Oyster Upscale
"Bamboo, waterfalls and embedded ivy make the Mayfair feel like an ancient jungle civilization in the heart of Coco Walk." Full review
DK Eyewitness "Once a stuffy hotel of Miami Vice-era fame, this place is now a swank member of the exclusive Kimpton Group."
Star Service "This property has one of the best locations in Coconut Grove, but its record of good—not great—maintenance, and its proximity to nightlife...puts it firmly in the midrange category.

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."

"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."
