The Don Cesar
The famed “Pink Palace” in St. Petersburg, Florida, was built by Thomas Rowe in 1928 for his lost lover, Lucinda, who died after her father forbid her to marry Rowe. The ghosts of a man in a suit and panama hat—believed to be Rowe—accompanied by a woman with dark hair are said to wander the second, fifth, and sixth floors. From $206/night
