The property is well kept for a building built in the 1930’s. The space is a bit crammed, but somewhat charming. The staff is amenable, courteous and helpful. Location is convenient in respect to nearby attractions.

The Inn on Third was an oasis in the middle of a busy city; away from the hustle and bustle but close to all the major activities, restaurants, and pubs. The rooms were clean, the continental breakfast had fruits, cereal,pastries and more. The complimentary glass of wine in the afternoon was a nice touch. Complimentary parking on the Inn's grounds was available. Overall, a comfortable stay.

Do yourself a favour and stay here if you are in St. Pete’s! Absolutely adored our stay at the Inn on Third. The location was easy to reach, parking for the hotel was amazing and the hotel itself was lovely! Really amazing decor style, and the property itself was well taken care of. The staff are phenomenal, Brian was amazing, super helpful about everything in the local area and couldn’t have done more to make our stay as pleasant and memorable as possible! A brilliant hotel with amazing staff, I would 100% stay again if I’m in the area.
