From the street, the two-and-a-half-pearl Hotel Biba offers undeniable curb appeal. It's a lovely property that’s a clear departure from Palm Beach’s chain hotels and ultra-luxurious accommodations. The 44 rooms vary widely in size and amenities, though most feature a pared-down decor with flat-screen TVs, free Wi-Fi, and air-conditioning. The bargain rates and central location in West Palm Beach’s historical El Cid neighborhood attract budget travelers seeking a boutique experience. Breakfast, parking, and Wi-Fi are all free. But, the outdoor pool, decor, and grounds could all use a little TLC. For slightly higher rates, Hyatt Place West Palm Beach Downtown features a prime downtown location and a modern look and feel.
