Central but Quiet Location
Although Candlewood Suites Jacksonville is located close to a busy highway and a main tourist area with many attractions and businesses, the area around the hotel is surprisingly quiet and relaxing. It's far enough away from the city centre to be removed from the hustle and bustle but close enough to be easily accessible. .
