Downtown is the best area to stay for Tallahassee’s first-time visitors because it is centrally located with all the attractions right on its doorstep including the Capitol Complex and the Museum of Florida History. It’s also the best place to experience Tallahassee’s booming nightlife.
College Town is an affordable area to stay for those on a lower budget. Despite its affordability, the area boasts a central location since it’s just a few kilometres from Downtown, the State Capitol, and the Railroad Square Art District.
Creatives might prefer to see the alternative side of Tallahassee by staying around the Railroad Square Art District. Spend your days around local artists, designers, and other forward-thinkers in a colourful artistic environment. Located right by Downtown Tallahassee, you can still explore the rest of the city at will.
Alternatively, immerse in the tropical and wild Floridian landscapes by staying in the cabins, hotels, or vacation homes of the parks, lakes, and marshes that surround Tallahassee. Instead of exploring historic houses and museums, explore nature and discover local wildlife on hikes, boat rides, and more. While it offers a completely different experience to the city, it’s equally reflective of Tallahassee culture.
