"Sceney it's not, but scenic? Absolutely. With its towering ceilings, sultry furnishings, and massive gilded mirrors, the elegant 1940s-style National is a Deco darling." Full review

"The Cadet is a different type of South Beach experience. There are no views of the beach, and the vibe is more B&B than SoBe Cool." Full review
