The Spotlight on The Ponce St. Augustine Hotel

Riverside Comfort Close to St. Augustine’s Music Scene

Modern comfort meets old-town charm at The Ponce St. Augustine Hotel, a pet-friendly spot overlooking the scenic San Sebastian River. Just over a mile from the historic Castillo de San Marcos and a short drive from local music venues, this laid-back hotel offers a relaxed stay with easy access to the city’s cultural heart. With free parking, a 24-hour front desk, and an outdoor pool, it’s a convenient base for a concert-filled getaway.

Why Concert-goers love it

Music fans appreciate the hotel’s central location in the historic district—it’s only a few minutes’ drive to downtown venues and nightlife. The free on-site parking makes coming and going after a show easy, and the 24-hour front desk is a bonus for late-night returns. Rooms are equipped with microwaves and fridges for post-show snacks, and the peaceful riverside setting makes it easy to unwind after the encore.

Solo travelers following their favorite band will feel safe and welcome.
Couples can make a romantic weekend of it with riverside views and nearby restaurants.
Fans seeking a quiet crash pad will appreciate the calm location just outside the bustle.
Budget-conscious concert-goers get great value with free WiFi, parking, and in-room kitchen perks.

Food and Drink Options

While the hotel doesn’t have an on-site restaurant, each room offers a microwave, fridge, and coffee maker—perfect for quick bites or reheating leftovers. There are plenty of local eateries within walking or short driving distance, and with downtown just minutes away, you’ll have no trouble finding late-night food after a show. Enjoy a leisurely breakfast in bed or head out to nearby cafés for a post-concert brunch.

Nightlife Options

Downtown St. Augustine is just a short ride away and full of live music bars, cozy pubs, and rooftop lounges. Whether you’re into indie rock or acoustic sets, you’ll find something close by. The hotel itself is quiet, great for those who want to party out and rest easy back at base.

What People Say

The friendly staff and free parking are consistent highlights, along with the outdoor pool as a nice bonus. Travelers also appreciate the easy drive to both concert venues and historic attractions.

Areas for Improvement

Some guests note that the hotel is a bit dated in decor, and the soundproofing between rooms could be improved. It’s not a luxury stay, but for the price and location, most agree it’s a solid pick.

The Bottom Line

For concert-goers looking for a convenient, comfortable, and affordable stay in historic St. Augustine, The Ponce St. Augustine Hotel hits the right note.

Pleasant - 3.0 out of 5

Jeremy, St Augustine, visiting Francis Field Saint Augustine Tue, 17 September 2013

Overall it was a convenient location considering the short walking distance to the venue (Francis Field). Other than the train tracks right behind the room, the air conditioner kept turning off and on every 5-10 minutes which was quite annoying for a light sleeper, even after numerous drinks throughout the night prior to sleeping. I'd definitely stay there again but make sure I was not facing the train tracks where the noise from it wasn't so apparent.

Liked: Close to concert venue.
Disliked: Train tracks literally right behind hotel room on other side of parking lot; A/C issues.

Poor - 1.0 out of 5

Bob S, Fort White Mon, 30 July 2012

We checked in around 4:00pm. We were right away eaten up by fleas. We were leaving for concert at 5:00 and told the desk. They said they would spray while we were gone. Returned at midnight and were bitten by fleas all night. In the two rooms next to ours, the people were coming and going all night until about 3:30 in the morning, as well as yelling and just plain noisy. The worst hotel experience I've had in 40 years.

Liked: Friendly staff.
Disliked: Nasty room; fleas; noisy people; railroad tracks right by the hotel.
