Welcome to the Hotel Flor, a Hilton Tapestry Collection hotel, a landmark wedding venue situated in the heart of downtown Tampa, FL.

Flawless service awaits you at the Hotel Flor, making it the ideal setting for your fairytale wedding.

The hotel was particularly popular during the 1940s, earning a reputation as a gathering place for local businesspeople and military personnel. The hotel’s Dan Room was nicknamed “the sure-fire room” due to the guaranteed good time you would have there. Since 2012, the Hotel Flor has once again become known as Tampa’s crowning glory, its original beauty and stature recaptured with historical expertise and meticulous craftsmanship. In 1996, the Hotel Flor was added to the National Register of Historic Places, one of the few hotels in Tampa to receive such recognition. The venue boasts multiple ceremony and reception locations for you to choose from. The Grand Ballroom is 8,000 square feet, elegant and stunning. The Crystal Ballroom, 2000 square feet, features romantic arched windows, an ornate ceiling, and stunning chandeliers to illuminate your reception. For more intimate gatherings, the Mezzanine Rooms will be perfect. Spanning 2,686 square feet and flooded with natural light from the unique half-circle windows, there is ample room for up to 170 guests. This space is ideal for buffet services. You may customize your chosen ceremony and reception spaces to suit your tastes, creating a truly personalized wedding experience for you and your guests.

The Hotel Flor offers a variety of packages to suit every budget. For your convenience, each package includes tables, chairs, linens, a dance floor, and a champagne toast. A dedicated day-of banquet manager will oversee your wedding and ensure everything runs smoothly. Various bar packages offer a range of beers, ciders, and wines. The experienced staff provides a range of dining options, including butler-passed hors d’oeuvres and buffet-style dining. To help your planning process, Hotel Flor can assist with the setup and cleanup of your festivities, vendor coordination, and a day-of timeline.

Seamless Experience

I cannot say enough positive things about our experience hosting our wedding here! Every. Single. Guest has raved about our wedding. The planning, communication, and guidance we had from the event coordinator and GM were unparalleled. The food and bar service were both amazing, timed perfectly with zero hitches. I am so happy we had our wedding here and thank you Floridan Palace Hotel!!!

Wow, just wow. We had the best wedding and could not thank our vendors enough! The Floridan Palace Hotel was the perfect choice for our wedding. We loved the historic charm and how lovely the lobby and ballroom of the hotel were. We had our ceremony and reception at the hotel and it all was flawless. Toula and her staff are very wonderful and so talented. Toula has so much experience with weddings and was the biggest help with planning the wedding and making our big day perfect. The hotel staff did a wonderful job and everything went smoothly. I kid you not, we had no problems and are so blessed. I would recommend this venue to everyone! And the food...oh my goodness! We got an overwhelming amount of compliments on the food. The chef is so talented and everything is so fresh. Even the bread before dinner was mouthwatering. The filet mignon just melted in your mouth and the chicken was flavorful and tender. The food service was professional and did not get in the way whatsoever. Couldn't even tell they were there...in and out so fast doing their job! Everyone had a smile on their face! Such a beautiful hotel, but most importantly, such a professional and honest owner and staff. Everything was perfect and made our day unforgettable.

We had Northside Florist do our flowers and Kathy was so professional and her flowers are beautiful and elegant. We had Delite Entertainment do our pipe and drape and had Joshua from Delite Entertainment as our DJ. Our guests loved him and he helped us every step of the way!

Historic gem!

The #1 complement we heard from our guests about the venue was the amount of food they got, and how wonderful it was! We did the palatial package, which is the highest tier package at the hotel. I cannot say enough about getting our monies worth. We had a beautiful wedding at the hotel and I definitely recommend this venue to anyone who isn't looking to chance having a rainy wedding outside in Florida!
We're all about trust. Our community relies on honest reviews to help you make those big decisions with ease.
