Tryp by Wyndham is a hotel in St. Augustine that I think is a hit or miss. My biggest tip: CALL the…read morehotel in advance and have them guarantee you a room away from the road. Otherwise you'll be in a room that is filled with traffic noise. My family stayed on a Sunday night and I booked the room directly from the hotel website. My biggest complaint is the traffic noise. I read a couple reviews about this and requested a room away from the road when I booked. When we got to the hotel they said that every room on the quiet side was occupied. I was upset and asked if a higher floor would be better as they did have those. The staff member assured me that when they placed our room they would have given me the best at that time. We ended up on a second floor room that felt like we were on a drag race strip. This did not help me sleep and I was up most of the night tossing and turning. The room also did not appear to be two queen beds as booked but rather two fulls. Or have hotel beds shrunk and I am just now learning this? It also had a shower instead of a tub which was not good for my toddler to take a bath. This was my mistake for not researching that more as I thought be the photos it looked like they did have them. The room was spacious and came with a mini fridge and microwave. There is free self parking at the hotel. Since the hotel is at least a 15 minutes walk downtown, they offer a shuttle that takes you there although we didn't use it. Overall, I would not stay at this hotel again unless I could be guaranteed a room away from the road. I'm surprised at all of the good reviews on Yelp but maybe they got better rooms or are heavy sleepers.

5 stars for the staff, large rooms and location just outside of downtown. I was a little miffed by…read morethe 4pm check in but in Covid times I guess you want them to take the extra time to clean the rooms properly. The room itself was great. Nice sized, with comfy beds and pillows. The bathroom had me concerned because the sink didn't look like it was cleaned. There was a small chunk of toothpaste in the sink and some spots which made me wonder if the rest of the room had been cleaned thoroughly. There was also a used coffee k cup in the machine and the drip area was wet with old coffee. We mentioned it to the front desk on our way out to dinner and when we returned just before 10pm we were told we could switch rooms. I didn't want to pack and unpack all over again. We declined as we were tired and just wanted to go to sleep. Thank God for the small sink in the main room because that's what we used. In the morning we got up to shower only to find there really wasn't hot water. Two lukewarm showers later we were frustrated and checked out. We weren't asked how our stay was by the front desk so we didn't ask if hot water has been an issue. We won't be staying here again.

So this place has pros and cons. The Pros: location, very…read moreclean, decent comfortable bed. It's been redone with newer flooring, bed, closet, etc. Friendly staff. The Cons: This place will be in trouble in a few years if they don't get on a regular maintenance schedule. One lightbulb was burned out upon arrival. Not a big deal, but a suggestion would be for cleaning staff to have a checklist and give to maintenance maybe daily or weekly when they observe lightbulbs burned out, mold, rusted rods as I observed in my room. The air unit was old and noisy, but it worked. I wonder with the lack of maintenance the true air quality in these rooms, as well. I do want to see this place succeed and would stay again, but in a few years, it would be a hard NO if lack of maintenance made this place decline further.

Stayed here over Memorial Day weekend and while the location was prime for walking around and…read moreexploring, the room we stayed in was less than stellar. First, there is no bathroom door. The toilet is less than 10 feet from where you sleep with no barrier in between. I'm not sure why this isn't disclosed while booking or shown in any photos. I would not have booked here had I known that. Second, the walls are incredibly thin and we heard every single step and breath the people above us took. I specifically requested a 2nd floor room but unfortunately did not get it. Housekeeping only put 2 full sized towels in the room and so we had to request more. Our TV did not work upon arrival and while they did send someone to fix it promptly, the TV system continually displayed ads that took up half the screen and made it tough to actually watch anything. All in all, I would not stay here again or recommend it to anyone I know.

