"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 "The Miami version of the famous Arizona and Lenox, Massachusetts, spa and wellness hotel is located directly on the beach." Full review
Fodor's "Even with its glamour-puss all-stars, this hotel still maintains a casual vibe, catering to its core members—those who work in the arts." Full review
Condé Nast Traveler "The 50-room hotel is in what’s been dubbed “Mid-Beach,” and attracts Miami’s media and music heavy hitters, plus a considerable Brit contingent." Full review
Star Service "At around 400 sq ft, the smallest units are large and inviting. The remainder of the accommodations measure in at around 500-800 sq ft, and all have sitting areas." Full review
Gayot "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."
Afar Magazine "Tucked away on a bend in the road on the northern part of Collins Avenue, the Soho Beach House feels surprisingly removed from the Miami Beach bustle." Full review
Travel + Leisure "Not only do they curate an all-natural product line and enforce full moon yoga on the beach, they’ve also got therapists with 20-plus years of experience, so you know you’re in good hands.
