"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."

"Located on the site of the historic Sovereign Hotel, this property now enjoys status as a private members club with a hotel and Cowshed Spa outpost for anyone willing to pay the high-end rates."
BlackBook
"Membership has its privileges. Located on the site of the historic Sovereign hotel, swank tower exudes Miami nice while adding elements of urban cool the beach has always lacked."
