This bold new chapter for the Delano honours the legacy of its predecessor while redefining it for a new era. The hotel marks the U.S. debut of Paris Society, a leading global hospitality group headquartered in Dubai and Paris, with the opening of Mimi Kakushi and Gigi Rigolatto, two of its most acclaimed restaurant concepts arriving on American shores for the first time. The Source by Delano, a new wellness concept, will redefine a holistic social spa experience for visitors and Miami locals alike. Guests will also be able to explore a tailored retail space, as well as engaging in a reimagination of the beloved Rose Bar, the famed original venue from the previous incarnation of Delano.
Entering the lobby, guests will be immersed in the rich heritage of the hotel, greeted by a reimagining of the property’s classic white curtains lining the walls, incorporation of the original Salvador Dalí “Leda Chair” and the statement walk-way that connects the spiral staircase to second floor spaces as well as The Source. Auditory arrangements complimented by the animated hum of conversation accompany the unmistakably Delano atmosphere, where immersion is elevated further through the mild permeation of the beloved signature fragrance. Not to be missed are The Calvet Chair by Antoni Gaudí, Lenny Kravitz’s The Lucite Piano and Murano glass Narcisso chandeliers.
The historic Delano Pool has been carefully restored to its signature elegance, reinforcing its status as the centerpiece of the hotel’s vibrant outdoor experience. In its modern iteration, the pool will serve as the centerpiece of the culinary destination Gigi Rigolatto, the crowning accent to the inviting and celebratory environment.
