Downtown lodging and parking question

Looking at Days Inn by Wyndham on Palafax St. is this place located where we could walk to various restaurants and other downtown attractions.

Is there easy public parking lots downtown, to park for a day of site seeing.

Thanks.

The Days Inn by Wyndham on Palafox Street in Pensacola is conveniently located in the heart of downtown, making it a solid choice if you want to walk to local restaurants, bars, and attractions. Palafox Street is essentially the main thoroughfare for downtown Pensacola, so you’ll have a variety of dining options, coffee shops, and historic sites within a short stroll.

In terms of walking distance, you can easily access:

  • Seville Square and surrounding parks
  • Pensacola Museum of Art and other cultural attractions
  • Local restaurants and breweries along Palafox Street
  • Bars and nightlife areas within a few blocks

Regarding parking, downtown Pensacola has several public parking options:

  • Metered street parking along Palafox Street and side streets (typically free evenings and weekends, but check signage)
  • Surface lots such as the Palafox Street lot, Garden Street lot, and Zaragoza Street lot for day-long parking
  • Some lots offer hourly or flat daily rates, often under $10–$15 for the day

If you’re planning a full day of sightseeing, using one of the public lots is usually easier than trying to find street parking. The Days Inn may also offer on-site or nearby hotel parking, so it’s worth asking ahead about rates and availability for extended parking during your stay.

Overall, staying at this location is convenient for a pedestrian-friendly downtown experience while still having good access to parking for day trips or longer stays exploring the area.
