Located near downtown Jacksonville, Florida, the college currently sits on 23 acres and houses Centennial Hall (a nationally registered historic structure), the school’s oldest building which was constructed in 1916. A historically black college, Edward Waters College is currently a private, Christian, liberal arts college, is the oldest black college in Florida. It is a member of the United Negro College Fund. Edward Waters College initially opened its doors as Brown Theological Institute. The school was forced to close for most of the 1870s due to financial difficulties, but re-opened in 1883 with an extended educational program. It also adopted its current name which honors the third bishop of the AME church. The college was destroyed in Great (Jacksonville) Fire of 1901, the largest urban fire in southeast United States. Three years later in 1904 the AME church began rebuilding the college. For the majority of the College’s years of operation, the AME Church also raised money to clear the school’s debt and construct most of the buildings on the College’s campus.](https://images.trvl-media.com/place/1674/1abf5ec1-aa59-4f52-baf1-5c5ea9e4f9ee.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=115.61&rh=65.03&ra=fit&q=high) Edward Waters College 3 min drive \- 1.5 miles - 5 Points West Shopping Center 15 min walk \- 0.8 miles - Riverside Park 2 min drive \- 1.1 miles ### Getting around - Jefferson Station 4 min drive - Jacksonville Station 12 min drive - Jacksonville, FL (CRG-Jacksonville Executive at Craig) 23 min drive ### Restaurants - King Street District 2 min drive - Kickbacks Gastropub 2 min drive - King Maker Brewing 15 min walk - Nacho Taco 12 min walk - D’bos Daiquiris, Wings and Seafood 2 min drive ## Frequently asked questions ### Is The Jewel of Jacksonville! pet-friendly? ### How much is parking at The Jewel of Jacksonville!? ### What time is check-in at The Jewel of Jacksonville!? ### What time is check-out at The Jewel of Jacksonville!? ### Where is The Jewel of Jacksonville! located? ## Have a question?

The inside was great, small problem for me was that there were no king beds, but the ones they had were very comfortable.. Alsii we were here for Mayo Clinic so the commute was long. ##### misty f. Stayed 8 nights in Jan 2023 ### 4/10 Poor #### Keith L. 5 Nov 2025 Disliked: Location, listing accuracy The house was a big disappointment for us. In fact, we ended up not staying there because my family did not feel safe. There were unleashed dogs roaming the streets. Three of them, including a pitbull, positioned themselves at the yard fence five minutes after we checked in. The interior of the residence is okay. The kitchen has been renovated, and is nice, but the rest of the house, and furniture, is worn. Bottom line, the tagline "Jewel of Jacksonville" is extremely misleading. ##### Keith L. Stayed 2 nights in Oct 2025 ### 6/10 Okay #### Tami W., Baxley, Ga 26 Feb 2023 Liked: Check-in, communication Disliked: Location #### Ok, but not great Carpet was nasty, big stains on it. 3 beds without complete sheet set (needed a flat sheet). Rest of the house was clean and nice. Liked the security system and security lights. Gate to fence was falling down. Location was a not-so-great neighborhood. Was really close to Prime Osborn Convention Center, which was good. ##### Tami W. Stayed 2 nights in Feb 2023 ---
