Royal Palm Hotel Miami

Designed in 1939 by Donald G. Smith as a four-story resort, the hotel was expanded two years later to seven stories. In the early 1940’s the Royal Palm Hotel was among 300 Miami Beach properties that served as military barracks, mess halls, classrooms, and other facilities for the approximately half a million troops that trained here during the war. In October 1945, it reopened for the first post-war vacationers. During the 1950’s and early 1960’s, Miami Beach had its most glamorous heydays. Sinatra, Elvis, Dean Martin, Sammy Davis Jr., Jackie Gleason, and The Beatles all came to perform in Miami Beach...

We checked out two rooms including one with a mini-balcony.
This older property has a mix of classic Art Deco design and some modern updates.
