This is a great place to stay! It is clean, quiet, well-kept and offers delicious continental breakfast! My husband and I loved that it is close to the beach and town. We were also given an extremely warm welcome by the receptionist - a lovely Latina/Hispanic woman whose name we unfortunately never caught, and who gave us all the information about the facilities and the area. We highly recommend this hotel looking to stay in yhe area and will be returning ourselves.

My partner and I stayed here for our small vacation in St. Pete. The front desk service was great. Gave good suggestions on restaurants in the area. Room was clean and spacious. Will stay here again if we return to the area.

Super nice people, cool historic hotel. Call direct to the front desk and skip online! I had a special situation and there was no help online. The lady at the desk was able to accommodate my needs and my stay was awesome as a result. I’ll definitely send friends and my customers for day trips in St.Pete!

I can’t say enough nice things about this hotel. From check-in to breakfast to our room. It was perfection. We were very happy with everything. The room is charming and tastefully, decorated and simple. No flash, no glitter. Just what we were looking for. it reminded us of a time long ago and yet it had all the modern amenities of now. We will definitely be looking to stay here again anytime we are in town. The information provided on the email before we arrived gave us everything we needed for a check in so that we could go right to our room. An awesome idea! Thank you so much!

I have been trying to find this location since I’ve first stayed in it back in 2017. It was a hidden gem through a third party site which my now husband found. I’ll just say the stay was absolutely the best even though it was short lived, we used it as a one night stay after our late flight into Tampa. The room was nice and cool and roomy. The breakfast was absolutely the best. The staff was very friendly and accommodating. If the opportunity comes again to stay in St Petersburg we will most likely stay there again.

Opened over a century ago as a winter home playground for the filthy rich, this place is simply charming. Many celebrities stayed here, including Babe Ruth and Marilyn Monroe. The staff is unbelievably kind and welcoming. The rooms are quite clean and quiet, and in the mornings the smell of maple bacon wafts through the corridors. They have a lovely butterfly garden, and a spacious veranda that gives a nice view. To stay at this place is a real treat, and I plan on staying there again down the road! My highest recommendation!

My daughter and I stayed here in late June. We both loved it. Our room did have a slope to the floor but it is over 100 years old and on the 3rd floor. It took some getting used to. The location is great, so close to treasure island and not far from downtown. Breakfast was fresh and excellent. Coffee served near the lobby is delicious. Staff was so friendly, the woman at the front desk was beyond helpful. We loved our stay and will be back again.
