THE WHITELAW HOTEL & LOUNGE
is a shining Pearl in the South Beach area. Conveniently located right in Miami Beach's Art deco district, the Whitelaw Hotel is a boutique hotel in one of the hottest spots in all Florida. Their slogan reads, "clean sheets, hot water, stiff drinks". It is upscale and sophisticated, with shag carpets, patent leather and aluminum.
The clean sheets are Belgian, the hot water falls onto marble, and the stiff drinks are served up at the 808 Bar, where "BOND MEETS BARBARELLA", a retro vodka bar featuring martinis, champagne, espresso drinks, and deserts.
"With a slogan that reads "clean sheets, hot water and stiff drinks," the whitelaw hotel stands apart from the other boutique hotels with a fierce sense of humor, but never compromising on its fabulous amenities"
- Frommer's 2002
"Even smaller, cooler, and a little less expensive is Mercury's sister hotel, the Whitelaw. It's 1960's, shaggy carpeting, all white, and so cool"
- Jada Pinkett Smith interview in American Way Magazine
"The stylish Whitelaw Hotel offers something I've never seen in any hotel - a small lobby bar with free drinks from (7-8pm) nightly for guests or anyone passing through. It's the brainchild of General Manager Linsey Harris who trots out bottles of premium liquors - Beefeater Gin, Dewars Scotch, Absolut Vodka and a silver tub of ice"
- The Washington Times 2000
The Whitelaw clearly has a sense of irony, fitting the beds with luxe Belgian sheets while lining the floors with old school shag carpeting. Rooms are minimalist, yet not screaming with that insane asylum, straitjacket vibe., and there are free cocktails in the lobby nightly. This is a place where you can let your hair down and show your true roots. And it's hard to resist a hotel whose motto is 'clean sheets, hot water, stiff drinks'
- Time Out New York
"The Whitelaw - whose decor is indeed almost all white - is located at the heart of the South Beach action, near trendy shopping like Versace. The property's motto is "Clean sheets, hot water, stiff drinks", because there are free libations for the guests - many of them gay and good-looking - every day at cocktail hour."
- Out Magazine, April 2003
