Bradenton-Downtown Historic District, Florida

Opened on November 19 2013 and listed on the National Register of Historic Places, the New Hampton Inn and Suites Bradenton-Downtown Historic District, encompasses an eclectic mix of arts and cultural heritage. With its charming 1920s décor including cathedral ceilings and 1920s glass windows, the hotel boasts a riverfront destination and is a short walk from the lively Main Street.

For a day of unwinding, the stunning beaches of Anna Maria Island and Longboat Key can be reached easily by car. Sunbathe on the glorious white sand of Long boat key and watch the famous Anna Maria sunset in a relaxed atmosphere with some of the best restaurants and views on the coast.
