St. Francis Inn - Saint Augustine - A historic 1791 bed & breakfast with courtyard gardens, daily gourmet breakfast, and evening social hour in the Historic District

Dating back to 1791, this St. Augustine hotel offers spacious rooms and suites featuring private bathrooms, antique furnishings, and modern amenities like central air conditioning and cable TV. The property centers around a walled Spanish-style courtyard with a temperature-controlled swimming pool, fountained pond, and tropical gardens. Daily perks include a gourmet buffet breakfast with two hot entrées, afternoon social hour with beverages and appetizers, and nightly homemade desserts. Located in the Historic District's 144-square-block area, the St. Francis Inn sits among 29 buildings listed on the National Register of Historic Places. The property provides easy access to landmarks like the 1600s Castillo de San Marcos and the González-Alvarez House, with restaurants and shops within walking distance along brick-paved St. George Street.

Pros

Private balconies and porches overlook award-winning gardens

Complimentary bicycles available for exploring downtown

Several rooms feature two-person whirlpool tubs and fireplaces

Evening social hour includes free beverages and appetizers

Cons

Some rooms are smaller than standard hotel rooms

Bathrooms in certain historic rooms have limited space

“St. Francis Inn distinguishes itself with unique two-room suites that feature whirlpool tubs and other romantic touches; plus, its pet-friendly policy sets it apart. I admire the inn's dedication to providing guests with customized recommendations for local dining and entertainment; the complimentary access to local attractions is also a nice perk. A charming, historic option in St. Augustine.”
