Would stay here again
The location on Las Olas blvd was great- accessible to the water taxi stop as well as private boat tours. Our room was huge and clean with a beautiful view of the river and the strip in the distance. The restaurants and bars in the hotel were good and convenient but with its location on Las Olas blvd the choices of places to eat are endless. A quick ride to the airport was also a great perk.

Great hotel on Las Olas
We enjoy staying at this hotel. So much to do on Las Olas. So many restaurants to walk to. We were there 3 nights. Each morning, we walked to the ocean. It is exactly 2.0 miles from the hotel door to A1A. We had a good lunch and Sangrias their the Golden Lyon bar. Hotels.com gave us great pricing to make our 3 nights more affordable than other hotels.
