Avalon Hotel Downtown St. Petersburg

This is a well-renovated vintage motel. We loved the art-deco motif, special shout-out to the Dane Shue/Vogue-Astronaut art in the lobby. The sister hotel next door (The Hollander) had great bar specials and a full menu. They had activities for guests, the turn-out for the Sunday afternoon pool party was amazing. Free Champagne at the Avalon Sunday evening. Free bottled water for guests was a nice plus. Very close to downtown St. Petersburg, the waterfront, the pier, the art museum, the restaurants and pubs, all within walking distance. But, the hotel is tucked away on 4th Ave, so it is not in the middle of the late night festivities. The bed was comfortable, the staff friendly, and the entire place was very clean. Monday was Martini night!

Walking up was awesome! Such a fun retro atmosphere. Check in was fast , easy , and friendly. Our suite was awesome , with the best terrace, as it looked over 4th ave. Room was clean , comfy , and spacious. All the amenities you could need to stay for a week or a month. We came for a show at Janus Live ( 4 blocks away) , Uber was easy and so was walking. The sister hotel nextdoor has great food and drinks and a pool!! Super great experience and look forward to staying again. Plus there is a grounds cat ( whether grounds knows or not) that is super friendly and awaiting pets!!

The location was amazing. The staff was so nice. At first they put us in a room right off, lo which was pretty much a closet. It was so small in the bathroom you had to close the door to go to the bathroom. They did upgrade us to a suite which was more room, but the bathroom was just so incredibly small, but not as small as the first room. The restaurant and pool were very nice as well

I liked the vintage, artistic coziness when walking into the lobby area. The staff is amazing and informative. The restaurant was located at the adjoining Hollander hotel next door and the food was great with lots of delicious options. Pool and bar area was amazing during happy hour. The images of the Avalon hotel that I saw online prior to our stay were exactly as the pictures showed. Beautiful hotel and I will be back.

The location was truly excellent — close to everything and could easily walk to restaurants and cafes. Despite the hotel being fully booked, it was very quiet. Having a parking space was a huge convenience. The service was friendly, and our room was clean and spacious. We were three women on vacation and felt safe staying on the ground floor. If I come back, I will definitely stay here again. Thank you!
