I came across this location, since my new office is situated in this amazing hotel. Miami in general is great but Miami beach is better because there’s a lot of diversity and fun things to do. The hotel is right in front of the beach and if you are not a huge fan of salt water there’s also a pool in the back. I really recommend this hotel and I guarantee you won’t regret it. The rooms are very large, clean and extremely spacious, fully equipped, The size of this room is just as large as a decent size home, closet alone is the size of my actual living room space. Very impressive. Great to rent and have a bachelor party or for friends coming from outer state and want to have a getaway weekend. The hotel inspired is very posh with a lot of marble, statues and mirrors, lots of mirrors, its very high end, gangster mob themed. Loved it. Actually if you do a little research the Owner of this hotel a while back was Larsky and the architect was the same one who designed the Grand Riviera in Cuba(one of Cuba’s most luxurious hotel. Al Capone used to own a condo here too. For those who like history a little history will take you back and then you will understand better the setup of this hotel and its inspired interior.

This building should be called the Imperial Russian House. If you don’t know what I mean, I am implying that the decoration pays tribute to the Russian Imperial style of design. The best reference I can give you for this style would be the State Hermitage Museum in St. Petersburg, although we need not go so far and just look at the front of The Forge, which is a mixture of Art Deco and Imperial style. That said, everything inside is an ode to the Imperial style. The doors are painted in pastel colors and trimmed with gold. There are gold framed mirrors everywhere, reproductions of antique lamps, furniture, and glass chandeliers that could actually be glass of Bohemia. Needless to say, the look is somewhat outdated but it actually doesn’t offend. Actually, if you live on the beach, this is your everyday Miami Beach kitsch. You will never figure out this building from the outside. No Imperial carriage sits outside, giving you a forewarning of what to expect once inside. And things should remain like this to properly accommodate The Hidden Kitchen.
