The room did not feel clean. There were no tables to put anything on except for the little side tables. It felt very cramped. Carpet felt old and dirty.

Did not like the open shower area, beds weren't that comfortable, front desk reception wasn't that nice, and the cost of the hotel per night was very overpriced because we were leaving on a cruise from the Port of Miami. Total price gouging.

Great location and interesting history of the hotel. Restaurant was very good, but a little pricey for portion size.

I stayed from Friday to Monday. On Sununday the the cleaner didnt clean the room .She changed the toweels and made the bed but left obvious paper etc on the ground.

Almost everything. I esp liked the decor. There were alot of photos and newspaper clippings on the walls which gave you a sense of the history of the hotel and the area .

The rooms were tiny with no storage space, the bathroom shower was also tiny. The hotel was very expensive for the standard of room also the resort fees and car parking were pricy.

The ambiance as you walked in to the hotel was lovely and it smelt good. The jazz club was great. The pool area was also cool , however there was a lack of staff for food and drinks. The location is great.

Staff is not so friendly. They gave us a room smaller than announced and didn’t care about

Balcony plants too big.

Ideal location for the beach & shops

Unfortunately, the entrance of the hotel was shared with the restaurant. Hence, it was not luggage friendly - was travelling alone so having to carry my heavy suitcase up and down the stairs was not very fun.

Absolutely loved my stay at Gale. Safe. Great location. Friendly staff. The hotel was only a 5 minutes walk away from Miami Beach and I was spoilt for brunch spots around the corner. There is also a hidden cocktail lounge in the hotel's basement - Medium Cool, 10/10 should check it out! Overall stay was great. Would come back here again.

Room was pretty small. Staff was mostly helpful except one occasion where they didn't help and told us we had to do it ourselves. Then the manager just gave excuses.

Rooms were nice and had all the basics. Beds were comfortable. Easy to control thermostat. Plenty of towels.

I wasn’t expecting the main entrance to the hotel lobby to be the same one used for the outdoor restaurant. Sometimes navigating running out to grab a snack or meet friends with luggage in tow was alil congested as customers of the restaurant and wait staff were busy using that same entrance. Also I didn’t mind this but note that because this hotel is in a popular area I did find the neighboring rooms on my floor loud/rowdy on Friday/Saturday late night.

I was there on a solo trip, the boutique feel made feeling solo perfectly fine there. I really liked my room and it’s proximity to Miami Beach most popular sites to see. There was also an outdoor mall w/ Macys, Anthropologie, Sephora etc. that was a 12 minute walk from the hotel.

We had a superior room with terrace. There was really no storage space to store or hang your clothing and the one piece of furniture, a night stand was not functional.

Great location and good staff.

Great location. Excellent restaurant on site and nearby. Beautiful pool with ocean view. Sister hotel with beach access chairs and bikes included in resort fee.

I explicitly asked for a quiet room and was placed in a room that had loud mechanical noises (likely from the elevator) that woke me up the first night. I was much happier once Ramon moved me to a quieter room that had a better bathroom setup and more light. Also, I went down for dinner (no prior reservation but the place was nearly empty) and the hostess tried to seat me by the door in the cafe. I was perplexed when it was clear that I wanted to be seated in the dining room (not in the open cafe on a rainy night). It really put a damper on my experience until I had an amazing meal and service in the dining room.

The breakfast was great. The hotel labeled bottled water was helpful. I loved the direct beach access and amenities via the Shelbourne. The dinner at Dolce was delicious with top notch service from Danny.

Whilst there were a ton of hooks all over the bathroom, the closet was stumpy so only shirts could be hung , anything longer had to be on a hook.

The roof pool was a great way to end the day with a swim and. Drink. Absolutely a little hidden gem.
