If Paris or Florence is not part of your immediate travel plans, consider slipping away to the historic Hotel St. Michel. Located in lovely Coral Gables, Florida, about a 10-minute drive from Miami, this charming European-style boutique hotel first opened in 1926 and has been painstakingly restored to its original grandeur. The three-story, ivy-draped retreat boasts elements of Spanish design, a popular style of architecture in this region some 80 years ago. The intimate collection of 28 rooms each have their own characteristics, with English and French antiques, windows cloaked in floral fabrics, and a vintage elegance not found in modern hotels. Your stay is celebrated daily with a continental breakfast, evening chocolates and in-room fruit baskets replenished frequently. You will also find complimentary wireless internet service throughout the property, allowing you to tend to business if necessary.

Nearest Airport: MIA
I really enjoy staying at Hotel St Michel in Coral Gables. It’s a small, older hotel and it has such character. If you are looking for a huge, cookie cutter hotel like Marriott or Hilton, The St Michel is not it. I think this hotel is quiet and very romantic. It’s great for a solo person on a business trip or a romantic getaway for a couple to Miami. It’s conveniently located close to Miracle Mile for shopping. I always find the employees to be respectful and helpful.

I just spent one night here in between flights. It is very convenient from MIA airport, just a 15 minute taxi ride, so as quick as going downtown and shorter than Miami Beach. The hotel is a bit of a classic in the architecture, with a feeling like you stepped back to the 1950s or so. In fact the elevators are still operated manually! This can be a bit of a pain if you are in a hurry, but a quirky touch I think. My room was the opposite: totally modern. The price was moderate, and better than a lot of similar quality hotels downtown. I'd definitely stay here again, especially in transit overnight from the airport.

Excelente location, fast check in , our room was ready upon arrival around lunch time. There is very good restaurant inside the hotel. The old elevator is an experience, our room very comfortable with a beautiful smell super clean. Comfortable bed and nice linen. Staff are very polite. Great place to stay.

I used to live close by and always wanted to stay at this hotel. Now that I live elsewhere, I had the perfect opportunity while visiting friends. The hotel is small, unique, extremely clean, and everything I wanted it to be. There’s so much charm in the details. My room also had an incredible shower. (See pictures.) The person at the front desk is professional and kind. I will definitely be staying here again in the future.

Very nice boutique hotel with European flare, great location if you want to be in the Coral Gables area. Excellent restaurant. You can walk or take the free trolley to go move and there are lots of restaurants near by. I would definitly recommend this hotel
