Miami Hotels in USA (38 others)

It’s hard to believe, but Miami’s South Beach is still changing. Five years ago every Art Deco building was being restored and every other marginally worthwhile building was being converted into a restaurant, boutique or bar.

Today, South Beach has secured its status as the warm weather destination for the urban all-night party with a Latin twist and the appeal only seems to increase as the critical mass grows.

Miami is ranked as a global city for its importance in finance, commerce, media, entertainment, arts and international trade. The city is home to many company headquarters, banks, and television studios. It is an international center for popular entertainment in television, music, fashion, film, and the performing arts. The city's Port of Miami is known for accommodating the largest volume of cruise ships in the world and is home to many cruise line headquarters. Miami is also home to the largest concentration of international banks in the United States.

8 Hip Hotels in Miami

How much detail do you want to see?

  1. The Delano Hotel

    Miami, USA

    When it opened in 1995 the Delano must have set a world record for the number of press inches devoted to a new hotel. Journalists not normally easily impressed waxed lyrical about the white rooms, the white marble, the white-clad staff and the all-white spa.


    Starck's design for the Delano's public spaces is, it has achieved the status that all architects and designers long for: recognition as a 'classic', with its soaring ceiling height and forest of imposing columns, it offers great visual drama. Ten years on, this place has still got what it takes - Messieurs Starck and Schrager: take a bow.

    The Delano is on Collins with direct access to the beach. Collins Avenue offers more restaurants, bars and nightclubs in a row than any other area of South Beach and still has the Latin energy that makes the city such a hot destination.

    Delano is the perfect symbol of the new Miami – hip, young and design-conscious.

  2. Gansevoort South

    Miami, USA

    Gansevoort in New York built its appeal not so much as a hotel but as a scene on the roof. It is this roof scene that Gansevoort have brought south to Miami. Except this time it’s bigger and better. The pool on the roof is 110 feet long, and the party scene is spread out over 26,000 square feet.

    The rooms at Gansevoort South Beach are huge. Each room has a living area with couch and two chairs, a glass desk that doubles as a table, and a very large bed. The rooms are like lofts, and although guests might be tempted to spend more time in them, I honestly doubt it considering the temptations outside.

    A poolside / ocean-side lounge, lobby bar, roof bar, Asian restaurant, Dave Barton’s largest gym and first ever spa spanning 45 thousand square feet plus coming soon, the sexy STK steakhouse.

    It is not so much a hotel but a scene that Gansevoort have brought south to Miami.

  3. Mondrian South Beach

    Miami, USA

    Special Offer

    The Mondrian South Beach is a curved piece of modernist architecture with an interior designed by controversial Marcel Wanders. The style is definitely post minimalist with a sophisticated colour palette of gold, black and white. With his trademark chandeliers throughout, comfort in the sensual sense is given centre stage inside and out. The huge pool with private cabanas and individual plunge pools, surrounded by a lush garden, lounge areas, secret pathways and kissing areas is definitely not your average pool.

    The setting is straight out of CSI Miami, the silhouette of downtown Miami is behind the expansive blue waters of Biscayne Bay. Because it faces west it also has the sunsets; best watched with a mojito in hand from the bayside bar or private rooftop bar.


    There are no rooms! Every guest gets a studio or apartment - The convenience of a residence with the luxury of hotel service.

  4. The Raleigh is among the many architectural treasures that have survived from Miami’s golden age; today it still embodies the dual art deco philosophy of seductive show and the art of living. The result is neither loud nor flashy, but memorable in a more subtle way – like an exquisitely tailored suit, whose quality, originality and impeccable taste reveal themselves without the need for fanfare.

    And it has the pool – immortalised in the movies of synchronised swimmer Esther Williams; voted by Travel&Leisure magazine as one of the ten most beautiful in the world. This giant pastiche of baroque curves surrounded by Moroccan medjul palm trees can still decades on, elicit oohs and ahs from new guests taken with the sensational impact of the jewel like Art Deco lagoon.

    A consummate mix of style and understatement, of elegance and comfort, of glamour and warmth, an original Art Deco jewel.

  5. Designed by famed British architect David Chipperfield, merging two existing beach front properties with a brand new, purpose-built tower, Schrager later added his signature touches.

