I loved the location of South Beach Hotel. it's close to the beach and surrounded by great restaurants. However, I was disappointed by the misleading breakfast arrangement, which fell short of what I expected from a "continental breakfast". Although the rooftop pool was a nice escape, the hotel seems quite old and in need of some updates.

I had a pleasant stay at South Beach Hotel, with its charming art deco vibe and a great location just steps from the beach. My room was clean and cozy, and I particularly loved the long rain shower; however, the rooftop pool experience could have been better since the jacuzzi was out of service. Overall, I found it to be a good value, but there were some minor service issues that stood out during my visit.

The complimentary breakfast at Orange Blossom was a nice touch, though I didn't get a chance to try it. I found their partnered restaurant charming, especially the Mushroom Risotto for dinner.

The rooftop pool offered amazing views, but I was disappointed with the jacuzzi being non-functional and lack of pool service. The shared amenities with the Boulan hotel added some extra options for relaxation.

My stay at South Beach Hotel was less than impressive. While the complimentary breakfast was good and having access to the beach chairs was a plus, the room did not meet my expectations, feeling rundown and not very clean. The location was convenient, but the overall experience left much to be desired.

Rooms

5.0

The room felt old and rundown, with dirty carpets and a noisy toilet. Though the room was of an adequate size, it certainly didn't match the expectations set by the hotel's presentation online.

Service

The service was disappointing overall, especially with the handling of charges. I faced issues with billing for a mini-bar item I didn't consume, and it took ages to resolve the refund.

Location

The hotel's location was decent, just a short walk to the beach and other attractions, which I appreciated. It was a bit removed from the more chaotic areas, which suited me just fine.

Dining

I found the complimentary breakfast to be a highlight of my stay, providing a good selection each morning, but overall dining options, including mini-bar items, felt overpriced for the quality.

Facilities

The facilities were quite minimal, and the rooftop pool was nice but shared with the hotel next door. I expected more given the resort fee I paid.

My stay at South Beach Hotel was a mixed bag. While the location is fantastic and the beach access is a big plus, the overall experience was marred by noise and maintenance issues. Despite the friendly staff, the rooms felt dated and in need of cleaning, which diminished my excitement about the stay.

Rooms

I enjoyed the complimentary breakfast options provided, but I found the system a bit limiting. Only one item was allowed from a small selection, which felt restrictive given the resort fee.

Facilities

The pool area at the sister hotel was nice, but I was disappointed that the facilities at South Beach Hotel itself felt outdated. There were amenities like beach chairs and towels that were appreciated, but I wished the hotel had more to offer on-site.

My stay at the South Beach Hotel was a mix of positives and negatives. The location was great, a short walk to the beach, and the complimentary breakfast at Orange Blossom was a nice touch. However, the condition of the hotel was disappointing, with issues like dirty hallways and the disappointment of having to check in at the Boulan next door due to renovations. Overall, it was adequate but not what I expected. 😕

Rooms

The room was generally clean, but it did suffer from some maintenance issues. The air conditioning system was problematic, and lighting could have been better. It felt neglected overall.

Some staff were friendly and helpful, especially Phil with luggage services. However, the check-in experience was frustrating, with unhelpful staff at the reception and long waits for ice and glasses in the room.

The hotel is conveniently located just two blocks from the beach, making it easy to enjoy the sun and surf. Plus, it's within walking distance to various dining options.

Access to the rooftop pool at the Boulan was a perk, but other amenities felt limited. There was no reception area in South Beach Hotel, which added to the confusion.
