Avalon Hotel Downtown St. Petersburg

Avalon Hotel Downtown St. Petersburg

10/10 Excellent
"We absolutely loved the ambience of this hotel. We usually stay at their sister hotel The Hollander, but they were all booked for the Christmas vacation so we stayed at the Avalon. Both hotels are wonderful and the staff is so friendly and helpful. We were able to use all of the amenities at The Hollander which was great. The swimming pool, pool side bar, and restaurant were all just wonderful. Would definitely stay at either hotel in the future and highly recommend both hotels if you find yourself in St. Petersburg Downtown."