    The whole of the ground floor, leading all the way to the beach, has been turned into one seamless nocturnal play zone for grown-ups. The lighting is low, with a few thousand candles; the music is seductive and the design is a mix of every ethnic style that has ever contributed to the culture of chilling out – Greek tavern stools, Moroccan daybeds, Rajasthani palace chairs, African tribal stools, cushions and more cushions in hare Krishna colours. Rooms are loaded with the latest high-tech options, as well as more old-fashioned creature comforts such as plenty of closet space and enormous bathrooms.

    Redefining cool on Miami's South Beach, The Shore Club combines classic minimalist design with quirky twists.

  6. Soho Beach House

    Miami, USA

    The Soho Beach House stands resplendent on the edge of the Atlantic Ocean, juxtaposed against a never ending azure sky.

    As one of the hotel’s discerning guests you’ll be invited to spend your time as you please however, it wouldn’t be a trip to Miami without stepping foot onto the delicious white sand and letting the Ocean tickle your toes. Alternatively, you may wish to relax by the super long swimming pool, get hot and sweaty at the gym or feel the love at the wellness and beauty spa.

    If you’d prefer to experience the beach from afar, guest bedrooms range from bayside to beachside and all offer a view that is designed with nature in mind. The décor has a real vintage vibe going on with textiles and furniture that swing you right back to South America in its Art Deco heyday.

    The retro Latin theme continues throughout the building and is certainly upheld in the cool and stylish drawing room on the first floor. Comfortable sofas, armchairs and cushions galore, provide the perfect space to relax, try a cocktail or Cuban coffee, and enjoy the gentle tinkling of the Grand’s ivories.

    For more amazing views, in a refined and strictly adults-only setting, take a trip to the eighth floor where you’ll find a wood panelled library, private dining area and outdoor terrace bar that comes complete with plunge pool.

    After a hard day listening to the sound of the sea it’s easy to work up an appetite and Cecconi’s world renowned Italian restaurant is open for breakfast, lunch and dinner, 7 days a week. If you’ve been lucky enough to visit either the London or Hollywood restaurants then you’ll know that you’re in for a treat. Just make sure you leave room for the cicchetti and dolci menu that is served in the bar around midnight.

    Art-Deco luxury that’s right on the beach with exceptional views of the Ocean.

  7. One of the original Art Deco gems on Ocean Drive.
    First opened in 1936, the Tides is one of the most imposing examples of the elegant optimism that defined Miami’s Art Deco signature. Rescued from the wrecker’s ball by the rejuvenation of Ocean Drive in the late 1980’s, early 1990’s, the Tides reopened in 2007 with a stunning new interior designed by west coast based Kelly Wearstler.

    The Tides describes itself as the Diva of Ocean Drive. It is certainly the most glamorous and luxurious of all the hotels that line up along the strip dividing the buildings from the beach. With its distinct combination of vintage pieces, unusual textures (think tortoise shell, ebony, birch, etc), elegant furniture, striking lamps, huge sculptural pieces of driftwood, and acres of natural toned travertine; it is also, possibly, the most stylish.

    The single most desirable feature of the rooms at the Tides, is that they all face the ocean. Each of the suites, whether they be studios or apartments, have ocean views. Some also have very glamorous terraces and with an average size of 568 square-feet, they are amongst the most generously proportioned in South Beach.

    • The single most desirable feature of the rooms at the Tides, is that they all face the ocean and some also have very glamorous terraces.
    • In keeping with its heritage, the Coral Bar is the kind of bar you would expect someone like Errol Flynn to be parked for the night on its brass and faux hide stools. It’s a proper cocktail bar from the era that invented cocktails, cocktail hour and cocktail culture!
    • A sense of theatre and imagination set the tone for La Marea, the Tides’ celebrated restaurant. A wall of faux tortoise shells combines with canopied chairs, create a dining room completely in-step with its heritage and its setting.

  8. W South Beach

    Miami, USA

    Beach blanket Babylon. With 300 feet of ocean front, the W is the latest and perhaps most contemporary “player” on the South Beach scene.
    The rehabilitation of Miami South Beach continues unabated. With ten continuous miles of beach front it will be a long time before this part of the world has no more room for expansion.
    With each new property the stakes go up. Whereas cutting-edge design has been the norm for at least a decade and a half, cutting-edge architecture is the new benchmark and the W South Beach has set the bar very high.
    The name of the game in today’s Miami is features; lots of features. You are not a “player” unless you have at least more than one of everything. The W, not surprisingly, has six bars, two very large public pools, a handful of private pools, two restaurants of different themes, a state-of-the-art spa on three levels, a monumental gym, a W store, and 334 rooms.
