The house
HiltonMural-fronted coastal boutique
The hotel brings an intimate boutique rhythm to Clearwater Beach, centered around rooftop evenings and Gulf sunsets.
What it’s good at

A seventh-floor rooftop swimming pool overlooking the Gulf, steps from Clearwater Beach.
In a lively part of town
Where things happen: restaurants, shops, people.
The Beachwalk promenade runs right past the door, with Clearwater Beach's white sand just steps away.
The rooms
Rooms take cues from coastal bungalows, finished with warm woods, clean lines, and soft sandy hues.
The rooftop pool
Bring a swimsuit.
Submerged loungers sit in the seasonally heated rooftop pool, looking out over the Gulf under striped umbrellas.
At the table
Ocean Seven serves Floribbean cuisine on the seventh floor, and the open-air bar pours cocktails beneath a shaded pergola.
How it began
The hotel opened in 2024 on the site of the former Beachwalk Inn, built entirely from the ground up.

The city grew up with it. Same rituals, same regulars, same bar.

A world of its own. Something to do from breakfast to nightcap.
