Wi-Fi . Easy to find and a good position at the quiet end of Ocean Drive Quiet.

Nice room, very well located 1 block from the beach and a very nice neighborhood.

This hotel is a gem, we had a lovely stay here. It is right on the Ocean Drive, but in the more quiet part which is super close to the beach, but also to all the other attractions South Beach has to offer. It is very nicely maintained, and totally has a Miami beach vibe - it definitely exceeded our expectations! Regarding parking - there are cheaper parking options for 20-30 dollars per day (inquire exact location at the reception). Would totally stay here again. Bonus point: yoga on the beach is offered (not by the hotel) right next to the beach chairs of the hotel - very worth visiting.

Brilliant location, close to the beach. Staff were brilliant, love the decor!

Extremely helpful and courteous staff. Well-appointed and clean room even if a little too dimly lit. Very comfy bed. Appreciate the coffee machine and water bottles. Definitely one of the more quieter hotels in the area.

The location was perfect. The staff were amazing and so helpful and very friendly. The rooms were small but still perfect. Moreover we also had beach facilities. I also liked the fact it was pet friendly, I enjoyed playing with paw friends at the hotel.

This was my second time at Lord Balfour and I appreciate the location in SoBe a lot. Very close to the beach and a bunch of excellent restaurant options. Very tasteful cuban inspired interior design and extra little amenities like coffee and water, a steaming iron and bath robes as well as beach towels in a neat little bag and a fashionable sun hat ;).

location is perfect for those who seek to be nearby the beach and restaurants , but still in a more quiet area for those who want a good rest Marisol at front desk was great along with the F&B staff

Balfour team was always ready to help us with anything needed. Awesome staff! The hotel location, at least for us, was perfect because it was very close to the beach and in a very quiet part of Ocean Dr.

The location is genuinely fantastic, just at the bottom of Ocean Drive and 1 minute walk from the beach. Also, an easy walk from South Pointe Park. My room was just as expected, the bed super comfy nand the bathroom gigantic and with a very fancy shower. The hotel lobby always smelled incredibly nice, and every single member of staff was a delight. Special mention to Andres at the bar, who made me an amazing Margarita.
