The Pillars Hotel - Fort Lauderdale

We Loved our stay. We were in room 118 on the 2nd floor with our own private cabana and porch over looking the pool and the intercostal waterway. The room itself is tiny but with the attached cabana and porch it is perfect place to relax and entertain guests. The Pillars is a 4 minute walk to the beach , shops and nice restaurants and the onsite water-taxi […] stop is an added luxury. Read more

Great, especially the restaurant, eating outside on the dock with perfectly prepared fish and veal with imaginative pairings doesn't get much better. Lunch was also good and they don't skimp on the quality of the complimentary coffee in the morning either. Only down side, was our bed was a bit con-caved in the middle, might just be the feather bed topper […] needs to be fluffed but other than that well appointed room and amenities. If your budget allows the suites balconies looked amazing. Read more

Excellent B&B with great service and a lovely atmosphere. Conveniently located on the waterway with a water taxi stop and also a block from the ocean.

The dock in the evening was absolutely breathtaking. Our night here was the kickoff to our honeymoon and it couldn't have been more perfect. The atmosphere was wonderfully romantic, the staff was so kind and helpful, and the food was excellent. We definitely plan to come back someday!

Stayed with my mom for one night and it was a very nice alternative toa large hotel. Overall great service but there was only one person at the desk and at times she seemed a bit overwhelmed but no fault of hers. Only so much one person can do. Otherwise perfect!

This is the first time we've stayed at this hotel and WILL be back. Moreso than the location, the guest reviews were the determining factor for our booking. The service was outstanding and, the room and grounds were stunning. We had dinner at the restaurant onsite - The Secret Garden - incredible! There is not enough space to include all of the great […] things about this hotel. Spa services are available, but we did not have enough time to partake. Read more

decent location, boutique hotel, rooms are tiny. we had the misfortune of our tv not working nor our air conditioner. two not very good things for a hotel to have broken. service decent.

Awesome Hotel Surrounded by million dollar properties ... Hotel Staff very professional and friendly. My only complaint was my bed. The mattress was so soft that we both fell into the middle of it. It was a backache all night. The Hotel was gorgeous and professionally (with good taste) decorated. It was so disappointing because I new we were not going […] to stay there again ... bed comfort matters. However if you like extremely soft beds with all the other wonderful things I stated about the Hotel ...... this is your place!! FYI, No Hot Tube. Read more

A/V had some issues but they made up for it with the friendliness of the staff and comfort of the room

Great little spot. Good feel to the place.

This hotel amazed us! As we were driving down Birch, we thought "what have we gotten ourselves into?" then an oasis appeared, it was the Pillars Hotel. You walk through the front door and are transported into a place of peace, serenity and romance. WE ONLY WISHED WE HAD MORE THAN ONE NIGHT THERE!. The grounds are beautiful, orchids everywhere. A wonderful […] view of the intercostal waterway from the chairs on the dock, we love the tour we received upon check-in. The rooms were clean and very comfortable. I only wish the bathroom had a wider shelf above the sink for toiletries. We had a few hiccups with the breakfast room service (no tea cup, forgot the cream and an order of bacon) but minor inconveniences. We will most definitely stay there again when we want a romantic weekend away from it all. Read more

The Pillars Hotel was absolutely incredible. The room was elegant and beautifully decorated. We loved hanging out by the pool during the day, and enjoyed both breakfast and dinner on the dock in the morning and evening. The views from the hotel dock are superb and make for a great al fresco dining experience. The staff were very friendly and helpful […] throughout our stay. The beach is just minutes walking from the hotel, and the Ft. Lauderdale water taxi will make a courtesy stop right at the hotel's dock for quick transport to downtown shopping and restaurants. The Pillars Hotel was a big part of making our honeymoon in Ft. Lauderdale just perfect. Read more

Unlike most of the large and impersonal hotels that line the Ft. lauderdale sand, The Pillars is a small boutique hotel that fronts the Intracoastal. It was the perfect resting stop for us after weeks of stress and deadlines. This is not the place for kids and the family, but more an adult getaway spot where intimacy and peace reign. From the front […] desk staff to the details in the room, all were perfect. And what could be more romantic or relaxing than their dinner on a deck fronting the Intracoastal as the sun sets and the lights of the city start to glow? Read more

The best of the best in a small hotel with a water view second to none.

Genuine Expedia guest review

This is elegance and luxury without ostentation. The only drawback was that our room, the one with its own patio and separate entrance, was on the other side of the wall from the kitchen. There were no smells, and mostly no noise, but about 9 or 10 p.m. we could hear the dishes--probably being washed. Otherwise the place is fabulous. Small restaurant […] has really well prepared food. The pool area is surrounded by palms, and there is a lovely dock area to sit at and read or eat, right on the canal. It is a block from the beach, so close enough to be convenient, but far enough to avoid the traffic and noise. The hotel has water access--but not the ocean, the lovely Intracoastal Waterway. If you want to take the water taxi, the hotel will arrange for a whistle stop, right up to the hotel dock. This hotel is small, intimate, relaxing, elegant. Read more

No comfortable chair in the room. Very thick down bedding, fine for Alaska, too much for Florida. Wonderful location. Very helpful staff. Pricey.

