St. Johns County Hotels with Bars

Summer in the Nation's Oldest City starts here. Holiday Inn Express St Augustine - Historic sits just across the Bridge of Lions, a one-kilometer walk (0.6 miles) to the cobblestone heart of downtown. Settle into reliable comfort from our Davis Shores location, a short walk or drive to the Historic District but without the downtown crowds. Enjoy free hot Express Start breakfast, an outdoor pool, fast Wi-Fi, and guaranteed onsite parking in our secure, well-lit lot for $10 per night. Wake to sunny skies and stroll to 450 years of living history: the Castillo de San Marcos, Flagler College's Gilded Age campus, St George Street shops and cafes, the Old City Gates, Fountain of Youth Archaeological Park, and the St Augustine Lighthouse a short drive away. When the heat rises, trade colonial streets for sugar sand. St Augustine Beach, Anastasia State Park, and Vilano Beach are minutes away for swimming, paddleboarding, sunrise walks, and dolphin-watching cruises from the bayfront. Make us your May through August base camp: free Music by the Sea at the Pier, the St Augustine Music Festival in June, Fourth of July fireworks over Matanzas Bay, and — as the closest hotel to The Amp (1.3 miles) — prime seats for James Taylor, Dierks Bentley, The Black Keys, and more. History by morning, beach and music by afternoon.
