We were originally looking for that, and when we saw the round building of the Holiday Inn, I thought that was it. Later that same day when I found the Hilton Inn postcard, I realized that these were actually 2 different hotels very near each other, both with a Polynesian theme. My dad grew up in St. Pete and must have gone back in the 80's to visit, I found this Hilton Inn brochure dated 1981 among some old paperwork he kept for years.