We paid **over $600 for one night**, and unfortunately, we left feeling extremely disappointed. We specifically chose a room with a balcony, expecting that the view would be part of the experience. Instead, the view was largely obstructed by a palm tree, and the homes directly across the street were not particularly well maintained, which made the balcony feel like a wasted upgrade. At this price point, we expected a much better experience overall. If you're willing to pay top dollar, you may want to consider whether the experience actually justifies the cost. For us, it absolutely did not. We'd give our stay a **C-**. In this economy, spending $600+ for one night should feel worth it, and unfortunately, this hotel did not deliver. Extremely disappointing and not worth the money.

We booked this bed and breakfast online and received a confirmation email. The confirmation stated…read morethat we should call if arriving after 6:00 p.m. On the day of our arrival, we were running late and attempted to call multiple times, but there was no answer and no option to leave a voicemail message. I also sent text messages and emails but received no response. While trying to reach someone, I began reading recent reviews and was concerned to see multiple negative experiences reported by other guests. We had not reviewed them beforehand because we had previously stayed at this bed and breakfast and had a wonderful experience. We later learned that the property had recently been sold. When we arrived at the bed and breakfast, there was no one on site to check us in. We continued calling, texting, and emailing without any response. As a result, we were left without accommodations and had to secure alternative lodging at additional expense and inconvenience. Despite not being provided with the reserved accommodations and receiving no communication from the business, we were still charged for the booking. We are requesting a full refund and an explanation for this situation.

Absolutely ZERO service or hospitality. It's marketed as a bed and breakfast. When we asked the…read moreperson who checked us in about breakfast, she literally laughed and said there was none. She told us how to get in the room and then left immediately. The inside seating area in the lobby is blocked off so no one can even use it. Our room was marketed as being on the ground floor with a sofa and wing chairs. We're on the second floor, there is no sofa, and there's something I might call a winged stool. We haven't seen any single employee since we arrived. Our bed wasn't made and towels weren't refreshed overnight. Maybe that's okay at a Motel 6 but at $300 a night or more you should absolutely do better. To get in and out of the inn and your room, you have to enter a code on a keypad which works about 20% of the time. We just let some other guests in because their code wouldn't work on the front door. Bottom line, whoever owns and operates this place has absolutely no sense of hospitality. It's not a bed and breakfast. It's not an inn. it would be generous to describe it as a self-service hostel. Go somewhere else. Anywhere else.

A Stylish Waterfront Escape in the Heart of St. Augustine…read more There's something special about staying in the heart of historic St. Augustine, and AC Hotel St. Augustine takes that experience to another level. This beautiful waterfront property combines sleek, modern European-inspired design with the timeless charm of America's oldest city. The location is fantastic. Sitting along the San Sebastian River, the hotel is within easy walking distance of St. Augustine's most iconic attractions, including St. George Street, Flagler College, Castillo de San Marcos, boutiques, galleries, and an incredible variety of restaurants. You can park your car and simply explore the city on foot. The hotel itself has that polished, contemporary AC Hotels feel--stylish, comfortable, and thoughtfully designed. The staff was exceptionally friendly and welcoming, which always makes a stay feel that much more special. There are plenty of amenities to enjoy, including a beautiful outdoor pool, a well-equipped fitness center, and a conference room that accommodates up to 99 guests. One feature I found particularly unique is the marina and boat launch facility. Guests arriving by boat can actually navigate the waterway and access the hotel, making this a truly distinctive waterfront destination. And for me, breakfast is always an important part of any hotel stay--and the breakfast here does not disappoint. There are plenty of choices and a great way to start the morning before heading out to explore. What I really love about AC Hotel St. Augustine is the balance of modern luxury, waterfront atmosphere, exceptional location, and historic surroundings. Step outside and you're immersed in centuries of history; step back inside and you're surrounded by contemporary comfort. Whether it's a romantic weekend, a getaway with friends, a business trip, or simply a chance to experience St. Augustine in style, this hotel is a wonderful choice. History outside. Modern comfort inside. Waterfront views all around. What's not to love?

