History of The Marlin Hotel

The building was erected in 1939, designed by L. Murray Dixon, a principal architect who’s vision defined Deco South Beach design. Nestled in the heart of the city's celebrated Art Deco District, The Marlin Hotel remains a signature South Beach landmark.
 
In the 1990s, the hotel was transposed into a tropical retreat for some of the world's most renowned recording artists and performers.
 
Music legends like Jay-Z, Mariah Carey, Kanye West, Gwen Stefani and many more have made their way to The Marlin to stay, play and produce their music at the property's in-house recording studio.
 
MRK's modern restoration revitalized the prominent property, adding state-of-the-art rooms and suites that anchor the hotel firmly in the present while embracing the history of the iconic location.
