Summary of reviews

Guests say
Guests appreciated the hotel's excellent location near the beach and pedestrian areas, with many praising the cleanliness and the helpful staff. The service was regarded positively, particularly after management addressed guest complaints. However, several guests expressed dissatisfaction with the small room sizes and the high resort fees, especially considering issues with room amenities like A/C noise. Overall, while the location and service stood out positively, room comfort and value for price were points of concern.

Richard, Mar 2025
Pros (+) The property is at the end of South Beach, great location and very much quiet. Roof bar and pool, was cool, only busy on Saturday afternoon, beach area was great. Gym was small but had everything I needed to work out. Strongest like is the Staff. FOH Went above and beyond, FOH (female, dark hair, Latino) was a star, helped me and my wife Changing rooms, went from a classic king to Royal Ocean suit...
Cons (-) Our first room wasn’t great various damage to room, but this was quickly resolved. Late checkin in comparison, 4pm, but to add to the pain we arrived at hotel at 9am and no early checkin available. Early check out as well, standard is 11am again not the norm.

Room not huge but functional and nicely decorated. No view. Facilities very good. Staff great. Advance notice of road closure and location of valet parking would have been very helpful.

Ryan, Mar 2025
Pros (+) Beach service with chairs and umbrella was good. Rooftop pool was surprisingly large. The suite we had was large.
Cons (-) Being in the Hofhauser wing. You had to go up in the Dixon wing elevator, walk through the hotel and then down another lift to get to our room. Not a big inconvenience but just made it long

Pros (+) Beautiful vintage style hotel, with a great location on Ocean Drive. Dinner on the veranda was delightful. The "CEOs", Betsy and Rosa, were very welcoming, it's great to visit a place that is so dog friendly.
