilets weren’t the easiest to flush.
3. They need a bigger sign out front. Hard to find.

If I could give this place 10 stars, I would!
First off, this is one of the only hotels in its area that provides full studio, one and two-​bedroom suites. EACH room came with a full kitchen, which absolutely blew my mind! My husband and I booked a block of rooms for our out-​of-​town guests to stay here for our wedding. We ended up booking over the allotted amount of rooms and, because we brought the hotel so much business, the General and Sales Managers decided that they would accommodate our guests by discounting each room 10%. Not only that, but my husband and I reserved a two-​bedroom suite (so that my bridesmaids and I could get ready there the day of the wedding), and the Sales Manager discounted our room to the price of a studio room, for bringing them so much business.
If there were any complaints made by my guests, they were handled almost immediately. The staff members are incredibly friendly, accommodating and knowledgeable.

We stayed here for a few night while we were down to see the Rangers play the Panthers. I’m an IHG card holder and the previous stays at this chain have been good. The hotel is a little tough to find and you can drive by it very easily. Check in was no problem, they have no bell hop service, so you’re on your own. We stayed in the suite which was nice and clean and considering it was New Year’s Eve and there were about 70 teenagers that were there for a swimming meet it was very quiet. No problems with any water or any other little thing that might nag you. The breakfast was nice they had everything from eggs, pancakes, waffles to oatmeal, cold cereal, fruit, yogurt, 4 different kinds of juices. Staff and management were pleasant. Close to everything, there’s a Publix and an Anthony’s Coal Pizza right across the street. Overall a nice stay and would come back.

Unacceptable, check in is at 3:00pm, it’s now 5:00pm. Room still not ready. Given the clientele I’ve seen so far I’m not impressed at all. Never again big disappointing..

I stayed there at least 15 – 20 nights this year 2014.
As Platinum member it should have made a difference because the room rate was wrong so when I attempted to get another room the rate was inflated tried to inflate the rate. I declined and left the hotel.
Phone the General Manager to discuss my problem and much to my amazement she displayed an arrogant and condescending attitude came through. Saying I did not understand. I made the reservation. When I asked about what part did she not understand about «the customer is always right» she retorted that she DID NOT BELIEVE IN THAT. While our conversation became contemptuous she ended it be saying and I quote — «THANKS FOR WASTING ME TIME»! That is a direct quote. I drove to a Holiday Inn Express and got a suite for $ 95 per night. Did I miss something? It is clear they have a take it or leave it. As if there are not others to choose from…
Spare yourself the grief and save a dollar to boot.

Stayed here for just one night, but I must say this place was fantastic! The staff was super friendly and helpful, the breakfast was great, and the room was big and roomy. The patio area by the pool is real nice. There is a fire pit with chairs all around, two BBQ’s, in case your staying for a few days with family, and a pretty decent pool. We will defiantly being staying here again!!! :-) if your in town STAY HERE!!!

The good: Nice hotel with a good location, and good breakfast. Nearby shopping including a Publix grocery. Nice pool.
The bad: Slow service at front desk. If I were charging $ 2 for ONE cold pill, I’d be a little quicker to take that $ 2. While I was waiting to hand over $$, but before I gave up waiting, I got to listen to one woman who had tried to check in earlier, but no one was staffing the front desk fight with a woman who had specifically reserved a 2 bedroom suite but was given a «take it or leave it» with a one bedroom suite. Hello? Isn’t the point of reservations to give people what they want?
Also, many of the guests are quite elderly. It might be nice for them if there were a hot tub/​spa in addition to the pool.
Edited to add: I talked to the front desk clerk about my earlier problems, and he comped me for my purchase, so I added a star for willingness to address problems.

This is basically a mini apartment. I got an almost full size fridge, microwave, cook top, plates, glasses, metal silverware, and a dish washer! This place is laid out like many other candlewood suites (owned by same people holiday inn group). Its prefect for a couple days and with family probably. The property looks very well keep and the room’s furniture was very comfy. The location is hard to see when you approach from south, signs in dark colors mixed with medium colors don’t show really well three feet off the ground!
I was a late arrival so this may taint the service part. But remember this is pretty far south, and the pace is really, really, really, really slow. The one person working the counter took about fifteen minute per customer to check in parties. Some off this was the idea of talking to you and starting with someone else at same time. Both people don’t know who she was talking to. Oh yeah, the information from
was either wrong or I moved from Ohio to Bellvue, WA during my flight here. Oh yeah the credit card info was wrong too. The explanation is it happens all the time. Never had a problem any other time.
The room was clean and comfy. All in all worth the $ 100 per night price. Free breakfast until 10:30 on Sunday, standard fare stuff.

Stayed here for 3 months for a work assignment. Pretty solid hotel. They give you breakfast 7 days a week and dinner 3 nights a week (Tu-​Th). Food is average and extremely repetitive at best, but for free not too shabby. Pretty good location, though a bit quite and a car is a must have to get anywhere.

I’ve stayed before and this visit is by far the most disappointing. It is now 6pm and room still hasn’t been cleaned. Housekeeper seems more concerned about her mobile phone than work. I watched housekeeper on phone for a good while each time while rooms remained unattended. I called front desk, 1.5 hours later and still not clean. Too bad cause this use to be a top notch place within this category of hotel.

Staybridge Suties is a great place for extended stay or traveling with familes when you visiting Fort Lauderdale area.
We arrived around 7:30 pm after a long day of shopping to be greeted by the friendly staff at the front desk. She was really nice and helpful and explain to us all the facilities the hotel offer.
Our one bedroom suites is spacious. With full kitchen applicances: stoves, full size dishwashers and fridges, microwaves and cooking utenils (not that I will start to cook when I am on vacations)
There are tons of storage spaces with 2 TVs and a seperate sitting area.
Free use of washing facilities, free WIFI, free full breakfast buffet!
The breakfast area has a self help waffles makers. My pancakes was so tasty, crisp on the outside, nice and tender inside!
Though the place is a little old and need some restoration but it is clean and comfortable.
I would definitely will be back to stay at Staybridge when I am in the area again!
BTW, if you using WIFI, the signals are not as strong on the end units. I will advise you to request a room closer to the lobby or you can go to the front desk and ask for a cable.
