Book a Stay


The Wall Street Journal travels to literary hotels, here.

From the piece...

Sheer Poetry in Miami

Literature isn't the first thing that comes to mind when you think South Beach. But at the Betsy hotel, guests can expect poetry readings, as well as art openings and concerts. The owner's father was poet Hyam Plutzik, a Pulitzer Prize finalist, and bookmarks embedded with flower seeds and inscribed with lines of his poetry are left on pillows at turndown. The Betsy has beach reading covered, too: Every room has a selection of books, and the on-site bookstore sells works by the likes of Malcolm Gladwell and Rick Moody. From $325 per night, 1440 Ocean Dr.; thebetsyhotel.com
