Quaint boutique hotel. Very clean. Cordial staff. Great location. We will stay there again.
Every time my wife and I visit St. Pete, we always try to stay at this hotel. It is close to everything in downtown, parking is free, and the staff is great. Oh, and they serve cookies and coffee in the morning, and champagne and wine at 5 PM every day :)
It’s a beautiful old hotel. The bathroom has a walk-in shower. Larissa, who checked us in, was extremely helpful. She even went to the restaurant in the hotel next door to pick up dinner for us and brought it back to our room. That meant the world to me since I need to use a walker and arrived here worn out after a 10 hour long drive. Kudos to Larissa
Staying overnight at the Avalon is something we do whenever we are visiting the St. Pete area. It’s convenient and close to the Pier and Beach Drive. The rooms are clean but small. The lighting in the room we had was so dim we could hardly see and there was no lighting in the walk in closet which made it difficult to hang up and get clothing.
The staff was VERY kind when I had an issue with losing my phone/wallet. It was returned to the hotel after I checked out and they shipped it to me! SO grateful! Would definitely stay here again.
Avalon was a very quaint place to stay. The room on the first floor was small. Sink was outside the very small bathroom. No refrigerator. Location was great!! We were able to take the free shuttle a block away from Avalon. Make sure to get there early so you can get a secure parking spot. Service was amazing…very friendly people. Would score higher if it were less noisy and the room was a bit bigger/convenient.
Great location and unique hotel! However our room was very very dark and bathroom quite small with no storage, but it is a historic building and everything was clean. Didn’t like that there are no onsite staff past 11 pm. Would stay here again if in St Pete
The service was outstanding. The location is perfect, just a short walk to downtown St. Pete. Plus, the free parking was a huge bonus. The only downside for us was the bed; it wasn’t the most comfortable, but it didn't completely overshadow the great service and location. All in all, a solid choice for anyone visiting the area!
Avalon is so cool! Loved the decor and the staff was very helpful. They have free coffee in the morning! Very nice vibe with a kitty cat that hangs around the front porch.
