Property Information
Description: The Dorchester Hotel is of Mediterranean style, built in 1939 by famous Architect Frank Wyatt Woods. It is a three story building that wraps around a garden patio. Decorative keystone panels, terrazo floors and a metal grillwork with the hotel's initial letter have been preserved. The Dorchester Hotel is a historic Art Deco Style hotel constructed originally in 1938 and redecorated in 1992. Our commitment to offer the most congenial informal atmosphere in Miami Beach for the natural relaxation of our guests. In 1950, Nat King Cole entertained in Miami Beach frequently and often visited at the Dorchester Hotel. His manager and staff lived at the Dorchester Hotel nevertheless. Regretfully, Nat King Cole was not allowed to stay overnight in any hotel in Miami Beach and had to stay in Liberty City. Infamous Mafia figures Joe Banana and Tony Genovese made the Dorchester Hotel their home in the early 1950's where they plotted the Mexican Peso speculation scandal. They did not venture outside but used a back room where the Fand G Syndicate conducted illegal bookmaking operations. Nowadays the Art Deco influence has revived and the glamour of the old buildings has come alive. Come to Miami Beach, experience our hotel and feel the beauty and excitement of this tropical paradise. Amenities include the Breakfast Cafe with inside and patio service. We offer a Billiard Room, swimming pool and sun deck adjacent to our spacious garden patio with BBQ facilities available for guest picnics. Security includes fully automated fire sprinkler system and new fire alarm system in guest and public rooms. We offer safety deposit boxes for guests at no charge.
