Effortlessly refined, gracious with a touch of wit, and filled with 20th and 21st-century original artwork, the design for the White Elephant Palm Beach is a contemporary interpretation of Mediterranean revival architecture. Built in the 1920s and designated a historic landmark in 1980, the hotel has undergone a “down to the bones” reimagining to create 13 rooms and 19 suites that honor historic preservation criteria. The result: a gracious four-story hotel – residential in scale and feel – with museum-quality artwork that provides guests a truly personal, memorable, layered experience.
