Palm Beach & West Palm Beach Hotel Top Picks!


Looking for a Palm Beach or West Palm Beach Hotel for your Florida vacation? We have done some homework and picked some of the best places to stay in this area of Florida.

Palm Beach and West Palm Beach Florida are known as a hot spot for some of the world's most famous and wealthy people. Known for its culture, both West Palm and Palm Beach offer an array of hotels that range from very affordable and elegant to high class and well worth the price.

If you decide to visit this area of Florida you will enjoy the Florida beaches, A1A highway, Donald Trump's Mar-a-lago, the million dollar mansions, Worth Avenue, fabulous restaurants, and so much more.

Note that West Palm and Palm Beach are extensions of one another. West Palm is on the mainland of Florida and Palm Beach is an island of sorts. You will find better rates at a West Palm Beach hotel, but if you can afford the higher prices, we suggest you rub elbows with the wealthy in Palm Beach. Be wary that this area has an inside culture that you may not like- Old Money goes a long way we found out.

This page is set up to provide a list of our favorite Palm Beach and West Palm Beach hotel choices. We'll provide our top 3 choices for either destination and you can read more at our favorite travel website, Trip Advisor (links at the bottom).

As you search our recommendation is to be wary of location. Some of the top spots are located well off the beaches of Florida, so we suggest you try to stay east of I-95 or even highway 1. This of course depends on the type of Florida vacation you are going on.

Palm Beach & West Palm Beach Top Picks The Breakers Florida Hotel Palm Beach
This luxurious hotel is always featured as one of the best hotels in Florida and the world. It is a true escape to luxury that you will never forget.

5-star and first class all the way that if you can afford the price tag each night, you won't regret it.

The Breakers Florida hotel, as one Florida traveler put it, is purely heaven.




Tropical Gardens Bed and Breakfast

This is a West Palm Beach hotel that for the affordable price is a steal in this region of Florida.

It may not be The Breakers Florida hotel, but you will definitely remember your stay at this charming little hotel located in the Old Northwood area.



Biba West Palm Beach Hotel

The wonderful design and uniqueness of this Florida hotel is why we put it on our recommendations list.

You will get a great atmosphere, excellent location, and overall a very cool place to stay with this West Palm Beach Hotel.

A class 3 hotel, many travelers have enjoyed their stay and also enjoyed the discount prices you can receive with this spot.



The Brazilian Court of Palm Beach Florida

This one is a top find in Palm Beach according to many travelers. A short walk from Worth Avenue, this Old World Palm Beach Mediterranean-style hotel dates from the 1920s offers excellent service and stay and has been labeled an icon of Palm Beach.



Other Palm Beach & West Palm Beach Hotels to look into

* Hampton Inn has a couple of West Palm Beach hotel locations. We happened to find some good reviews on either spot, but found them to be further from the beaches than we like.

* Palm Beach has other luxurious hotels to compare to The Breakers Florida Hotel and The Brazilian. This list includes, The 4 Seasons Resort Palm, Chesterfield Hotel, Plaza Inn, and The Ambassador.

* As for other West Palm Beach hotel choices, you should consider Parkview Motor Lodge, Comfort Inn, Crowne Plaza, and Marriott West.

* For the best price and highest ratings, we found Fairfield Inn and Suites a good hotel if you are on a tight budget.

These are our top choices for a Palm Beach or West Palm Beach hotel. Prices will vary in this region from very affordable to quite expensive as we don't suggest this as the best region for a discount Florida vacaiton.

However, we had a great time in West Palm Beach on our honeymoon and may go back one day when we strike it rich. We do suggest you do your homework if you are heading to this part of Florida.

The Palm Beach and West Palm Beach hotel reviews have varied extensively so take them with a grain of salt. Be sure you pick the right location if you want to be on the beach or near any of the key attractions including Worth Avenue, Peanut Island, the Flagler Museum, and so on.

Do take the Water Taxi and make sure you spend some time driving up and down the coast on highway A1A! Plus, if you want great food, make sure to book an evening at Charley's Crab and the City Cellar Wine Grill and Bar.
