Top hotels in Eastside
Margaritaville Jacksonville Beach
The room is great and the view too, the only issue is that i paid two times for my room because the hotel decided to cancel my room without even telling me about it and never refunded my money but asked me to pay again if i still want my room.

Hyatt Regency Jacksonville
Check out staff member was a bit rude. She rolled her eyes at me at one point. The rooms were just ok. The view was very nice of the river.

The rooms need updating. Bed sheets had stains on them, very gross. Hotel company needs to fumigate rooms, saw several roaches in the room.

Hampton Inn Jacksonville Beach/Oceanfront
Location was great and I loved the property. It had a pool, hot tub, free breakfast, a musician in the bar at night on the weekends and a cool tiki bar in the back. Lots of parking both near the entrance and across the street. Staff was friendly and the food was good.
