Looking for one last summer escape without the hassle of airports or long drives? The Hollander Hotel in downtown St. Pete (421 4th Ave N) offers everything you need for the perfect St. Pete staycation. With summer in full swing, few places provide a better escape, with the cool and comfortable Tap Room inside and the beautiful pool and patio outside.<\/p>\n

Featuring eclectic d\u00e9cor (think comfy leather couches, funky metal sculptures, and even an old telephone booth), a spacious outdoor patio, and a sparkling pool that ties it all together, the Hollander blends classic charm with a local-first vibe. With its downtown location and blend of relaxation and local charm, it\u2019s the perfect home base for a weekend staycation to explore everything St. Pete has to offer.<\/p>\n

Another favorite local tradition takes place poolside every Saturday morning. At 8:30 am, The Body Electric Yoga Company hosts poolside yoga, a long-running partnership that\u2019s been bringing the community together since 2016. Locals roll out their mats for a morning flow beside the water, then stick around to make the most of the setting. Yogis can enjoy a complimentary mimosa with the purchase of breakfast, making it one of those laid-back local rituals that perfectly captures the Hollander vibe.<\/p>\n

Stay within walking distance from everything!<\/p>\n

One of the biggest perks of staying at the Hollander is its location. Spend the weekend exploring downtown on foot as you\u2019re minutes from Beach Drive\u2019s waterfront restaurants and bars, the world-famous The Dal\u00ed Museum, the Museum of Fine Arts, waterfront parks, local breweries, shopping, and live music at Jannus Live.<\/p>\n

The pool scene (and parties!) locals love<\/p>\n

The Hollander\u2019s outdoor pool area stretches across more than 130 feet and is filled with sun loungers, tables, and cabanas available to book for special occasions (or just to make sure your friends have a home base for the day). The lush outdoor space is ideal for afternoons spent soaking up the sun with a cocktail in hand\u2014and on Sundays, you don\u2019t even need a room key to enjoy it.\u00a0<\/p>\n

The Hollander hosts its famous pool parties every Sunday from 1 p.m. to 6 p.m., and they\u2019re always free to attend. The scene features a DJ playing tunes, inflatable beach balls in play, and people talking, lounging, and tanning while tropical cocktails and the best club sandwich in town are served poolside. Pool party season kicks off this Sunday, March 1, with the hotel celebrating the spring in true poolside style.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Good times are always flowing from the Hollander\u2019s HH20 Pool Bar, which includes a fully stocked liquor bar, craft beers on tap, and food served straight from the kitchen inside. In a setup designed for relaxation, you can order lunch and grab another round without ever leaving the pool deck.<\/p>\n

Delicious food and great pours in the Tap Room<\/p>\n

Inside the hotel, the Tap Room at the Hollander is a full-service restaurant that\u2019s open for breakfast, lunch, and dinner seven days a week. Known for its tender filet mignon, fresh grouper nuggets, and cheesy Cuban quesadilla (trust us!), the Tap Room pairs a welcoming atmosphere with a menu that\u2019s earned a loyal following. And don\u2019t forget to save room for dessert\u2014the hotel\u2019s bakery case is known for its drool-worthy selection of pastries and cakes, proudly served alongside locally roasted Kahwa coffee.\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\n

On Thursdays, locals can take advantage of the \u201cWe \u2665 Locals\u201d discount, which offers 25% off at the Tap Room, making it an easy choice for a midweek meal downtown.\u00a0<\/p>\n

A hub for locals, food, and friends<\/p>\n
