One of the most photographed Art Deco hotels along famed South Beach, The Colony is a renovated 1939 hotel that offers an intoxicating ambiance and fun in the sun for guests who just want to get away to relax and enjoy all that Miami Beach has to offer.
The façade of the Colony Hotel is synonymous with the Art Deco roots and influences of Ocean Drive’s 1930’s architecture. The original pipe railings, the concrete cantilevered overhangs, and the now world renowned blue neon sign of the Colony Hotel are a present day reminder of the original street-scape.
The Colony was one of the first hotels to be constructed by Henry Hohauser, the Art Deco District’s most famous and influential architect, back in 1935. The hotel has been renovated and remodeled extensively since that time, but the integrity of the its true Deco roots have never been compromised and has been included in the National Register of Historic Places.
The hotel caters to visitors looking to escape the structured corporate environment and the vacationer who wants to come to relax and enjoy sun-filled days and fun-filled nights. Everything that people enjoy about South Beach is literally at the doorstep of the Colony Hotel. Guests are within walking distance to South Beach boutique shops at the Lincoln Road Shopping Mall, restaurants, nightclubs, spas, other world-famous sites like the former Versace Mansion.
For all the many great attractions Miami has to offer, millions visit the area for its seemingly most desirable destination… the beach! With the sandy beaches located just steps from the front door of the Colony Hotel, guests of the hotel can experience jogging down the world famous walkway, sunbathing, swimming, volleyball, watersports, meditation, and daily picturesque sunrises and sunsets.
