Lock in a great price for Room Mate Lord Balfour - rated 8.6 by recent guests.

to get started.

The location and small boutique feel of the hotel, literally 300 yards from the beach. Also we loved that it was at the quieter end of the Ocean Drive. Breakfast and and restaurant food was superb. Great service

Georgie, United Kingdom

Location and The Staff at the bar are really exceptional.

Tomasz, Poland

Great staff, perfect location in more relaxed part of Art Deco district, nice and clean rooms

Quesnelle, Poland

The bed was huge and the room was very spacious. The staff was extremely friendly, especially at the bar! The location is top-notch.

Mario, Croatia

I love South Beach location infront of yhe sea byt quiet relaxing silent

Daniele, Italy

Definately the best situation on Ocean drive - quiet area with great beach, very nice shops & restaurants close by. Small Boutique Hotel, great rooms, bar, veranda restaurant with very helpful friendly staff & great manager who took time to talk to all the guests. Champagne on arrival a bonus. Best place we ate in Miami & extensive buffet breakfast. Fab 4 days !!

Nigel, United Kingdom

I loved the decor and the cleanliness of the room. The front desk staff were very amicable and even helped with our luggage. The hotel was in a good location but please be aware that finding a parking spot is like finding a diamond in the rough! We chose to add the valet option. We ate dinner at the hotel's restaurant one evening and it was okay, nothing to write home about. The toilet in our room required servicing. However, it was not a deal breaker because as soon as I called the front desk they sent a staff member immediately....didn't have to wait 10 minutes! The hotel is very boutique chic! It is located along the far end of Ocean Ave so the upside is that you're away from the heavy traffic (both pedestrian and auto). The downside is you're away from the action, lol. Overall I was very satisfied with my visit and I would book accommodations at Room Mate Lord Balfour again!

Andrei, USA

The location is perfect. A quiet location but only two or three blocks from all the action . Beach right across the street.

What travellers love about this location

“Location and beach amenities (towels, beds, and ambrella) are of importance for our stay.”

EVANGELIA

Greece

“I chose this hotel because even though it was on Ocean Drive it was in a very quiet area. The action is truly only two blocks away. The location to the beach is a walk across the street!! The people running the beach are super nice, Umbrella towels and loungers are included in the resort fee which is totally worth it. The hotel is very charming and clean with a nice seating area out front. Breakfast is served till noon. I definitely recommend this hotel.”

눉See above
눇Property is very nice and in a great location. Staff seem very friendly but then forget about you once you are out of thier sight. We came for one night after a cruise before heading home the next day. Showed up early (about 11 am) before check in. They suggested that we might get checked in within an hour or so. Had us leave our bags (with little ID stickers) in the corner of a busy lobby and said they would get in touch with by phone once room was ready. We then went out and got sidetracked as tourists. No calls, no texts from the property. Tried calling them a few times but no answer. Finally got back late (1000pm) to find that our bags were still just sitting in a public place. After we got our keys we just took our bags from among a pile of bags and no one even asked for our claim check to match numbers. Made me very glad that I had kept all my money, valuables and passports with me all day as the property didn’t seem to care about securing our property. When I raised this concern with the front desk, they really could not have cared less. So, while the property is pretty (save for some peeling wallpaper in outer room, which is probably hard to avoid in the South Florida humidity) and well located, the staff and customer service are not very focused on guests. That is a farm cry from the experiance we had the weekend before at the Marlin Hotel which had amazing guest services.

눉When sitting on the toilet it is next to impossible to grab the toilet paper as it is jammed in behind you . Early check-in is not possible they will not let you in your room one minute before 3 PM . I’ll never understand why some hotels will not let you in your rooms as they are prepped by the cleaning crew . Surely if check out is at 11 AM rooms should become available every half hour .
눇The location is perfect. A quiet location but only two or three blocks from all the action . Beach right across the street.
