Transformed DoubleTree Sprouts in St. Augustine

ST. AUGUSTINE, Fla.

The DoubleTree by Hilton St. Augustine Historic District, has launched in the heart of the "Ancient City," the first permanent European settlement in the continental U.S.

Within walking distance of St. Augustine's many cultural and historical attractions, and just 50 miles from the Jacksonville International Airport, the 97-room hotel offers modern luxuries complemented by old-world Spanish design features, including wrought iron, distressed brick-look arches, earthy color tones and artwork depicting iconic St. Augustine scenery.

The Oak Room Restaurant and Lounge serves American cuisine using locally-sourced ingredients, with signature dishes such as Port Wine & Cherry Lacquered Duck Breast and a homemade Datil Pepper Jam with caramelized onions and bacon.

Other amenities include a 24-hour fitness center, an outdoor heated swimming pool surrounded by lush tropical landscaping, a 24-hour business center, parking and Wi-Fi access throughout the hotel's public spaces and guest rooms.

DoubleTree by Hilton St. Augustine Historic District can also host an event for up to 200 people within the hotel's 2,700 square feet of versatile meeting and event space, including its elegant Anastasia Ballroom and the more intimate Laurel Room.

The hotel offers the Meetings Simplified by DoubleTree by Hilton package from $40 per person, which includes the meeting room, basic meeting Wi-Fi, meeting room supplies including a flipchart, markers, extension and power cord, and all day non-alcoholic beverage service.
