A less-than-simple 3-star hotel on the easter edge of the St. John’s River, Ramada Jacksonville Hotel & Conference Center is the perfect all-in-one locale for business travelers. Home to basic perks that include free breakfast & Wi-Fi, plus added bonuses like an on-site restaurant & bar, cottage-style suites, plus a game room that includes a pool table, pinball machine, and air hockey, you’ll have everything you need to feel at home. The hotel is also home to an on-site comedy club, making every evening one to look forward to. Keep an upper hand by reserving your own ride to explore the region, or book a taxi for quick trips to downtown and beyond.
With twenty minutes separating the region from downtown Jacksonville, you’ll have a world of quietude to explore. Enjoy old attractions, starting with the Walter Johns Historic Park, a staple of the St. Johns area home to scenic barns, super-sized piers, and hidden homes entrenched in bayou wildlife. For even more views of the water, head to Mandarin Park, located a bit more south and offering trails with riverside views and tennis courts perfect for getting a work-out surrounded by nature. Those looking for a solid bite to eat should take advantage of the on-site restaurant, or go with something just as all-American by crossing Hartley Road for a sit-down at Bob Evans, an Ohio chain known for its country-style eats and happy hour drinks (reservations sometimes required).
