I’ve had the pleasure of first visiting Palm Beach for my Bachelorette weekend already two+ years ago. It is the ultimate destination for a girl’s weekend. Amazing dining, one of a kind boutiques, and all of the prettiest lined streets you can handle! While I’ll be sharing a more in-depth travel guide later, I wanted to highlight one of the island’s hotels that could serve as your home away from home. Let me introduce you to The Chesterfield!
The Location
The perfectly pink building on Cocoanut Row has been a hotel since 1926. Originally called The Lido-Venice, it sits just a few blocks from famous Worth Avenue. That means it’s right in the middle of all the action! Although it’s tucked away on a quieter side street, you’ll be able to reach all of the best restaurants and boutiques in under ten minutes. Take advantage of the hotel’s complimentary valet and you won’t have to worry about your car for the entire weekend.
The Rooms
I honestly first fell in love with this hotel while daydreaming of places to stay in London. The Chesterfield Palm Beach is part of the Red Carnation Hotel Collection with hotels all over the world, but the only one in the United States. Like its cousin, the Chesterfield Mayfair in London, each of the 42 rooms are individually designed to match the vibrance of Palm Beach. Think of a healthy blend of pastels, florals, and patterns. When you first check in to your room, there’s a slight thrill in not knowing which design you’re going to get.
The Leopard Lounge
Almost every fantastic hotel has a great cocktail lounge to go with. Well, that is certainly true with The Chesterfield. The mood at the Leopard Lounge is dark and imitate, with a familiar classic feel. It reminded me of some of my favorite bars in Manhattan. Frank Sinatra and Louis Armstrong are the perfect musical companions as you sip a cocktail or two. I highly recommend the French Martini.
Afternoon Tea Time
Keeping in tune with the hotel’s British roots, The Chesterfield serves an afternoon tea. I cannot recommend this enough! There’s a long list of teas to choose from, but the real star is the tray of tea sandwiches and cakes. I may need to start making cucumber sandwiches at home for myself. Relax in the Chesterfield Courtyard with your best girlfriends and a pot of tea.
There are so many incredible hotels in Palm Beach. Each with its own sense of charm and style. If you’re looking for a destination with refinement and class, then The Chesterfield is the place for you. Book your own girl’s weekend in the land of pink and green today!
