Century Hotel

The Art Deco three-story building on Ocean Drive's southern stretch, Century Hotel keeps its original terrazzo lobby floor and curved streamline-moderne facade one block from the Lummus Park beach entrance. Rooms sit above the avenue's restaurant row rather than a side street, so guests trade quiet for direct sand access.

South Pointe Park anchors the strip's far end, a ten-minute walk past the cafes and vintage shops that define South Beach's historic district. The location suits travelers prioritizing beach proximity and nightlife over off-strip calm.
