Loews Hotels & Co, today opens the Loews Coral Gables Hotel. The hotel is bringing a new level of hospitality just four blocks from the Gables’ iconic Miracle Mile.

Loews Coral Gables boasts 242 guestrooms, including 21 stylish suites featuring a sophisticated, modern design, luxe amenities, spa, fitness center, pool and four restaurants and lounges. Additionally, 30,000 square feet of indoor/outdoor meeting space includes a 9,000 square foot ballroom – the largest in the city – and a  9^th floor event deck with spectacular views of downtown Coral Gables, appropriately known as The City Beautiful.

The hotel is the second property in the greater Miami area, for New York based Loews Hotels & Co, joining the iconic 790-room Loews Miami Beach Hotel, located in the epicenter of South Beach.

“This opening marks a significant milestone for us as we add a second hotel in South Florida, furthering our belief in Miami as a destination,” said Jonathan Tisch, Chairman & CEO, Loews Hotels & Co.  “With our partners from Agave, we look forward to bringing the Loews history and heritage in hospitality, and our strong service culture to The Plaza Coral Gables, local neighbors and visitors alike.”

In partnership with Agave Holdings, Loews Coral Gables is part of The Plaza Coral Gables. The Plaza Coral Gables is revitalizing Miami’s business district section with a full range of services and community opportunities, which also includes class “A” offices, street-level shopping and dining areas, and residential lofts and apartments. The new design, created with beauty and balance as a top priority, incorporates a 1-acre open to the public plaza facing Ponce de Leon Blvd. and the soon-to-be-improved Ponce Circle Park.
