“The recent renovations added more color, comfort and contemporary amenities for guests who seek an authentic South Beach experience, either for a weekend or extended stay,” noted Gary Hyre, General Manager.
He reported that the $1 million “soft” color-focused renovation to the historic Art Deco landmark boutique 75-room, all-suite beachfront hotel property was completed in January 2012. Guest-focused enhancements include new sofa beds, flat-screen TVs, curtains, furniture, carpeting, fresh paint and upgraded linens in guest rooms and suites, and a refreshment of its Art Deco lobby; restaurant, and its intimate private dining room; Albert’s Place, and terrace; Arlington ballroom; meeting rooms and pool area and decks. A new hospitality room with an outdoor terrace fronting the Ocean Drive streetscape and private bar has been added and named “The Meeting Place,” to accommodate small meetings, private lunches and dinners and social gatherings of 10-20 guests.
Originally named The Savoy Plaza when built in 1935, the hotel acquired and merged properties in the last decade with the adjacent Arlington Hotel, built in the late 1930s and its property creating The Savoy Hotel, today’s two-acre beachfront paradise. Both three-story hotels, the former Savoy Plaza is a pure Art Deco structure designed by architect V.M. Neillenbogen and the Hotel Arlington is a Classical Revival Art Deco structure designed by Miami Beach architect Albert Anis. The Savoy Hotel property has two of the only four Pre-World War II beachside hotels left on South Beach. These are the remaining icons that show what the community was like prior to World War II in Miami Beach.
Guests have the benefit of choosing:
• the quiet, intimate and private retreat and lifestyle locals enjoy
• the eclectic collection of designer fashion boutiques and events, galleries, museums and dining SOBE visitors crave
• the love affair couples, honeymooners, brides and grooms dream about
• the ultimate “beachside business” setting executives and meeting planners seek
• the vibrancy and excitement of Ocean Drive that guests expect, and
• high profile destination events that ignite the area, annually drawing thousands of natives and vacationers from around the country and world
For those “ready for romance”, they will have a love affair with The Savoy. This beachfront oasis with its oceanfront sun decks that include spectacular ocean views and its intimate ballroom is popular for weddings…a favorite of local and destination wedding planners and brides and grooms and perfect for honeymooners and those celebrating anniversaries.
