The Chesterfield luxury hotel on Palm Beach is located close to the beach and the designer boutiques of Worth Avenue. A Palm Beach institution, this luxury hotel has a guestbook full of high society and celebrity names.

The facilities

The luxury hotel's iconic Leopard Lounge and Restaurant is Palm Beach's place to see and be seen in. The restaurant serves upscale international cuisine using local, seasonal ingredients. At night, get a drink at the bar in the scarlet-walled main room, or retire to the clubby Churchill's Cigar Room for a cognac on one of the leather sofas.

The Chesterfield's European influence shows in its Spanish-mansion design and the English High Tea served every afternoon in the wood panelled library. Guests get the best of both worlds, though, by enjoying the decidedly modern outdoor heated pool and Jacuzzi.

The rooms

Reach the luxury hotel's 53 air-conditioned guestrooms by leopard-print carpeted corridors. The rooms' eclectic, luxe-beachhouse feel is created by flowered fabrics, jaunty colour-clashes and antique-style white wood furniture with brass hardware. Goodies include Frette linens and high speed internet access.
