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

"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

Star Service "The new SLS is a modern Shakespearean stage for today's Romeos, Juliets and Richard IIIs, whose narcissistic tendencies are exceeded only by their ability to spend cold hard cash." Full review
Gayot "The production and design team behind this property aimed to redefine contemporary hospitality through creativity, innovation and cooperative efforts with experts such as designer Philippe Starck."
BlackBook "The reigning princes of LA nightlife, sbe, expand their empire into the Magic City with the swish new SLS Hotel South Beach."

"Designer Philippe Starck's signature white decor includes a French twist in this beachfront boutique's guestrooms, where wall hangings evoke 18th-century carved headboards."
Fodor's "Smack in the center of South Beach, the SLS Hotel marks designer Philippe Starck's triumphant large-scale return to South Beach." Full review
Travel + Leisure "A 1939 Art Deco landmark has been reborn thanks to nightlife mogul Sam Nazarian and design ace Philippe Starck—the duo behind SLS’s sleek Beverly Hills flagship." Full review
Wallpaper "The reception is inspired by a retro-styled American 'sleep-away' camp... while the guest rooms have a traditional old world feel, echoing France's pre-Revolutionary royal court." Full review

"One of the trendiest spots for party people along South Beach’s glittering Collins Avenue, the SLS South Beach is home to Hyde Beach nightclub, The Bazaar by José Andrés and Katsuya restaurants." Full review
Jetsetter "A glitzy homage to South Beach decadence, complete with a celebrity pool scene and naughty touches like mirrored ceilings." Full review
Mr & Mrs Smith "SLS South Beach, Miami, is as much of a fusion dish as its surroundings." Full review
