Contemporary Art Deco
Located in the centre of Ocean Drive, the Hotel Victor is surrounded by trendy cafés, bars and restaurants of South Beach. It is right next door to Casa Casuarina, formerly known as the Versace Mansion, which is now an exclusive club for A-list celebrities. The beach is opposite the hotel, beyond Lummus Park, and the designer shops of Collins Avenue are just one block away. This luxury hotel is within easy walking distance of the shops and restaurants on Lincoln Road and the Convention Centre.
This delightful boutique hotel has retained some of its finest Art Deco touches in its extensive lobby and bar areas. Originally designed in 1937 by L.Murray Dixon, the Art Deco architect, French designer Jacques Garcia supervised a $48 million renovation in 2003. He cleverly captured the essence of the Art Deco history and mixed it with more modern comforts to create a pleasingly modern luxury hotel which is never dull. Throughout its long history this boutique hotel has welcomed many celebrities and wealthy patrons through its doors.
Offering all the amenities you would expect of a top luxury hotel, the Hotel Victor has a fully fitted gym and fitness room, meeting rooms, an outdoor swimming pool and a bar and restaurant. Offering a luxurious spa with hammam for the ultimate oasis of tranquility, the Hotel Victor is certainly one of the most talked-about luxury hotels in Miami.
Even the most basic guest rooms have luxury bedding, gorgeous designer décor and bead-fringed wall lamps in the effect of jellyfish. Luxury bathrooms have marble baths with deep soaking bathtubs. The ocean view rooms are well worth requesting for the stunning white sand and aquamarine ocean views with ships passing on the horizon. The magnificent penthouse includes an infinity edge tub in the master bedroom and a private terrace with hot tub and ample furniture for entertaining. A gourmet Viking kitchen, dining room and lounge area come complete with plasma screens and surround sound stereo entertainment.
Take drinks on the Vue Terrace, overlooking the cruising cars and people-watchers on Ocean Drive, or try V bar with its vodka bar made from solid ice. The hotel’s signature restaurant ‘Vix’ offers total food euphoria in smart Art Deco surroundings. The curved lines and pastel colours continue throughout this luxury hotel and complement the vaunted jellyfish aquarium with its neon-lit jellyfish residents. The Hotel Victor is highly recommended for those who must be in on the action of Ocean Drive and want to appreciate the fabulous Art Deco history of South Beach from a five star luxury hotel environment.
