Travel + Leisure
"Miami's first W property is a major departure for the brand: all 408 spacious residences have a French bohemian aesthetic, and are done in various shades of white and gray." Full review
Star Service
"It is part conference center, part nightclub, with everything but the gym and accommodations contributing to its dichotomous existence. " Full review

Insight Guides
"Understated stylishness is the hallmark of this trendy Art Deco hotel. Bedrooms - mostly suites - and their wall-to-wall marble bathrooms come in muted creams and beiges."
Travel + Leisure

Gayot
"Built in 1936, this 40-room hotel was completely refurbished in 2002. It has retained many of its original Art Deco elements such as terrazzo floors and aluminum fixtures."
BlackBook
"Deco standout that's chic and cozy at the same time. The lighting is very flattering as are the rooms with Frette linens and towels that are hard not to throw in your knock-off Birkin bag."
