About the hotel
Designed by Pietro Belluschi and developed by Theodore Gould as part of the Miami Center complex, this waterfront tower at 100 Chopin Plaza opened in 1983 as the Pavilion Hotel and has been an InterContinental since 1986. The lobby is built around Henry Moore's travertine sculpture 'The Spindle', and the facade carries a programmable LED 'digital canvas'. Overlooking Biscayne Bay beside Bayfront Park, it hosts the park's New Year's Eve 'Big Orange' countdown and has roughly 650 rooms, a rooftop pool and the Toro Toro restaurant.
