Biltmore Hotel Miami Coral Gables, 1200 Anastasia Avenue, Coral Gables, Florida, USA / Architect: Schultze & Weaver / Floors: 15 / Height: 314.96 ft / Completed: 1926 / Architectural Style: Spanish Colonial Revival

The Biltmore Hotel Miami Coral Gables was designated a National Historic Landmark in the year 1996. It is a Spanish colonial revival high-rise building with 15 floors and towering at 314.96 ft in height.

On April 18, 2012, the AIA's Florida Chapter placed the building on its list of Florida Architecture: 100 Years. 100 Places as the Biltmore Hotel.

The Biltmore was one of the most fashionable resorts in the United States in its heyday, hosting royalty of both the European and Hollywood variety. The Duke and Duchess of Windsor, Ginger Rogers, Judy Garland and Bing Crosby were frequent guests here. In fact, everyone who was anyone - from politicians like President Franklin D. Roosevelt to notorious gangsters like Al Capone – stayed at The Biltmore, where they enjoyed fashion shows, gala balls, aquatic shows in the 23,000 square foot grand pool, elaborate weddings and world-class golf tournaments.

When the Jazz Age was at full cry, the Biltmore’s big bands entertained wealthy, well-traveled visitors at this American Riviera resort. Challenged by America’s economic lulls in the late 1920's and early 1930's, The Biltmore thrived by hosting aquatic galas that drew crowds and kept the hotel in the spotlight.
