Frommer's "This venerable Deco hotel has gone through an identity crisis over the past few years, but we think it may be over." Full review
Insight Guides "Understated stylishness is the hallmark of this trendy Art Deco hotel. Bedrooms - mostly suites - and their wall-to-wall marble bathrooms come in muted creams and beiges."
Travel + Leisure "This Art Deco hotel in South Beach is just two blocks from the famed Ocean Drive and the beach." Full review
DK Eyewitness "Chic, comfortable Asto offers small, yet soothing, rooms with Frette linens, mood lighting, and snug mattresses."
Time Out "The intimate lobby is softly illuminated and decorated in sandy hues, while the elegant bedrooms boast European king-size beds, imported cotton sheets and fleecy robes in the marble bathrooms." Full review
Star Service "This hotel is one the neighborhood's showplaces for travelers in search of understated South Beach elegance." Full review
Gayot "Built in 1936, this 40-room hotel was completely refurbished in 2002. It has retained many of its original Art Deco elements such as terrazzo floors and aluminum fixtures."
BlackBook "Deco standout that's chic and cozy at the same time. The lighting is very flattering as are the rooms with Frette linens and towels that are hard not to throw in your knock-off Birkin bag."

"There's nothing luxurious about all-vintage, authentically nicked furniture (except maybe the price)." Full review
Travel + Leisure "A 1940 Art Deco masterpiece that served as a backdrop for many Esther Williams films, this hotel delivers the grace and pure fantasy of old-line Miami." Full review
DK Eyewitness "The Raleigh is now a happening celebrity magnet, with a restaurant and 20sstyle bar that remains true to the hotel’s Art Deco origins."
Condé Nast Traveler71.2
"The French-inflected Raleigh is like France itself: effortlessly chic, impossibly seductive, and occasionally vexing." Full review
Time Out "It now boasts all mod cons, down to bedside buttons controlling everything from lights to room temperature." Full review
Star Service "Located at 18th Street, on the golden fringes of South Beach, on the quieter north end of hotel row...this place is a stylish underdog with a notable glam-factor." Full review
Gayot "Despite its rich history, the 1940s, beachfront Raleigh Hotel feels fated for the 21st century."
