An investment vehicle managed and led by Lifestyle Hospitality Capital (LHC) Group and backed by funds advised by Elliott Investment Management L.P., has acquired The Gates Hotel South Beach.
The 235-room hotel will undergo a transformative renovation, following which it will be rebranded as The Dean Hotel – Miami Beach. As the U.S. flagship hotel of the Dean Group, the new design and concept will deliver a unique lifestyle hotel product and a bar, restaurant, pool and rooftop experience.
The hotel will be operated under the Dean brand, part of the Dean Group, which operates other lifestyle hotels such as The Clarence, The Mayson and The Leinster, as well as restaurants and bars such as Sophie’s, Ryleigh’s and Layla’s in Europe.
“We are thrilled to have acquired such a high-profile hotel in the fast-evolving Miami Beach hotel market,” said Keith Evans, founder/CEO, LHC. “The Gates Hotel South Beach offers significant potential for repositioning into one of Miami’s leading lifestyle hotels. This is an exciting first move for the Dean brand as it begins to build its presence across the U.S., following the recent expansion of the Dean Group into Munich and Berlin.”
