Betsy Hotel

Top choice in South Beach


One of South Beach's finest hotels, the Betsy was named 'one of the world's best hotels' in 2017. It is an historic gem with two wings, and rooms set in either a colonial style or an art-deco aesthetic – don't miss the view from the outside of the Dali-esque 'Orb' that joins the two buildings.

Thoughtful touches include orchids in the rooms, a 24-hour fitness center, two swimming pools and rather curious bathroom mirrors with inbuilt LCD TVs.
