BD Hotels brings New York attitude to West Palm Beach with Nora Hotel
June 18, 2025
HOTELS Magazine features Nora Hotel, an upscale 201-room hotel and the first vertical development in West Palm Beach’s Nora District
New York-based Gachot Studios, led by principal Christine Gachot, is curating the hotel’s interiors while sustainable design and engineering firm Stantec is serving as design architect and architect of record. In describing the interior design and its hoped-for impact on guests, Born characterized it as serene and residential. “When you’re in the hotel rooms, you will feel like you’re in your own bedroom rather than in a cookie-cutter branded hotel. It’s really geared toward comfort and relaxation,” he said. BD’s long-time project partner, Sean MacPherson, is also fully involved in the design process.?
An outpost of famed New York food haunt Pastis will be on the hotel’s ground floor. STARR Restaurants will provide in-room dining services and collaborate on the hotel’s rooftop restaurant and lounge, where there will be access to a garden dining area, two bars, a pool and?private cabanas.??
