"There's nothing luxurious about all-vintage, authentically nicked furniture (except maybe the price)." Full review
Travel + Leisure "A 1940 Art Deco masterpiece that served as a backdrop for many Esther Williams films, this hotel delivers the grace and pure fantasy of old-line Miami." Full review
DK Eyewitness "The Raleigh is now a happening celebrity magnet, with a restaurant and 20sstyle bar that remains true to the hotel’s Art Deco origins."

"The French-inflected Raleigh is like France itself: effortlessly chic, impossibly seductive, and occasionally vexing." Full review
Time Out "It now boasts all mod cons, down to bedside buttons controlling everything from lights to room temperature." Full review

Gayot "Despite its rich history, the 1940s, beachfront Raleigh Hotel feels fated for the 21st century."
