Insight Guides "Here you will find wackily decorated themed rooms such as "Me Tarzan, You Vain" and "Executive Zebra"."
Fodor's "Each awesome room of this Ocean Drive boutique hotel is completely different, fashioned from a mix of antique and garage-sale furnishings." Full review
Lonely Planet Top Choice
"When the owners of Diesel jeans purchased the Pelican in 1999, they started scouring garage sales for just the right ingredients to fuel a mad experiment." Full review

"Diesel jeans joined the hotel game with the Pelican boutique. The 32 unique rooms... are fun, but very worn." Full review
Travel + Leisure "Owned by Italian clothing company Diesel, the Pelican Hotel is an eclectic property in the midst of Ocean Drive’s bustling nightlife scene." Full review
DK Eyewitness "A self-described “toy hotel”, the Pelican is owned by the creative geniuses who own the Diesel brand."
Rough Guide "Irreverent Italian jeanswear company Diesel owns this hotel, so the quirky, campy decor of the rooms should come as no surprise."
Time Out "What do you get when you mix the Diesel fashion label with an art deco hotel? The most whimsical hotel in Miami." Full review
Star Service "Situated between Eighth and Ninth streets, in the heart of South Beach's whirling nightlife, this hotel is a landmark for clubbers and cavorters." Full review

Frommer's "Sceney it's not, but scenic? Absolutely. With its towering ceilings, sultry furnishings, and massive gilded mirrors, the elegant 1940s-style National is a Deco darling." Full review
Fodor's "The most spectacular feature is Miami Beach's longest pool, which stretches from the tower, past a series of comfy black-and-white-striped cabanas and poolside tables, to a duo of tropical tiki bars." Full review
Lonely Planet "The National is an old-school deco icon, with its bell-tower–like cap and slim yet muscular facade." Full review
OysterUpscale
"A moderately priced designer hotel on posh upper Collins Avenue, the National boasts one of the largest, sleekest pools in Miami." Full review
Travel + Leisure "Located in the Art Deco District, the historic National Hotel provides a quiet retreat from the party atmosphere of Collins Avenue." Full review
DK Eyewitness "Nestled between the hip Delano and Sagamore hotels, the Art Deco National has towering ceilings, massive mirrors, and a 1940s vibe."
Star Service "The National Hotel has been SoBe's posterchild for conservative art-deco style since reopening in the early 1990s." Full review

This is a great choice for commercial travelers, but high-end folk best choose their accommodations carefully: Cabana rooms and suites.
BlackBook "Art Deco history meets modern amenities. Choose from historic tower or poolside cabana accommodation."
Not For Tourists "Beautiful art deco hotel with absolutely no nightlife whatsoever."
Condé Nast Traveler "Its beachfront location, two pools (one of them 203-feet long), and playfully decorated rooms in the main tower and 36 cabana suites, attract a young, stylish mix of guests." Full review
