Simple, modern suites-hotel in downtown St. Petersburg
The five-story Staybridge Suites St. Petersburg is situated on the edge of downtown St. Petersburg, neighboring a green and grassy park and the interstate. The interiors are bright and modern, with simple, contemporary furniture and lots of natural light courtesy of large windows. The airy lobby is a big open space with a limestone fireplace at its center, which helps to separate the cozy living room area from the spacious, high-ceilinged dining area and breakfast room. The living room features modern couches and seating centered around a large window. Vibrant artwork enlivens the mostly gray space, as do fresh bursts of potted bamboo plants flanking a wide flat-screen TV. The dining area is illuminated by a huge window and comprised of a collection of black tables and pale yellow chairs on a geometric patterned rug, as well as an ottoman couch lining one of the walls. The spaces have an eye for contemporary design, with sleek and clean lines, and pops of color thanks to bold paintings adorning walls throughout the hotel.
An outdoor courtyard dotted with a handful of palm trees has several umbrella-shaded seating options and a lovely heated pool and patio. A barbecue grill area is often host to social events aimed at allowing guests to mix and mingle, such as the hotel’s happy hour several times a week. The inviting atmosphere attracts a variety of guests who don’t mind being a tad removed from the heart of downtown (the hotel provides a free downtown area shuttle). Business travelers value the convenient location right off of the interstate and availability of meeting and conference rooms, as well as a business center. Families are attracted to the heated outdoor pool and well-equipped kitchenettes in every room, which also suit extended stays.
