It was built 1885-87 by architects John Carrere and Thomas Hastings for Henry Flagler, a real estate and railroad tycoon. Of all the Flagler Hotels, it was only one of three which survived the Great Depression. It has since become part of Flagler College.

The hotel was the first large scale building constructed entirely of poured concrete, and was sold to the college in 1967. It was added to the U.S. National Register of Historic Places in 1975, and became a U.S. National Historic Landmark on February 21, 2006.
