Hotel Haya, Tampa

Hotel Haya - A historic Ybor City boutique hotel with courtyard pool, Latin dining, and Cuban-inspired café

Located along vibrant 7th Avenue in Ybor City's historic Latin Quarter, this Tampa hotel fuses two landmark buildings from 1890 - the ornate Las Novedades restaurant and the Warren Building. The Valencia Ballroom showcases soaring two-story windows, whitewashed brick walls, herringbone wood floors, and custom blown glass chandeliers. The property features over 5000 square feet of event space, a private courtyard pool, and upscale dining at Flor Fina restaurant with coastal-inspired décor and Latin-Mediterranean cuisine. Hotel Haya's Café Quiquiriquí serves Cuban coffee and casual fare in a contemporary setting. The historic TECO streetcar provides direct access to the Florida Aquarium, Sparkman Wharf, Amalie Arena, and Tampa's Financial District.
