ST. PETERSBURG, Fla. – Moxy St. Pete, the first lifestyle hotel in downtown St. Petersburg, has opened its doors. Located on Central Avenue, the hotel features 163 guest rooms and suites, a rooftop pool deck, a lobby bar, a coffee bar, and a podcast studio.
The hotel is also home to the new location of Sparrow, a rooftop dining and nightlife experience.
“This is a one-of-a-kind lifestyle hotel that not only works within St. Pete’s local traditions and culture but also adds to the neighborhood,” said Nick Pantuliano, COO, PTM Partners. “Moxy St. Pete reflects the energy of the EDGE District, particularly as St. Pete continues to grow into a true international destination. We welcome travelers and locals alike to Moxy St. Pete and the EDGE District, and can’t wait for guests to experience all of the hotel’s offerings. With our hotel partners DoveHill and Wurzak Hotel Group, we’re excited to be introducing a space that will help to anchor PTM’s expansive, mixed-use EDGE Collective development.”

Moxy St. Pete’s guest rooms offer a tranquil escape, featuring plush beds, refreshing rain showers, and abundant natural light. Tech-forward amenities, spacious bathrooms, and a minimalist design enhance the guest experience. Select rooms boast balconies with views of bustling Central Avenue.
The hotel also features the neighborhood’s first rooftop pool, complemented by Sip ‘n Dip, an open-air bar serving cocktails and poolside favorites. The rooftop, adorned with a geometric mural by Miami artist Hoxxoh, offers breathtaking views.
Coming soon, Sparrow, a 4,000-square foot rooftop bar and lounge, will provide unobstructed city views, Asian-inspired cuisine, craft cocktails, and a sleek ambiance. Sparrow will serve as a cozy daytime retreat and transform into a vibrant nightlife destination after dark.
“The Moxy’s design mirrors the historic essence of St. Pete’s 1920 urban landscape, a reflection that is deeply significant to us as a local firm,” said Everald Colas, founding principal of Storyn Studio for Architecture. “Our goal was to create a design that harmonizes with the community, captivating both residents and visitors. Collaborating closely with PTM, we ensured our design seamlessly integrates with the surrounding neighborhood.”
Moxy St. Pete is located at 1234 Central Avenue. Opening rates start at $249 per night. Reservations can be made online or by calling 727-677-2000.
