Property Description

The Clinton Hotel is making waves in South Beach with the completion of a three-year, multi-million makeover into a chic, French-inspired boutique. The 88-room property, which just added a spa, is now a one-of-a-kind playground and hideaway, transformed from "a last survivor of old Miami Beach." Its exterior structure is a 75-year old Art Deco classic by architect Charles Niedler. Typically, the pool is in a concealed, spacious garden courtyard.U.S. "First" for Parisian Designer:Interior design is by French architect and designer Eric Raffy, so notable that many guests ask if they can purchase duplicates of the furniture, lighting fixtures, even the drinking glasses created exclusively for The Clinton and manufactured in the USA. (The answer is yes, that the hotel will make them available.) The Clinton's lobby is swanky a-la-mode and awash in whimsy. A white environment is dramatized with splashy accents of color, the ceiling constantly changing with color projections. Plushy, comfortable lavender love seats are on wheels. The carpet is designed to look like the movement of the ocean.A fashionable signature feature is a laced-corset motif that ornaments mirrors, banquettes and guest room chairs. The ultra-charming lobby is a see and be seen gathering spot with funky and playful furnishings perfect for mingling over cocktails at the raised platform bar. "We're putting the guests on show," said Raffy.The hotel is managed by a former manager of The Waldorf-Astoria, so you know what quality of service and housekeeping to expect. General Manager's Rafael Barrera's office, European-style, is right off the lobby, always open to guests. He says, "My staff is trained to surpass guest expectations."Parisian-born owner, Simon Nemni, is an internationalist so the hotel lobby boasts an espresso bar that also serves pastries and Italian paninis, and a gelateria with a galaxy of flavors.Quality Dining:The hotel's sleek restaurant is named Pao (appropriately pronounced Pow!)
