Concierge "Now that it's strictly Schrager-free, the legendarily beautiful but snooty staffers have retained their model-good looks but lost most of the attitude."

Star Service "It is part conference center, part nightclub, with everything but the gym and accommodations contributing to its dichotomous existence. " Full review
Gayot "Built on a colorful stretch of South Beach, this contemporary hotel has much to offer."
