    It's an older style hotel that has been completely refurbished. The staff is amazing, the view is great, the free breakfast offers things like eggs benedict, and it's within walking distance of downtown. The prices appear a little higher than some but it's on the water and considering the quality of the free breakfast, the evening cocktail hour, the easy walking distance to everything, free coffee, and the fridge in the room, I thought it was a great value for the money. I'm kind of hoping that no one reads this :). I hope to get rservations in the future.

    Summer temps had the small pool’s water un-refreshingly warm but the power jets worked as a warm hot tub.

    Have to be the best view rooms in all of St. Augustine! Very romantic setting overlooking Matanzas Bay from the east end of the Bridge of Lions. Easy walking distance into town. Gourmet breakfasts each morning and cocktail hour snacks for an hour every evening are included in the room price. Every room has a balcony or patio on the water side. The staff was amazingly helpful and friendly. Property is just a short drive to beautiful Anastasia State Park Beach where umbrellas and beach chairs can be rented.

    Nothing.

    Location was perfect, local bars and restaurants around hotel, and easy 10 minutes walk over the bridge to the main area of St Augustine. Room was very clean and bed very comfortable, AC was good, fridge a good enough size. Outside sitting area a good size and great view across the marina to the town itself. Pool was lovely though very warm on an already hot day. Staff were very friendly and helpful. Breakfast was also great.

    Very clean, modern furnishings with a nautical flair. We had a room on the ground level, with a patio and a couple of chairs where it was lovely to sit and enjoy the view of Lions Bridge and St Augustine 's skyline. Breakfast was in a small dining room lined with windows with a nice view of the river, fresh cut flowers on some tables, and served to us by cheerful, welcoming staff. Everything was fresh and tasty; we had a choice of a "starter" and then a "main" which was very satisfying. It was easy to drive into the downtown area, and there are several restaurants within walking distance.

    The rooms are more standard motel, but nicely decorated and very comfortable bed. DOn't expect a pool to actually swim in, but its a nice area to lay in the sun.

    The location on the river with view of downtown and the Lion's bridge and boat tragic was wonderful. The breakfast room was inviting and the three course presentation was better than expected. A bonus was the appetizers in the evening.

    While the breakfast at Marker 8 Hotel & Marina was satisfactory, it could have offered a slightly larger selection and a few additional options to cater to diverse tastes. However, despite this minor drawback, it still served its purpose adequately, providing a decent start to the day.

    The staff at Marker 8 Hotel & Marina exuded warmth and hospitality from the moment we arrived. They paid meticulous attention to detail and graciously accommodated all of our requests, making us feel truly welcomed and valued. The rooms at the hotel exceeded our expectations in every way. They were spacious, quiet, and boasted unparalleled views of St. Augustine. The comfortable accommodations provided the perfect retreat after a day of exploration. One of the standout features of Marker 8 Hotel & Marina is its unbeatable location. Situated just five minutes away from all of the city's main landmarks and attractions, the hotel offers easy access to everything St. Augustine has to offer, with the added charm of crossing the bridge to get there. The hotel's heated pool was a welcome amenity, particularly on colder or windy days. It provided a relaxing oasis where we could unwind and enjoy the beautiful surroundings in comfort.
