2/10 Terrible

Tiny bathroom - you might hit your head on the sink trying to wipe. Shower had less water pressurre than my 90 y/o grandpa trying to take a leak. Got a $55 ticket trying to drop off my luggage!!
Zarina, 1-night trip

4/10 Poor

The bathroom is very uncomfortable
Jose Miguel, 2-night trip

10/10 Excellent

An absolutely quaint boutique property that has wonderful staff. Ariel was extremely helpful and friendly, offered fantastic rest recommendation. Check-in was smooth, slept great.
Sean, 1-night trip

8/10 Good

Unique property in an excellent location. Hotel was within walking distance to many shops and restaurants as well as the Pier. Bed was comfortable and room was clean. The bathrooms are small (we had to move to a different room as the first room’s shower did not work). Staff was friendly and accommodating. Bar and outdoor seating were a nice perk for a small hotel. The history alone makes this hotel a fun place to stay. Parking garage is a little bit of a walk, and Google maps does not lead you to the correct place when you enter the garage address; so listen to the hotel staff when they give your directions! Overall this was a great stay for the price on the holiday weekend!

10/10 Excellent

Great, clean hotel with very welcoming and friendly staff

10/10 Excellent

Location was perfect for walking to many places on the area. We had after hour check in which we had no issues with.
Tara, 2-night trip

4/10 Poor

Front desk had no staff member. Had to stand and wait in the very small lobby for someone to check us in. Staff was unfriendly and rude
jillian, 1-night trip

10/10 Excellent

Very nice staff, good location, and overall cute property. Beds were very uncomfortable and blinds did not cover the window spaces, so it was bright early.

Nice hotel but construction next door

Hotel was nice and very clean , but there was construction of their new hotel expansion next to us and the view was not nice. While it's a historic hotel the bathtub was difficult to get in because is antique. I also wish they had a morning coffee and pastries in the morning . Nice place though.

Barry, 1-night trip

4/10 Poor

Really old building. Not comfortable at all.
Jane, 1-night trip

6/10 Okay

The property is an old hotel, which is quite quaint. They have a coffee/liqueur bar in the lobby that attracts youngish folks. The room was a nice size, although the bathroom was small, typical of an old hotel. It had a claw-foot bath tub. There was very low water pressure at the bathroom sink and absolutely no hot water. The complimentary parking is in a garage about a block and a half from the hotel.
Steven, 1-night trip

2/10 Terrible

Room was tinny, shower barely functioning, no TV service, no amenities, expensive for accommodation and location
Darinka, 3-night trip

2/10 Terrible

The property is in the process of renovation. All windows were blocked. It doesn't provide any housekeeping, and you have yo take out your own trash.
Michael, 4-night trip

10/10 Excellent

The Cordova is a great hotel, it has a nice old world feel with all the modern conveniences that you might need. I found everything clean and the area quiet. The staff are friendly and very helpful. I’m looking forward to staying there again whenever I visit Tampa or St. Petersburg area

Beautiful Kitchy Hotel

The Cordova is a beautiful hotel in downtown St Pete. The staff was very friendly, the rooms were pretty and well decorated.
Mark, 2-night trip

8/10 Good

Me and my boyfriend were very comfortable at the Cordova in. It was very cozy and we felt safe. It was worth the price. The Bar was supposed to be open 8am-😭10pm but when we woke up on Sunday at 10am the bar still wasn’t open and we were looking forward to their coffee :/. Their front porch was very nice everything was clean. Very close walkable distance from and very nice AMC theater, Ruth’s Chris, a lot of other bars and liquor stores. I would definitely recommend and stay again!

Timothy, 3-night trip

4/10 Poor

The property was old and tired no Elevator so be prepared to walk three stories. Staff was not friendly. There was mold in the bathroom along the tub area. Mattress was in poor condition. No room darkening curtains very noisy spot. Would not stay there again.
Christopher, 2-night trip

10/10 Excellent

Historic and interesting place, amazing front porch…not a run of the mill chain hotel
david, 2-night trip

10/10 Excellent

This property was built in 1912... before elevators and central AC was thing...wink, wink. The 3 flights of stairs weren't as daunting after we lugged the luggage up them and the AC wall unit kept it pretty cold. They are expanding and I'm sure the newer section will have all the modern bells and whistles. Parking is around the corner, but it is free for hotel guests...so there's the win there. Would I stay again? Yes! The price was right, the property's cute with a nice vibe, the staff was wonderful, and the location is in the heart of a bustling night life that's extremely walkable. Enjoy!!
Leila, 2-night trip

2/10 Terrible

Staff couldn’t care less about any of it visitors. Rooms are dirty. Certainly would not recommend.
