The Penguin Hotel, designed by Henry Hohauser, is a shining example of 1940's Late Art Deco style. The building was designed and built in 1948 and features “Horizontality” as a prominent element throughout the structure, with overhanging strip windows and a horizontal railing located on front facade. The original name of the building was The Golden Dawn Hotel, which years later was changed to Penguin Hotel.

All 42 rooms of this beachfront hotel were fully renovated and refurbished by a French designer in 2006, adding a unique design element to this historic hotel.
