Ει βούλει καλώς ακούειν, μάθε καλώς λέγειν, μαθών δε καλώς λέγειν, πειρώ καλώς πράττειν, και ούτω καρπώση το καλώς ακούειν. (Επίκτητος)

Kimpton Hotels & Restaurants Announces New South Beach Hotel

Originally constructed in 1931 and later restored and revamped in 2007 now features The Angler’s Resort of 48 rooms split amongst four separate buildings.

We look forward to continuing our success here,” said Kimpton CEO and President Mike Depatie. “This is also an exciting addition for us as it further strengthens our portfolio in popular leisure markets, joining hotels we already have in Scottsdale, Aspen, Palm Springs, Vero Beach and Santa Barbara. “
