Cambria Hotel St Petersburg-Madeira Beach Marina

Cambria Hotels, an upscale brand franchised by Choice Hotels International, Inc. (NYSE: CHH), made its official debut in Madeira Beach, Florida yesterday evening with the grand opening of the Cambria Hotel St. Petersburg - Madeira Beach Marina. Keeping in line with the area's nautical theme and Cambria's commitment to the communities in which the brand is present, the celebration was marked by a Gasparilla-inspired event and $1,000 donation to the Gulf Beaches Rotary, an organization of business and civic leaders from the Madeira Beach and Treasure Island areas. Madeira Beach Mayor John Hendricks and City Manager Robert Daniels joined executives from Choice Hotels and the hotel's development company, Madeira Hotel Investors LLC, for the ribbon-cutting ceremony.

Situated at 15015 Madeira Way, the 125-room Cambria Hotel St. Petersburg - Madeira Beach Marina is conveniently located in Madeira Beach Town Center, near leisure attractions such as John's Pass Village & Boardwalk, the Salvador Dali Museum, War Veterans Memorial Park, and Clearwater Marine Aquarium, which is home to Winter, star of the "Dolphin Tale" movies. There are several scenic beaches within walking distance, including Madeira Beach, Archibald Beach Park and Redington Beach, in addition to the nearby St. Pete Beach. The property's location also provides easy access to major area employers and company headquarters, including the Home Shopping Network, Spectrum, Johns Hopkins All Children's Hospital and the University of South Florida.

The hotel features upscale amenities and approachable indulgences that appeal to modern travelers, including:
