Miami's Hip Wynwood Neighborhood to Get its First Hotel

Arlo Hotels has announced that it will debut Arlo Wynwood this October. The property will be the first hotel to open in Miami’s creative and cultural district, which is home to the largest concentration of street art in the world. The 217-room, nine-story hotel is expected to serve as the cultural hub for residents and visitors.

"Wynwood is one of the most vibrant districts in Miami. We’ve been eager to develop a hotel in the neighborhood, and with an increasing number of tech-forward businesses moving their headquarters to Wynwood, we feel this is a great time. The year-over-year hotel occupancy in the broader downtown market has grown nearly 30 percent,” said Oleg Pavlov, CEO of Quadrum Global and founder of Arlo Hotels."

Designed by Meyer Davis, Arlo Wynwood has modern guestrooms that sport white-oak furnishings. In-room amenities include tech-friendly features such as bedside wireless charging stations, Bluetooth radios, 55-inch LED TVs with staycast capabilities, and complimentary Wi-Fi, as well as mini-fridges, Nespresso coffee machines and Pharmacopia bath products.

The hotel's rooftop will offer a pool, private cabanas, a bar and café, and a yoga deck. Other property facilities include a 2,666-square-foot destination restaurant with indoor and outdoor seating, plus three bars, a bodega and a pool table. Guests will also have access to a fitness center and complimentary bikes to explore the neighborhood. 

As part of Arlo Hotels’ commitment to wellness, the property will offer a steady beat of programming, including daily yoga classes led by local favorite YO BK, and weekly meditation sessions, open to both hotel guests and locals. A weekly lineup of local guest DJs and live music activations, will keep the hotel buzzing day and night. 

On the yoga deck, Florida-based collage artist Ari Robinson is creating a plexiglass mural of overlapping organic shapes of varying sizes and hues that will produce unique color combinations, shadows and reflections. The property’s exterior walls will include works by Miami-based artist Hoxxoh, known for his “spheres of life” that illustrate the motions of space and time, and from MILAGROS Collective, whose co-founders Felici Asteinza and Joey Fillastre will create site-specific work, exploring the history of the community. Arlo Wynwood’s interiors will display more than 250 works of art from a range of artists, including Alain Castoriano, Coruna Luna, Jessica Poundstone, Joe Geis, Lauren Williams, Matthias Lupri, Ryan Coleman and Tom Abbiss, among others.

Arlo Wynwood sits near of some of Miami’s trendiest retail stores, antique shops, eclectic bars, artisan eateries and more than 250 art galleries. 

“It is hard to believe that despite attracting more than 10 million visitors annually, we are just now getting ready to open the first hotel in Wynwood,” said Manny Gonzalez, executive director of the Wynwood Business Improvement District. “We are thrilled Arlo Hotels is the first hotel brand opening in the district. We are attracting a new generation of creatives and entrepreneurs who want to live, work, eat, play and learn in our community, and Arlo will serve them well as their home away from home or remote workspace where inspiration awaits.”

Arlo Wynwood will soon be taking reservations. For more, visit www.arlohotels.com