Genuine Expedia guest review

This is a romantic, quiet, hidden gem. We stayed over Christmas, and though the hotel was fully booked, we felt like we had the property all to ourselves. Definitely make a reservation for dinner on the dock--well worth it. The service can be a little slow, since this is an intimate and small operation, but the hotel staff are very helpful and cour […] teous. Read more

This was the perfect setting for a romantic weekend. The Hotel is charming, understated, sophisticated. The rooms were large, and very comfortable. The location was delightful, an easy walk to everything, the beach, charming cafes, wonderful restaurants....yet just far enough away to be quiet. I do have one concern to share. The hotel seems to send […] a mixed message....It is a quaint romantic discovery, but also a setting for the locals to host evening events. It is a small property, so the staff serves double duty....I understand. Two nights during my stay, these events took over the property. When I called to the front desk no one answered, nor responded to my message. My needs went unmet. Each evening when the events were over the staff cleaned up, and moved furniture till late into the night....It was amazingly loud. Did they drop a couch down the stairs? Maybe. To my fellow travelers I would ask when making reservations for my romantic get away if any events were on the schedule. If there are I would think twice before booking. Will I return to this hotel. YES! it is a gem. You will love this property. Ask the right questions. Read more

The Pillars is a great little, quiet, hotel, located about a minute's walk from the Ft. Lauderdale beach and "strip." I had been at a luncheon meeting with other wannabe screenwriters and didn't want to drive back home to Sarasota, and so spent the night there. Will definitely stay there next time in Ft. Laudeerdale!

we had such a great time at the hotel! it soo beautiful. not comparable with chainhotels. its a cute little place with so nice people. its very quiet. a little paradise on earth. the beach is just 5 minutes away, walkingdistance. you have a great view of the fort lauderdale water streets. the hotel has its own little dock, where you can enjoy your dinner,breakfast […] etc or you can just relax at the pool. we stayed there for 4 nights in 2 different rooms. and then we drove down to the keys, which we didnt enjoy so much, so we came back to fort lauderdale, and decided to stay longer at the pillars. they were soo nice. they gave us even the oceanfront suite for the same price as the normal king size room. it was just great. such a beautiful place. we will definitely come back!

Small but wondeful hotel, perfect locatrion by the Intercoastal, very good and personal care. Strongly recommend!

We had a great stay in this hotel. staff is very friendly. the realy only thing i could complain on, is, that for breakfast was only one person serving and then waiting time was a little bit long. but its just one minute to beach, it's close to some nice restaurants. i recommend this hotel.

Genuine Hotels.com guest review

The Pillars is an ideal hideaway and departure from the typical Ft Lauderdale hotel. My stay there was relaxing and very comfortable.

Genuine Hotels.com guest review

Great boutique hotel - perfect for weekend getaway. Clean rooms - rated 4 for cleanliness because bedding did not look clean. Overall appearance of hotel is beautiful. It's not a mainstream hotel on the strip but it's just close enough of a walk to the beach and restaurants.

Genuine Hotels.com guest review

The Pillars is one of the most luxurious boutique hotels I have ever had the pleasure of staying at. With only 22 rooms, the staff provides personal service at your every request. Although not on the ocean, the lovely view of the back bay is surrounded by palms and foliage creating a quiet, oasis feel in what I think is a big and often loud beach t […] own. Read more

Enjoyed our visit completely. Wonderful location and service.

Genuine Hotels.com guest review

Very nice small hotel, with excellent design, service and comfort which has the feeling of being a much larger luxury hotel. The staff were all very welcoming and professional. However the hotel is dominated by its restaurant after 6pm meaning there's nowhere for guests to enjoy the sunset with a drink if they're not dining early. A lounge and waiter […] service at one end of the docks would be very welcome to dispel that excluded feeling. Breakfast is available dockside in the morning which is very nice. Read more

This is a fabulous place - right on the waterfront (with a water-taxi stop outside). The rooms are great - most (all?) with pool views and some with full or side waterfront views too. The staff are amazing - nothing is too much trouble. The star is Jessica who was one of the most helpful people I've ever met. The restaurant is also worth a mention - […] with first class service and food: a million miles away from those on the beachfront in Ft Lauderdale! A pre/post-cruise stop or for a week's holiday - the perfect place! Read more

A lovely hotel, beautifully furnished in public areas and well run. A welcome drink was a good start and the service maintained a high standard throughout. The quieter location near the Intracoastal is so much better than being on the beach. A great way to spend Christmas.

Genuine Hotels.com guest review

This must simply be one of the best small hotels that you could find anywhere, simply a haven of tranquility. 100% recommended.

A gem of a small hotel on the Intracoastal, with delightful staff and a quiet location. I spent an immensely enjoyable three nights here and it's without doubt top of my list in Fort Lauderdale.

A delightful haven of peace in a beautiful setting and with staff who genuinely seem to want you to enjoy yourselves. Breakfast overlooking the water was a real delight.

My wife & I stayed at Pillars Hotel for 8 nights & had one of our best hotel experiences & this after 43 years married & having visited hotels all over the world It has a superb location on the Waterfront & yet only a few 100 yards from the Beach The Food was of a very high quality & served right on the Waterfront a private area to sunbathe with nice […] sized pool & a very attentive & friendly staff We cannot wait to return The hotel is well managed & offers excellent value for money Without a doubt it deserves to be one of the Best Small Hotels in the World Read more
