Stopped in for a drink and it's such a cute and cozy place with bar seating, tables, couches, and patio.Great service and cocktails. Felt very welcomed and at home even though we weren't staying there.Loved walking around and looking at all the history of the hotel. The Dali art book was so fun to look through while enjoying our drinks. Reasonable prices. The coffee smelled amazing.

Love this little gem! There’s always friendly people at the bar and the service is top notch. I’ve had Sydney make some of the best cocktails I’ve ever had each time I visit! Consider yourself lucky if you go when it’s her shift! Highly

Visited The Scott inside the entrance of The Cordova Inn before starting my day in downtown St. Pete recently and chose a latte from their menu. It was fantastic coffee with fresh ingredients. I'll be visiting again for the perfect start to the day. Nice to have a local cafe within walking distance from Williams park.

This is one of the only other places I've been gate keeping for a little while. The Scott is one of my favorite hotel bars in st Pete. It's a small bar that only seats like 15-20 people inside the Cordova inn and I haven't been since they started renovations so some photos may be out of date.But I absolutely love the vibes in here of a boutique hotel bar with an interesting menu. They deck it out for Xmas as a winter wonder land. Favorite drink by far is The Scott which is a take on an old fashion. The Cynar sour is interesting and showcases Cynar which is an artichoke aperitif. Also making a killer Negroni and bees knees. Really love this place and 5/5 would recommend to a friends! Can't wait to see if when the remodel is done!

This hidden hotel bar is an ABSOLUTE gem!! My friends and I love coming here, I’m sure a trip here would be a great vacation. Bartender Eli is so good at mixing it up and creating great drinks for everyone’s palate. Also makes a STELLAR dirty martini- a staple in my book. Not too hard on the eyes either!

My friends and I came for a weekend trip to celebrate a birthday and we had a great time! The hotel was in a great location and walking distance to everything we wanted to do down town. Kimberley checked us in and was awesome!! She was very accommodating, friendly, and gave us great advice on places to check out. The barista/bartender, Eli, was also amazing! He as well was efficient, friendly and gave us some great recommendations as well. I will definitely be coming back to this hotel for our future local getaways!

My friends and I were having a fun St. Pete day on Saturday and stumbled upon The Cordova Inn and I'm so glad we did! The bar was so cute and welcoming and Sydney was the best! My friend was looking for a specific cocktail and Sydney was patient and creative with the ingredients she had available and made a fantastic drink! My Vesper was also textbook and hit the spot! We loved all of the old photos on display in the lobby and bar area and Sydney shared so much information about the pictures and the historic preservation of the Inn. It was really a wonderful experience and I wanted to be sure to give Sydney a symbolic pat on the back for taking such great care of us!

What a great place to grab a cocktail and find a nook to converse. I was here with a Meetup so there was a cackle of us kibitzing and Eli was pouring some delicious cocktails. The two I had were vodka based. I forget the name of the first one that was a recommendation when I mentioned vodka and the second was an espresso martini. I highly recommend it if you are looking for a space with some intimacy and authenticity.

Awesome spot for happy hour (Mon-Thur 5-7, all cocktails $10) and great place for a date! The Coffee Pot martini is expertly prepared and delicious! Bartenders are super friendly and accommodating. I'm quickly becoming a regular here.

Room was booked for a music festival in Vinoy Park. Such a great location! Absolutely loved the older style of the building ♥️ Tub is awesome! Yeah there's no elevator (I knew this prior to booking) but maybe it's your sign to get some exercise. We’re kinda meant to be moving the body beyond comfort sometimes… ;))) But the staff is what definitely makes this place quite special♥️ Kayla, Kim and Joshua were absolutely amazing! Thank you so much for everything! Till next time!!! ?

We were in town with our 3 year old who had to have a surgery at John Hopkins (a few blocks away) The staff (particularly Kayla) was amazing. They were beyond accommodating and empathetic to our situation. Aside from that, the hotel was wonderful - a very cool experience in a great area in downtown St. Pete We will be coming back for sure!

I came down for work, such a cozy lobby to get some work down. The amazing atmosphere is sure to be a big factor when I come back down. So glad I found a new spot to come and stay at! They had the best iced coffee and cocktails. The staff was friendly and helpful. Highly recommend!

Wonderfully chill but elegant cafe inside of the Cordova Inn downtown. I spent a couple hours working on my computer there on a Monday morning. Very quiet atmosphere with the occasional person being checked with the concierge. I enjoyed a latte and also a Gouda sandwich. The latte was quality. The sandwich was very simple. Came with some fruit on the side. Would've liked a back on my stool while sitting at the window but still enjoyed myself while working.

Very cool spot down in S.t Pete. It's an old Inn [Cordova Inn] renovated to a cocktail bar/ Café with a small lunch /brunch menu. Also, with the option to stay. I liked the Italian panini [choice of 3].

I can’t recommend this hotel highly enough. It’s a beautiful space convenient to the Pier and all the downtown attractions in St Pete. It’s elegant, comfortable, and beautifully appointed. But the best element of my stay were Kayla and Sydney. They were so helpful and hospitable, and made the stay really special.
