Fodor's Expert Review Hotel Haya

This boutique hotel in the heart of Ybor City pays homage to the area’s historic Spanish, Italian, and Cuban roots, weaving together traditional and cultural details with contemporary comforts. Details that play to the area’s history are around every corner, including exposed brick, preserved reproductions of works by Spanish painter Francisco Goya that were uncovered during construction, and lighting that nods to the district’s streetlights. On-site dining includes the fabulous Flor Fina, an upscale Mediterranean restaurant, as well as Café Quiquiriqui, an all-day Cuban restaurant and café. You can also order boozy ice-pops and cocktails by the pool, or venture into the neighborhood to experience nearby J.C. Newman Cigar Company or the Ybor City Saturday Market. Professionals or adventurous travelers interested in exploring urban Ybor City will adore these accommodations.
