Top James Wheldon Johnson Park Hotel Reviews

Marriott Jacksonville Downtown

10/10 Excellent

"Very friendly staff. Rooms and lobby have been updated."

DoubleTree by Hilton Hotel Jacksonville Riverfront

10/10 Excellent

"The hotel itself is very nice and it’s obvious it was remodeled recently. The rooms was nice but the bathroom was dated and in some ways dangerous. The tub had signs of being patched and soft spots beneath it where you could feel the plastic sag. More concerning the heavy glad shower doors have no safety stops. I smashed my fingers once quite badly as there is nothing to keep the handle on the sliding door from, Guillotining” your fingers into the adjacent piece of glass. For a small child or inattentive adult this could easily in a severe injure or amputation. Aside from these issues, the bed was comfy, the sheets clean and the room quiet"

Downtown City View Loft

8/10 Good

"We stayed two nights. I think the other reviews were spot on. The unit is on the older side and in a high rise apartment building so you are staying in a until in the same place people live. The check-in process was simple and the communication with the host was fantastic. The room itself, was good, nothing great but nothing bad. Clean, good bed, god water pressure in the shower and plenty of space. The room needs some updating though and using the TV was next to imposable, The remote only worked sometimes. We booked this place so we could attended a Jaguars game and it was a easy 20 min walk to the stadium. Parking was free and easy out-front. The neighborhood is def on the sketchy side though, walking at night a few blocks to get some food def had our heads on a swivel. Over all it was exactly what we expected and good value."

Southbank St. Johns River Stay + Dining & Pool

8/10 Good

"Unbeatable location at a reasonable price. Close to water taxis and walking distance to plenty of restaurants and bars. Also, the pool area was nice and there's a Chris Ruth's Steakhouse on site. Pluses made up for a musty smelling room that needed some airing."
