This hotel's modern amenities bring a feeling of Miami to Fort Lauderdale Beach. Its more trendy than the Ritz Carlton, with several "hot spots" and a sleek pool area with ocean views. This is the place for the Jet Set. Breakfast at 954 will run you $25 per person, so bring your wallet or your running shoes to walk the 1/2 mile to strip.
This place is a good walk from the main beach action, although much of the action is in this hotel itself. Its a bit pricey for many to hang out here exclusively however.
