Hotel Victor: a website for an Art Deco hotel on Ocean Drive, from first look to booked room
The brief
An original Art Deco hotel on Ocean Drive, with nearly 80 years of history — and a website that has to sell a room in the first scroll.
Hotel Victor is more than rooms: three restaurants, including Gianni’s in the former Versace Mansion, a crystal-therapy spa, and event space for groups. The site had to carry all of it without burying the one thing most visitors came to do — check dates and book.
We designed and built it on WordPress with a full-bleed, photography-led layout and a booking bar that sits on the first screen: adults, children, arrival, departure, book.
What we built
A hotel site organised the way guests plan a stay: room, then table, then everything else.
Booking bar
Guests, arrival and departure on the first screen, handing off straight to the hotel’s own reservation engine.
Rooms & suites
A page for each of the eight room types, from Superior King to the Victor and Victoria penthouses, each photographed and one tap from booking.
Eat & drink
Gianni’s, Café Americano and Mercato Di Mare, each with its own story, setting and reason to book a table.
Spa, events & specials
The K’Alma spa with its own booking link, a groups and events page, seasonal specials, and a newsletter sign-up for returning guests.
Questions people ask
What did Autograph build for Hotel Victor?
We designed and built the Hotel Victor South Beach website on WordPress: the homepage and booking bar, a page for each room type, the dining, spa, events and specials pages, and the hand-off to the hotel’s reservation engine.
How does booking work on the site?
Guests choose adults, children and dates in the booking bar and are passed to the hotel’s own reservation engine to complete the booking, so availability and rates always come from the hotel’s system.
Can the hotel update the site themselves?
Yes. It is built on WordPress with Elementor Pro, so the hotel team can change rooms, specials and restaurant content without a developer.
