4-star boutique hotel in a 1905 federal courthouse in downtown Tampa
Historic Setting
Le Meridien Tampa, The Courthouse occupies a century-old federal courthouse designed by James Knox Taylor in the Beaux-Arts style. The building is a registered national historic site, and the hotel has preserved original courtroom doors, marble floors, and granite staircases. Guests can walk through hallways that once held trials of mob bosses, with original details such as the "207, UNITED STATES HEARING ROOM ENTRANCE" lettering still on glass doors.
Dining
The on-site restaurant Sal Rosa is located in the former courtroom, using the original witness stand as the hostess stand. Sal Rosa serves elevated Caribbean-Latin cuisine in a space that retains the hearing room door with its original frosted glass. Bizou Brasserie offers New American cuisine with a French flair for breakfast and other meals.
Location
The hotel provides complimentary access to the Tampa Museum of Art through its Unlock Art program. Guests also receive tickets to the Tampa Theatre and can explore Ybor City, which is nearby. Bicycle rentals are available for guests to reach the Riverwalk and Armature Works within a 15-to-20-minute walk.
Amenities
Guest rooms are housed in repurposed courtroom spaces with 20-foot ceilings and original architectural details. Each room offers a flat-screen cable TV, a small refrigerator, and a private bathroom with high-quality toiletries. The hotel has an outdoor swimming pool, a 24-hour fitness center with two Peloton bikes, and free Wi-Fi throughout the property.
Services
The hotel welcomes pets with special amenities provided for furry guests. Business travelers have access to a business center, meeting and banquet facilities, and express check-in/check-out. Valet parking is available for $45 per day, and the hotel is 1.6 km from the Port of Tampa Cruise Terminals.
Highlights
Historic Setting: Repurposed 1905 federal courthouse with original courtroom details
Dining: Sal Rosa in the former courtroom with Caribbean-Latin cuisine
Cultural Access: Unlock Art program includes Tampa Museum of Art tickets
Wellness: Outdoor pool and 24-hour gym with Peloton bikes
Pet-Friendly: Special amenities for furry guests
Location: 1.6 km from cruise terminals, walkable to Riverwalk and Armature Works
“In my opinion, the building's history as a courthouse lends an appealing gravitas, while its downtown location places guests steps away from Tampa's Riverwalk and theaters. I especially appreciate the thoughtful touches, such as late check-out, and the Unlock Art program grants complimentary access to local cultural institutions. It's a solid choice for those seeking both convenience and character.”
