The Betsy
Miami Beach, USA
The Betsy Hotel
A handsome beachfront property in sunny South Beach
An intriguing departure from the many Art Deco buildings in Miami Beach, The Betsy Hotel is the sole surviving example of Florida Georgian architecture on Ocean Drive. Its impressive, four-columned portico and plantation-style shutters belie the hotel’s relaxed tropical interiors with a wellness garden, a rooftop solarium and an exclusive BLT Steak restaurant.
Specifically designed to provide an atmosphere of low-key elegance, The Betsy’s rooms and suites are appointed in shades of white with stylish accents of ochre, coral and green. Original, signed photography adorn the walls, plus room libraries provide a good book selection to enjoy by the hotel’s secluded courtyard pool or on the beach.
For great views of the ocean, relax at the rooftop solarium and wellness garden. Or, request a picnic basket to take to the beach. As night falls, join Celebrity Chef, Laurent Tourondel at the hotel’s BLT Steak to experience his unique interpretation of steakhouse dining.
