Jacksonville Cheap Hotels

The best Jacksonville hotels are centered in two main areas, and the accommodation to suit you will depend on your needs and your tastes. If you are visiting on a vacation, then it is hard to beat the excellent ocean-side hotels. Stunning views of sandy beaches and the Atlantic Ocean, as well as access to amenities, great food and nightlife can make for a memorable stay in Jacksonville.

If you are in town on business or you prefer to be in the thick of the action, there is no shortage of Jacksonville hotels downtown. As well as hotels, Jacksonville has a great choice of homely guesthouses, affordable motels and many other accommodation options.

You will find all the big hotel chains downtown, ranging in price from mid-range to expensive, including Crowne Plaza, Omni, Wyndham and Hyatt Regency. The best and most convenient location for Jacksonville hotels is close to the river. From here you can take in all the best sights such as museums and Friendship Park, and the area is also great for shopping and eating out. Prices for a mid-range hotel by the river start at under $100 per night and can rise to hundreds of dollars.

There are plenty of budget hotel options in downtown Jacksonville also. However, the further you go from downtown, the better deals you will get. For example, you can get a good room in the Southpoint area for well under $50 per night.

Florida and sunshine go hand in hand, so for many visitors to Jacksonville, a beach-side hotel is the only real option. All along Jacksonville's stretch of beautiful beaches, you can find hotels to suit all tastes and budgets offering stunning views of the Atlantic Ocean. You will also find many of the major chains on the coastline, as well as luxury spas and some budget options. Again, there is no shortage of things to do or entertainment, and you can easily travel downtown if you feel the need to experience some city life.

Another great accommodation option if you are in Jacksonville on a longer stay is to rent an ocean-side home or apartment. There are plenty of great value self-catering options where you can enjoy the privacy of renting your own place.
