Hot Hotelier News: Robert Falor Pulled All the Chicks in High School

by juliana | October 9, 2006 at 2:22 PM | 0 Comments

Thanks to a hard-hitting Q&A done by the Miami Herald, we learn about Robert Falor, the 38-year-old hotelier behind the Royal Palm Hotel in South Beach, which is home to the Rande Gerber Maxim Lounge.

He's also the man behind the Mayfair Hotel in the Miami-area, and the Hotel Blake in the Printers Row district of Chicago.

And he knows a lot about hotels because he grew up in an old Chicago hotel, the Fremont, where he was basically a high school hotel pimp. Case in point:

JB: You bring dates home in high school? How weird was that?

RF: (Laughs) Yeah, high school was great . . . Um, better leave it at that.

This man was practically born for hot hotelierness, except he helped Nicky Hilton design her Nicky O hotels.

While he says that Nicky was involved in all aspects of the planning, we find it interesting that the two places Nicky O Hotels are opening are in Miami and Chicago--just like Falor's hotels. Hopefully, he had nothing to do with that entertainment ticker in the Nicky O hotel elevators.
