Description
Circa 1873. Strategically located in the center of a city immersed in history, this award-winning inn and restaurant was a former stable. Recently it was locally voted the "best of St. Augustine" and nationally voted one of the "Top 15 inns" for its cuisine. A red-tiled roof, coquina walls, veranda and courtyard add to the Spanish atmosphere. Guest bedrooms boast hand-carved, four-poster beds and high-speed Internet. Some rooms feature Jacuzzi tubs. An expansive daily gourmet breakfast is included. The on-site restaurant is open for lunch and dinner. Unique salads, fresh fish and chicken create the midday menu, while dinner selections boast standards such as Filet Mignon and the more unusual South African Emu or Thai curry entrees.
