SBH South Beach Hotel has been an exemplar of Miami Beach style and coolness, a place where locals and visitors can think less and play more. Chic and boldly handcrafted, yes, but intimate and easygoing too. Our Miami hotel features free Wi-Fi, valet parking and complimentary breakfast as well as beach lounger and towel. Think South Beach glamour without all the usual bustle and bravado.From the historic Art Deco jewel box of a lobby to the palm-frond laden café-inspired patio, you'll find this newly refreshed 51-room boutique to be a hidden gem in the best part of Collins Park, walking distance from the ocean, the Miami Beach Convention Center and everything else you've come to see and experience in South Beach.

Reviews Summary
This summary was created by AI, based on recent reviews.
Powered by AI
The SBH South Beach Hotel boasts an enviable location appreciated by many travelers for its proximity to the beach and local dining options. While the hotel's art deco charm and cleanliness receive positive remarks, guests express mixed feelings about the service, which varies from friendly to disorganized. Amenities like the pool are a highlight, although renovation disruptions have caused some dissatisfaction. In terms of value, reviewers warn of additional fees and conditions that may not meet expectations, and room experiences range widely, with some facing unwelcome surprises.

Do NOT stay here!!!! There was a roach in our room and we had to be moved to a different "smaller" room and I'm still fighting to get some kind of compensation for it. Our original room's air condition unknowingly to us leaked and the inside of my entire purse got soaked. Then we were charged for a bottle that we didn't even drink. The only plus is the location allowed us to pretty much walk everywhere

This place is rundown, outdated, and not cared for by any means. The photos you see are not what you’re getting at all. The place was dirty and smelled musty. There were ants all over in the bathroom and desk area. Shower curtain and headboard had gross stains. Our windows were boarded up because of construction so no natural light was coming in to an already dimly lit room. You have to check in at a hotel next door and go there for pretty much anything you need. The wifi is horrible, you can barley check your email even. Don’t waste your time or money. Years of responses to their reviews say they will do better and they care about their guests but really nothing has changed since reviews from years ago. Except for maybe it getting worse.

After reading the reviews, I was expecting the worst. Pretty much lived up to expectations. Tried to cancel, but I got the cheapest room, so no cancellations. My bad. I checked the room prices a week after I paid $180 a night for 2 nights. They had the same room for $95 a night. I called to see if I could get the cheaper rate. They explained they have dynamic pricing, but did not allow any changes. So I get there and check in at the hotel next door, the Boulan. Which seems like a nice hotel. That's where the pool and restaurant are that are pictured in the adds. Go to the SBH next door. Nice court yard area with a fountain. Looks very nice. They actually DO have an electronic lock on the entrance door now. An improvement over past reviews. Inside it is an older building. Has potential to be fixed up nice. But they choose not to. Go to my room on the 2nd floor. Hallways are dark and dingy. Kind of scary. Get to the room. Pretty much the same. Looks like it may have been painted not long ago, but painted a light brown, contributing to the dark and dingy feel. The furniture in the room. Dresser, desk, lamps, nightstands are all 2nd hand furniture you would find at goodwill outlets. Literally. Bed was clean and comfortable enough. Definitely not plush, but comfortable if you like a firm mattress. Hotel actually seems like it is set up for spring breakers. Almost impossible to damage anything in the rooms. Bathroom was redone and actually kind of nice. Best thing about the hotel is location. 1 block from the beach.

I would look elsewhere. This hotel feels like it is under construction, the lobby felt like I may have been nice in decades prior but is now the neglected overflow of the much newer nicer hotel attached to its hip. We had no hot water for the duration of our stay, we made the front desk aware and they said they would send someone, which they did not. And upon checkout they claimed they would compensate us for an evening and did not. Additionally, upon reviewing the bill, if you made the mistake of using the minibar, they tip themselves 20% for each item! There is no choice in the matter. They have been unresponsive to my attempts to contact and discuss these things. Distance to the beach is nice, but overall was not a great experience for a large group that spent a lot of money.

We booked here because with the pictures it looked like it’s right on the beach and the prices were better than most. I do have to say the lady was able to check us in early and we really appreciated that! Unfortunately though we for the dated rooms. They smelt so musty and gross! I asked to be moved but she said there was nothing else available. It’s pretty big so I wasn’t sure if that was true but we just left it alone. I’d definitely ask to stay on the higher part of the hotel, maybe it’s not gross and musty.

After requesting a refund due to service fee being taken out but we had no room service the whole time we were there, they responded with this. I would like to inform you that we are unable to honor your request. The service fee is not an mandatory fee which include the two Beach Chairs, Towels, High Speed WIFI, Unlimited Local Calls and two complimentary Illy Espresso capsules per stay.” $33 a day for the items listed on top of the high day rate as well. Good on them but not again. We had organised a holiday package with this being part of that package and have been now charged extra for things that we did not use which are standard items in every other hotel in the world.

It’s the worst experience we had here. It is rated as a 4 star but it’s worth only 2 star not even a 3 star. The room is very cozy and the pool is on the next building’s terrace on top of parking.. no direct access, should take 2 different elevators to go to pool. The food at orange blossom restaurant is not that great as well, steak was re-cooked and not fresh. Definitely, will not recommend this hotel. There are many better options around the area.

so hotel has nothing to do with the pictures. I was surprised to find in the room very outdated furniture plus the only chair found in the room was ripped all over and looked like someone found it in the garbage and got it into room. Mattress probably 25 years old and extremely uncomfortable. I will not recommend my friends this hotel . On the positive side the restaurant was quite good . At the checkout I was given a discount for the inconvenience caused.
