"Deciding between the hyperluxe Mandarin Oriental and the equally luxe, albeit somewhat museumlike, Four Seasons is almost like trying to tell the difference between Ava and Zsa Zsa Gabor." Full review

Fodor's
"A favorite of business travelers visiting downtown's busy, business-centric Brickell Avenue, this plush sanctuary offers a respite from the nine-to-five mayhem." Full review

Time Out
"A high-flyer (70 storeys) in the Downtown financial district, the Four Seasons could be mistaken for an office building. But beyond the façade and the utilitarian lower lobby, it's pure palatial chic." Full review
Star Service

"Soaring 70 stories above Biscayne Bay, it's the tallest building south of Atlanta. Exterior is über minimalist. Interior is five-star opulence."
