  • Steps from Clematis Street and within easy walking distance of downtown dining and nightlife
  • About 1.3–1.9 km from several Palm Beach landmarks (listed distances in supplier details)
  • Convenient if you want to be in town rather than on Palm Beach island

Pick The Ben if you prefer a central, walkable downtown base for dining and nightlife.

  • 534 guest rooms across 7 floors, including 72 suites and the Flagler Club (21-room boutique on upper floors)

The Ben offers two restaurants and two bars/lounges in a downtown footprint.

  • Proper Grit is a featured on-site restaurant (supplier listing highlight)
  • Cooked-to-order breakfast available for a surcharge

The Ben works well for guests who plan to eat out in downtown West Palm Beach most nights.
