Check Availability & Pricing
Hotel Information: Tommy Hilfiger stayed here. So did British prime ministers Margaret Thatcher and John Major, actor Joan Collins, and other luminaries. They and like-minded guests come for privacy, intimacy, hospitality, and nightly live music in Leopard Lounge & Restaurant, where celebrities such as Rod Stewart and Celine Dion have been known to appear. Ornate decor blends influences from South Africa, England, and Florida.
Amenity highlights: A lushly gardened courtyard contains a medium-size pool and four-person spa tub surrounded by a sundeck furnished with cushioned lounge chairs, brightened by red-and-white striped awnings, and soothed by a little fountain/waterfall.
Insider tip: Three blocks east of the hotel, on a street along the ocean, are the winter-retreat mansions that first drew socialites to Palm Beach in the Roaring Twenties.
Rooms
The Chesterfield offers 53 guestrooms in a three-story building styled like a Spanish-Moorish mansion. Hallways are carpeted in the hotel's signature leopard print, clad in bronze-and-silver striped fabric, and lit by hurricane-lamp-style fixtures. Room decor features pinks and greens, including floral bedspreads, throw pillows, and white-wood crown moldings. White-wood closets with pink piping flank beds, creating fabric-lined recesses for matching upholstered headboards. Antique-style furniture, including desks, comes with brass hardware.
Frette Italian linens and down comforters provide sleeping comfort. Other amenities include potpourri baskets, complimentary bottled water, jelly beans, bathrobes, and Gilchrist & Soames English toiletries.

Property Amenities
Built in 1926, The Chesterfield blends into a neighborhood of luxury homes with its Spanish-Moorish style established in Palm Beach by famed architect Addison Mizner during the 1920s. Wrought-iron railings and terra-cotta-tile roofs trim a rough, pale-pink stucco exterior. Only little red-and-white striped awnings and a polished-brass sign disclose that the mansion-like building is a hotel. Entry is through an intimate courtyard. Housekeepers wear red carnations, a hotel signature.
Styled like an English country-home parlor, the reception area of The Chesterfield Palm Beach includes a concierge desk and complimentary apples, cookies, and jelly beans. Complimentary coffee and juice are provided in the mornings.
A wood-paneled library with fireplace and English hunting prints offers overstuffed seating, books, magazines, newspapers, and a flat-screen computer with complimentary high-speed Internet connection.
