Denihan to reopen Royal Palm spa hotel in Miami
US-based hotel operator Denihan Hospitality Group is to launch and manage a The James-branded luxury hotel on South Beach, Miami, Florida.
The 390-room The James Royal Palm will be located at the historic Royal Palm Hotel which is currently being redeveloped by Denihan. An opening date has been scheduled for late 2012.
Plans for the art deco-style property, which is owned by KSL Capital Partners, include a full-service spa, two swimming pools and a beachfront restaurant while interiors will be designed by Lauren Rottet of the Rottet Studio.
The hotel is Denihan's first The James-branded hotel in Florida.
KSL Capital, with offices in Denver and New York, owns travel and leisure properties throughout North America, including the Grand Wailea Resort Hotel & Spa and Arizona Biltmore Resort & Spa, as well as Dallas-based ClubCorp and Orion Expedition Cruises of Sydney, Australia.
