It’s located in a historic South Beach building. Now take a peek at this hotel’s new renovations.

While The Gates South Beach (2360 Collins Ave., South Beach; 305-860-9444) has technically occupied the property on Collins Avenue once home to the historic, mid-century Ankara Motel for about a year, the hotel is now ready to debut the transformation into its own identity.

The property was originally restored and developed as Aloft South Beach in July 2015. It sold in September 2016 for $105 million to Rockpoint Group, a Boston-based real estate investment company which changed the property to The Gates as a DoubleTree by Hilton.

So what’s new at the charming property now that its renovation is complete?

Common Areas

With clean mid-century architectural lines, The Gates adheres to a cool color palette of dusty pinks, sea foam, teal and honey-hued hardwood inside the lobby, which is anchored by a sculptural staircase and concrete breeze block walls.
