Betsy-South Beach Expansion Underway, Includes New Rooftop Pool

The Betsy-South Beach recently announced a plan for renovation on their website, describing it as "a careful expansion of The Betsy, preserving our commitment to a high level of intimate, personalized service while adding facilities that will meaningfully enhance the guest experience."

The expansion of the acclaimed four-star boutique hotel -- one of only 14 Miami hotels to receive four or five stars by Forbes this year -- is already underway at the development built by architects L. Murray Dixon and Heny Hohauser.
