Sleeping Psychedelicate at the Pelican Hotel in Miami, Florida

Keep your sunglasses on when you walk into the lobby of the pop-art Pelican Hotel in Miami—well, what lobby? It's a bar! Shiny chrome and blinding yellow décor are just a prelude to the magical mystery tour inside the walls of this place. In the "Psychedelicate Girl" room, you totally expect to see Twiggy lounging in the chairs, while the "Me Tarzan, You Vain" room makes you want to swing from something, anything. Then there's the "Up, Up and Away" room, decorated completely with pieces of an airplane, the "Born in the Stars and Stripes" room, which would make even Sarah Palin proud, and the "Best Whorehouse" room, with no explanation needed. The on-site Pelican Cafe is perfect for viewing the never-ending parade of people on Ocean Drive.
