The Hotel Of South Beach

Reception helpfully swapped our room to a quieter part of the hotel. Decent value relative to what else is available.

First room was very noisy

The Hotel is in a great location on Collins. Very easy to walk everywhere from here. The staff are friendly and helpful. They have a nice rooftop pool and bar and happy hours there and in their restaurant. Lots of cupboard and closet space. They have a safe too. A Keurig coffee maker is in the room. Good free WiFi. Nice heavy robes and thick towels. Bell staff are fabulous here. Shout out to Gracie on the front desk for being so professional and helpful.

The walls are very thin. Thing to note about weekends in South Beach is that people come to party so expect to be woken up by loud talking and laughing in the middle of the night. We also were woken up by some heavy footed person in the room above us. The other nights were fine. This is somewhat to be expected when staying in the old Reno’s Art Deco hotels but still not great. The room was comfy but I have to say I do not think the bed was a queen certainly not like ours at home - more like a double. Bathroom was on the small side. Useful for only 1 at a time. Just an oddity I want to comment on. We stayed in a Standard Designer room. There is a huge mirror in front of the bed. Very odd. Would be better to have the TV mounted there. Also there was a small narrow mirror mounted beside the bed but only useable if you are 5’6” or shorter. Being tall it was not very useful.
