  Drone Concerns

  Dear Fenway Management, Our stay at Fenway was very nice and enjoyable overall. However, I wanted to share a concern about an experience we had while visiting the rooftop bar. While watching the sunset, an influencer was operating a drone and filming around the restaurant for an extended period of time. Although I understand that the rooftop bar is a public space, I found the situation uncomfortable and intrusive. The drone was flying in various directions and appeared to be focused on filming guests rather than the scenery. The noise from the drone was also distracting and took away from what should have been a relaxing experience. I called for the manager to discuss my concerns, but I was informed that the individual would not be asked to stop. While I respect that the person may have had permission to film, I felt that the comfort and privacy of guests were not adequately considered. Had we been informed in advance that drone filming would be taking place, we could have chosen to dine elsewhere and enjoy the sunset without the disruption. I wanted to bring this to your attention in the hope that you will review your policies regarding drone use in guest areas. I believe many guests visit the rooftop to enjoy the atmosphere and views, and the presence of a drone can significantly impact that experience. Thank you for taking the time to consider this feedback. I appreciate your attention to the matter and look forward to hearing your thoughts.

  A perfect weekend staycation.

  My husband and I live near Dunedin (Palm Harbor) and thoroughly enjoyed a much-needed two-day staycation over the July 4th weekend at The Fenway. We’re longtime locals with an appreciation for this landmark building. I’m aiming this review at people like me who may have overlooked this place as one you can enjoy, not just for a special-occasion stay, but also as a walk-in for a reasonable brunch, nice dinner or a drink with friends in a nicer venue where you can mostly choose your price-point. The Fenway got the beautiful, modernized renovation it deserved while keeping its relaxed, mid-20th c. retro character. We’re delighted to find out that the food and service match the quality of the space. This luxury hotel is not at all pretentious; the very casual “Funedin” vibe lives here too. Our water-view room was very clean and comfortable. Spectacular sunset views. Housekeeping staff are great. Given that we know The Fenway’s rooms didn’t originally have en-suite bathrooms in 1927, the renovation’s upscale walk-in shower and bath are very nice after a thoughtful renovation. Plus, the room has the most comfortable hotel beds I’ve ever slept on. (Really.) The staff are friendly and attentive and seem to enjoy working here; some for years. Most are knowledgeable about the history of the place and take pride in it. Our dinner at HEW Chophouse was exceptional. Our server Emily took great care of our party. I suggested to our younger, local family guests that HEW would be a cozy place to share a charcuterie board and a drink, then go upstairs to Hi-Fi, the Fenway’s rooftop bar with a terrific view of sunsets on St. Joseph Sound. Saturday brunch was the same: great food with multiple price points and attentive, friendly service . My delicious, choose-your-own-omelette with sourdough toast, grits and fresh berry jam was within just two or three dollars of our favorite local diner — and a superior meal all around. Great place for a special stay, a sunset or a better brunch. Recommended.
