Frommer's "Part spa, part hotel, and part haven for hipsters seeking refuge from the more mainstream boutique hotel-cum-hangouts." Full review
Lonely Planet Top Choice
"Wood that’s blonder than Barbie and a crisp-and-clean deco theme combine to create one of SoFi’s most elegant yet stunningly modern sleeps." Full review
OysterBudget
"This clean, modern, extremely low-key, 24-room hotel is on a quiet residential street just south of the South Beach action." Full review
DK Eyewitness "In a trendy area, Hotel St. Augustine is part hotel, part spa, and wholly a refuge from other boutique hotels which mask themselves as lounges."
Gayot "Located near the Third Street Beach, this 1937 Art Deco hotel offers 24 elegantly furnished guest rooms."
BlackBook "Located in SoFi (South of Fifth), this in-the-thick-of-it-all boutique hotel feels blessedly out of the way. Well, out of the traffic and snarl of rookies anyway."
Zagat "Spa-like amenities fill each of the 24 guestrooms in this boutique hotel -- multijet showers that convert into steam cabins (with speakers), aromatherapy oils and skin treatments."
The Telegraph6.0
"A tranquil hideaway located in SoFi (South Beach’s South of Fifth district), the Hotel St. Augustine offers 24 loft-style, spa-inspired guestrooms." Full review
National Geographic "Art Deco landmark with 24 loft-style rooms two blocks off Ocean Drive in the South of Fifth district; bathrooms sport "spa bars" stocked with essential oils, candles, and incense." Full review

Frommer's "A victory for Ocean Drive, a street that hasn't seen such a swank stay since the Tides, Hotel Victor, managed by Hyatt, is a hyperluxe, 88-room boutique see-and-be-seen hotel." Full review
Concierge "If you want to stay on Ocean—and be just steps from the busiest slice of the beach—this is a good place to do it."
OysterUpscale
"With eccentric furniture, a jellyfish aquarium and a coed, clothing-optional hammam, the Victor packs sexy glamour into a small Ocean Drive boutique." Full review
Travel + Leisure "The L. Murray Dixon–built Hotel Victor has been restored in high sybaritic fashion by celebrated French designer Jacques Garcia." Full review
DK Eyewitness "The most fabulous thing to hit Ocean Drive since Versace, this Art Deco boutique hotel was designed by Jacques Garcia of Paris’s hip Hotel Costes fame."
Rough Guide "This lavish hotel designed by hotelier Jacques Garcia is in the style of a clubby, Ibiza-style spot, complete with in-residence DJs spinning weeknights until midnight."
Time Out "Adjacent to the Versace Mansion, the Victor is every bit as rich and opulent as the designer label itself." Full review
Star Service "Located in the heart of the action, across Ocean Drive from the beach, this unique hotel has a lot of truth in its name; since reopening in 2003, it has become a top pick in South Beach." Full review
Gayot "Adding to Miami's reputation as a hip hotel mecca, Hotel Victor blends South Beach Art Deco and Parisian styles."
BlackBook "When your neighbor is Versace's Casa Casuarina, you have to do something special to get attention."
