The Colony Hotel – Palm Beach, Florida
The Colony Hotel in Palm Beach, Florida is the epitome of style and class, offering its guests impeccable comfort and service.
From the moment we got out of our car and walked into The Colony Hotel, we felt like royalty. This boutique hotel in Palm Beach exudes style and sophistication, with their service being unmatched. Since 1947, the hotel has hosted US presidents, European royalty, and travelers wanting to bask in the warm Florida sun.
But just like a fine wine, The Colony Hotel has only gotten better with time. They recently went through a five-year, $18 million renovation! We loved the decor throughout the property and thought it went well with the original British Colonial architecture. The contrast between old and new is something we always enjoy and the bright colors instantly put you in a festive mood.
Check-in went smoothly, and we were told all about the hotel’s amenities. We were even given some champagne! Really guys, we felt like royalty the whole time we were there!
The fun and bright decor can be seen throughout the entire hotel, and we will admit to absolutely falling in love with the carpet…
The room was perfect as well. There was a comfy bed, small work table, TV, and a bathroom with the sparkliest (if that’s not a word, I just made it up lol) bathroom tile we’ve ever seen!
As far as dining goes, the Colony Hotel has a great restaurant called Polo. Yes, it is polo themed, so you’ll see photos and memorabilia throughout. They are open for breakfast, lunch, and dinner and also have a bar. You can sit inside, but we’d recommend sitting outside by the pool. Oh, did we mention there’s a pool??
But don’t fret, even if you have to mix in a little business with pleasure, The Colony Hotel has you covered. They have a business center above the lobby with the typical things you might need.
Pro Tip: The Colony Hotel is the perfect base for a “Foodcation” and we enjoyed getting to know a bit more about the area through a Taste History food tour.
The Colony Hotel is also in a great location. It’s literally a few minutes walk to Midtown Beach which is considered one of Palm Beach’s best beaches! The Colony Hotel will provide complimentary sun umbrellas and beach chairs, so there’s no excuse not to check out the beautiful beach!
We loved our stay at The Colony Hotel and would recommend it in a heartbeat. It’s a gorgeous property with impeccable service and in a great location.

**A big thank you to The Colony Hotel! Although we were offered a complimentary stay, as always, all opinions are our own.**
Everything looks so beautiful! The thing that I liked the most is how they manage to make a combination of the new and old in one place! They also have an interesting history; being visited by many important people is a big deal.
Hi Dario! We completely agree, we love the old and new styles as well!
Wow this place looks really swish. I like that while it is luxury, it doesn’t have that sterile look that a lot of hotels do. It definitely seems to have its own personality.
It definitely does Kate! 🙂
Seems like you had a great time Vicky. The bar at Polo seems like my kind of thing 😉
There was a retirement party the night we were there and EVERYONE was having a great time! 😀
It does have an impressive guest list! And the most impressive thing that caught my attention is the pattern on the carpet and sofa. 🙂 I also like it is located near a beach.
We loved that pattern too! And yes, it’s a quick walk to the beach. So perfect!
I love what I saw in this post. The Colony Hotel is so neat and beautiful. And what more, it’s near the beach: perfect location. If I ever visit, I’d be considering a Foodcation like you suggested.
The Colony kind of reminds me of pictures of Cuba. It looks like a step back into time to stay here. I would love to explore all the common areas of the hotel just to see what I can find there.
The architecture and decor looks classy and stylish! The polo-themed restaurant is a fun concept. Love that they provide beach chairs, etc. for the beach so you don’t have to worry about those. I’ll definitely keep this hotel in mind if I am in that area!
Wow! This hotel is very classy and instagramable. I literally say wow on that carpet on the hallway. It’s awesome! The room designed is well places. The bed looks so comfortable. Would love to stay here!
Looks like an adorable hotel, with lovely interiors. I love the green leafy floor, feels like you’re walking on a bed of leaves. And the bar is the place I’d spend some time at 😉
Looks like a great stay! I love the hotel’s vibrant color palette. Love the pic of you sipping your champagne in the chair. So cute! One of my dear friends recently passed away and he worked there. Used to be our country club’s general manager for 15 years.
Love your colorful review of the bright decor and friendly customer service at The Colony Hotel in Palm Beach, Florida. They’re good partners hosting guests who take Taste History Culinary Tours.
Can the restaurant and pool be used if you are not a guest at the hotel?
Hi Abby! The restaurant can be used; they have an outside entrance. I’m not sure about the pool though.
