Question 581: Got a small package for you buddy boy

The __X__ is one of the most historically and architecturally significant hotels on __Y__. Opened in 1954 and designed by Morris Lapidus, it was considered the most luxurious hotel on __Y__, and is thought to be the most significant building of Lapidus's career. In 2007, the __X__ was ranked ninety-third in the American Institute of Architects list of "America's Favorite Architecture".

It boasts of 1504 rooms, an oceanside view, 11 restaurants, bars (very important in this case), and a lot of pools( even more important).
