We liked everything about our stay. It was a birthday trip for My Granddaughter & I as our birthdays are 4 days apart. I can't say enough about this Great things about this hotel. It DID exceed our expectations! It will be the only place we stay when we go back.It is centrally located to all the great restuarants and nightspots. The free breakfast is a bonus as well

Jennifer, United States of America

The location was everything if you are looking for the party scene!

My favorite South Beach / Ocean Drive Hotel. Stayed here several times, never fails to satisfy. Enjoyed a great corner room, with windows on both exterior walls and a balcony. Room well equipped, clean, bright. Great breakfast in morning (on real plates, not paper or plastic). Staff very helpful, with calling cabs, helping with bags, etc., great vibe throughout.

Robert, Canada

Rooms were clean and well-designed. Facilities were good. Location perfectly central in South Beach.

Savannah, Canada

Hotel room was perfect, great value for the money. Room was very spacious and had a great view of ocean drive and the beach. Beds were very comfortable and the style and decor of the room was great. The bathroom was huge and very nice. The free breakfast was actually really good, better than most hotel free breakfasts. They provided beach towels and chairs and even had free bicycle rentals.

Emily, United States of America

The staff members were very pleasant and helpful. The location is the best if you want to be right in the middle of the action. There were free bikes in the lobby that was a real attraction for us - there are paths down to the south most pointe and up to around 41st street. The rooms were a good size. Lummus Park across the street is awesome. Walk to any number of nice restaurants.

Joseph, United States of America

Everything was great !!! I can’t wait to go back!!

Tanya, United States of America

The location was perfect. Anytime we had a need room service was always prompt. The room was spacious and clean.

Tina, United States of America

“Great value ~ Great location. Very friendly and helpful staff.”
- • Leisure trip

- • Superior Room
- • Stayed 2 nights
눉Unfortunately, the exterior terrace (morning breakfast) is not divided into smoking / non-smoking sections. Even on an exterior terrace, 2nd hand smoke is bothersome (to a non-smoker). Choice of morning music, and loudness, an issue, yet this can be said for all Ocean Drive hotels. One does not need loud rock or salsa music at 8:00 am, 'Palm Court' music (instrumentals / strings, etc.) would be more appropriate.
눇My favorite South Beach / Ocean Drive Hotel. Stayed here several times, never fails to satisfy. Enjoyed a great corner room, with windows on both exterior walls and a balcony. Room well equipped, clean, bright. Great breakfast in morning (on real plates, not paper or plastic). Staff very helpful, with calling cabs, helping with bags, etc., great vibe throughout.

“Nice rooms, good location”

눉This seems to be more of a party hotel - there is a courtyard in the centre with a stage playing music until 2 a.m. (this might only be a weekend thing). We're not normally fussy about ambient noise, but it sounded like the party was in our hotel room. Worth considering for those who might be bothered by excess noise.
눇Rooms were clean and well-designed. Facilities were good. Location perfectly central in South Beach.

눉The staff was not as friendly as other hotels I’ve stayed at. The front desk was understaffed and it took a while to check in. They were unable to check us in until exactly 4 o clock, other hotels I’ve stayed at have been more accommodating especially since check out is at 11. Parking is 42 a day which is a bit much.

눉Staff, service, breakfast, parking, how staff treat you Ac didn’t work one hot night. They did not care and did not offer compensation. I waited 45 minutes at the vale station for them to bring up my car. Breakfast was nasty, not edible. I asked for a top for the coffee cup so I can take it with me, they said they don’t have it and did not move a finger to look for one. When I asked for recommendations for things to do, first answer was “I don’t know”. Very lazy staff and they don’t care. Go to a hotel owned by a chain so they can at least have maintenance and service standards. This is owned privately so you can’t even complain up the chain to make a difference. If you are a 25 year old and want a place to crash with good location, it may be ok. But if you expect some good experience and service, don’t even bother...

“Beautiful beach, Lummus Park, great location, needs updating”
- • Leisure trip
- • Couple
- • King Room - Non-Smoking
- • Stayed 5 nights
눉A strong smell of air freshener/cleaner as you enter the lobby. Rooms and hallways needed remodeling and updating. The pool was in need of a good cleaning and maintenance. The included buffet breakfast was tasteless and bare bones - we went out to breakfast most mornings. Our room was switched because of a problem with the TV - both showers had what looked like mold in the bottom corners. There is a large open bar next door with loud live entertainment that goes until after 3am. Our first room, 407, was relatively quiet. Second room, 402, was noisier. You may want to request a room away from the noise.
눇The staff members were very pleasant and helpful. The location is the best if you want to be right in the middle of the action. There were free bikes in the lobby that was a real attraction for us - there are paths down to the south most pointe and up to around 41st street. The rooms were a good size. Lummus Park across the street is awesome. Walk to any number of nice restaurants.
