Hampton Inn St. Augustine Downtown Historic District

Historic Charm Meets Concert Convenience in St. Augustine

Modern comfort with a splash of Old Florida charm, the Hampton Inn St. Augustine Downtown Historic District offers a laid-back yet convenient base just minutes from the city’s top entertainment spots. With its cozy rooms, outdoor pool, and on-site seafood restaurant, this hotel blends relaxation with accessibility, perfect for music fans looking to explore the city by day and catch a show by night.

Why Concert-goers love it

This hotel is a favorite for concert-goers thanks to its central location—just a quick drive or rideshare away from popular music venues like the St. Augustine Amphitheatre and The Colonial Oak Music Park. After a show, you’ll appreciate the quiet, comfortable rooms and the soothing outdoor hot tub. While check-in begins at 3:00 PM, the 11:00 AM check-out gives you time to sleep in after a late night. Free WiFi and a 24-hour front desk add to the convenience.

Who this Hotel is great for

Groups of friends who want a reliable and budget-friendly base
Solo travelers ticking off must-see shows
Couples planning a music-filled getaway
Fans looking to unwind in a quieter, historic neighborhood
Budget-conscious music lovers who still want comfort and amenities

Food and Drink Options

Barnacle Bill’s Seafood House, the on-site restaurant, offers a wallet-friendly à la carte breakfast and dinner—ideal for grabbing a bite before or after the show. While the restaurant closes for lunch, it does feature a daily happy hour for pre-show drinks. Though 24/7 room service is not available, the area has several walkable dining options for late-night cravings.

Nightlife Options

While the hotel itself is more about comfort than parties, you're just a short drive or Uber away from downtown bars and lounges where live music and local craft drinks await. After a show, head back to the calm of your room or enjoy a dip in the hot tub under the stars.

What People Say

Guests love the clean, spacious rooms and the friendly staff. Many say it’s a perfect mix of being close to the action without the crowds. The free WiFi and easy parking are also frequently praised, along with the cozy beds that make post-concert recovery a breeze.

Areas for Improvement

Some guests note that the property is not brand-new and the decor feels a bit dated. Also, while the location is close to the historic district, you may need a car or rideshare to reach most venues and nightlife spots. The restaurant being closed for lunch can be a minor inconvenience if you're hanging around midday.

The Bottom Line

A solid choice for concert-goers who want a quiet, comfortable stay near the heart of St. Augustine’s music and nightlife scene.
