Best Western Fort Myers Waterfront

Not the best experience I’m not gonna write home and tell Grandma about this, I felt as if I was safe on the fifth floor, beautiful view, unlimited hot water. And they had a breakfast parlor right next-door at that fisherman place.

Beautiful views they upgraded us when we checked in an hour early we stayed on the 6th floor it was an extra large room very clean smelled clean beautiful balcony. We brought our own chairs because on the website their chairs did not look comfortable, glad we did that the people at the checkin counter were great, we booked last minute got a great deal. Heather was our server / bartender at three fisherman she has been there since 2005 she was a joy to talk to and made our dining experience great! We will definitely be back. Also the pool was warm and clean.

Very relaxing stay. 6th floor with a beautiful water view.

It’s not worth to pay for breakfast Pool doesn’t work we in maintenance wen we check in they don’t even say anything Very disappointing Room smell so bad molded Reception very rude I was complaining about the smell of room Nothing I can’t do

Our first room, the ac wasn’t working so I asked to switch rooms. It was super easy. Our new room, the ac worked great! Slept with it at 68 degrees. My daughter loved the pool. The restaurant was great.

Only good part about this hotel is you see the water. The rooms are nasty and old. They’re from the 90’s for sure . Stayed here 4 nights and had to beg someone to bring my towels and maybe empty my garbages. Then the maintenance guy starts washing my window and door at 8am and it’s currently 9:23 and he’s still standing outside my room door with a hose and a broom scrubbing the door.. I know for a fact there’s rooms Down the hall that are empty. And he insists on detailing the freaking hallway loud as hell outside my door

This is one of the cleanest and most friendly hotels we have ever stayed at! Nelson the property manager was very accommodating and helpful I highly recommend

Good room, great view!

Hotel itself is old, dilapidated, and tired. Badly in need of a refresh. If you want that going to a rundown New Jersey beach town vibe in the late 1970s, this is the destination for you. This place is unacceptable compared to the competition available in South Florida in 2026. This place needs to close for a season and renovate, because: The location is amazing for Ft Myers. Perfect views from the balcony, easy access to downtown and regionally via car, free parking is an excellent value. Terrific restaurants within walking distance / short drive. The staff service is excellent. Everyone is doing their best to make a quality product from inferior ingredients. And they are doing pretty well! So much potential. So much opportunity wasted because the owners of this building are being cheapskates. This place is giving vibes of "the last puff of a cigar" when it could be so, so much better and probably more profitable for the owners. Bite the bullet, get the investors, get the loan, and fix this place up.

This review is specifically for Ed at the Front Desk who went out of his way to take care of a missed package for me and my mom. He was so helpful, THANK YOU!!!

Ed, the manager was very accommodating and helpful.. He knew things about the area and was helpful about that. And he was friendly. Lisa, our housekeeper won above and beyond to make sure we're comfortable and take care of all needs regarding the room. I could not say enough about lisa. Juanita, the housekeeping supervisor on the other hand was nasty.When asked several questions regarding the room. It was somebody that truly hated her job and and it showed. My wife asked her to clean the room and put fresh towels in there and she got nothing but excuses and nastiness, and I mean nasty. On the other hand lisa our housekeeper, like I said, when above and beyond with all in every request regarding the room. When I go to a best Western anywhere in the country. I want a manager like ed and a housekeeper like lisa. Both were great examples of my expectation when i'm traveling. So Best western take note these two are a shining example for your company and find examples..

My husband and I have stayed here multiple times in the past. We always stay here when we're celebrating a birthday or our anniversary in downtown Ft Myers. This stay was horrible, probably won't be back again. FYI (to the staff), the 2nd floor is NOT a "superior view", that we paid extra for. Not to mention, when I booked the reservation I specifically requested a higher floor room. There were so many issues, including the loud music coming from the room next door, all hours of the night. And the TV in the room only worked part of the time. Do better BW!

Rooms definitely need to be updated. The view is great! The musty smell and the no water pressure in the shower could definitely use a upgrade, also very damp feeling in the rooms and old door on room you could literally see outside with the gap in the door.
