"The first of the major new chain hotels set to pop up along the waterfront, the Atlantic is a quirky four-star hotel."

"The hotel doesn't quite match its main competitor, the Ritz-Carlton Fort Lauderdale, but it's much more affordable and prices are very reasonable considering all you get for your money." Full review

"Room 702: This seventh-floor, 1,200-square-foot oceanfront suite is furnished with a full kitchen, whirlpool bathtub, and separate shower, and also has the best panoramic Atlantic Ocean views." Full review

"This chic boutique hotel facing the ocean features elegant, spacious rooms and suites, all with an ocean or Intracoastal Waterway view."

"Located right on Florida's Gulf Coast beach, this property is ideally situated close to the shopping, restaurants and theaters of downtown."

"This modish restaurant specializes in Mediterranean-kissed takes on Florida’s natural bounty, such as pan-seared grouper and an Atlantic paella of local seafood tossed with spicy chorizo." Full review

"Oceanfront beach pad with a French bistro, fifth-floor outdoor pool and splurge-worthy spa." Full review

"The Atlantic might as well be called ‘The South Beach Lauderdale, ’ because that’s the showy over-the-top style this luxurious beauty brings to the local accommodation game." Full review

"Across the road from a public beach...the larger, more commanding and commercial Ritz-Carlton, this operation may be an independent hotel, but it is one of the best here." Full review

"Interiors are modern and minimalist, from the marble and wood and beiges and browns of the lobby to the spacious, unfussy rooms." Full review
