"This hotel presents a serious catch-22: It's got a front-row view of all of Miami Beach, Biscayne Bay, the Miami River, and the Atlantic Ocean, but it is also located in downtown Miami." Full review

Gayot
"Located near the Third Street Beach, this 1937 Art Deco hotel offers 24 elegantly furnished guest rooms."

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."