The AC Hotel is 7 months old as of July 2026. It's a very nice hotel and worth the rate of…read more$99/night weekdays. Thank you Travelzoo for a great rate. The hotel is modern and the room was spacious for two people. The bathroom door is made from frosted glass that slides back and forth. If you are used to cracking the bathroom door for a nightlight, bring a nightlight from home. Our room faced the parking lot and there is no balcony. The rooms facing the pool have balconies. But they also face partially to an electric distribution operation and partially to a parking lot and perhaps another building under construction. I think the parking lot view worked. And if you're not in the room often, what does it matter? This hotel does allow dogs. We saw several walking with their humans in the lobby. Only one morning did we hear a dog bark on the guest floor. The parking rate is stated at $22, but after taxes it is $25/day. Don't be misled. The elevators going up only work after you hold your keycard to the access pad. Then depress the button for the floor of choice. The hotel automatically closed out our bill after four days. We did not know this until we arrived home 6 days later. We were unable to review the charges for the first 4 days. We did receive a bill for the last three days, which appeared correct. But no way to evaluate the charges of the first part of the stay and still can't even on the bonvoy app. We weren't even told they closed out the bill or why they closed out the bill. The refrigerator would not maintain the temperature of 40 degrees. We often returned to the room to 54 degrees, which was unacceptable to store our medication. We had maintenance look at the refrigerator and were advised to depress the quick cool button. We had to do this at least twice a day. The shower drain was clogged. Maintenance resolved that. The ice maker/water dispenser on each guest floor was appreciated. We were told housekeeping would visit every other day. By the third day the trash needed to be emptied, even though we didn't mind making the bed ourselves. The hotel should consider a community trashcan by the ice maker to assist with the every other day housekeeping issue. Breakfast was $18 and was explained as a European style breakfast. It's a buffet with options including fruit, smoked salmon, prociutto, bagels, cereal, yogurt, scrambled eggs and sausage. We kept saying we will try the breakfast, but there are so many options in STA, that we skipped it. The do have a complimentary coffee station between the breakfast and bar areas that are set up til at least 10:30. My companion had filled his travel mug each morning and that was very nice! We attempted to order dinner in the bar area one evening. We sat at a table after obtaining menus from the bar. We waited 30 minutes and after seeing other hotel guests with food and drinks, no one greeted us or instructed us where to order. We departed and went to a nearby restaurant outside the hotel. The Travelzoo rate, convenience of parking, and proximity to the historic downtown area, made this trip worthwhile.

This place was absolutely perfect for Nights of Lights!…read more We wanted to experience the event in St. Augustine but heard that parking during this time can be a nightmare, so we looked for a hotel or Airbnb within walking distance of the historic downtown area. Most options were either sold out or priced at $800+ per night, so we felt incredibly lucky to find availability at Marker 8 Hotel and Marina for $360/night. The hotel was wonderful. The staff was warm, friendly, and welcoming. They greeted us with big smiles, provided a map of the town, and even offered restaurant recommendations. The location, though, was definitely the highlight. The hotel sits right next to the bridge that leads directly into downtown. They even have a private gate that opens onto the walkway, making access incredibly convenient. We loved being able to stay in a quiet, uncrowded area while still being just a short walk (1/2 mile) from all the excitement. Parking was also a positive experience. We arrived around 3:30 p.m., and the lot was mostly empty, allowing us to park right in front of our room. By around 8 p.m., the lot did fill up, so guests arriving later may want to be mindful of that. Our room was very clean, and the king bed was super comfy. Some of the furniture, particularly the bathroom shelving, was a bit dated, but everything was well-maintained and spotless, so we had no complaints. One of our favorite features was the beautiful view from the patio. The sunset from our room was breathtaking! Our room faced the marina, so we loved walking out to the pier to see the boats and watch the sea life in the water. The weather was perfect, so we took full advantage of exploring the marina area. Overall, we loved this hotel and would absolutely return. The location could not have been better for enjoying Nights of Lights.
