Tucked into a small building along Beach Drive in downtown St Petersburg, this charming hotel is a short walk to some of the area's best bistros and shops close to tranquil Tampa Bay. Built in 1924, this Spanish Mission-style edifice underwent an extensive renovation and is listed on the National Registry of Historic Places. With only 18 luxurious rooms, the historically accurate boutique inn highlights a 1920s ambiance with modern-day amenities, which include elegant décor, plush linens, over-sized bathrooms and complimentary daily breakfast. The award-winning Birch & Vine, one of the best restaurants in town, features fine dining and an ample wine menu, while the Canopy Rooftop Lounge offers sweeping views to go with a diverse menu, signature cocktails and large wine and beer selection.
