Terrible place, overpriced and sometimes when you go and is slow no bartenders crazy I paid $30 for one margarita get your money and go somewhere else read more

- good Thai chili wings - good service - while active, the music from Thursday night was all over the place - $5 jose cuervo shots on thursdays - I liked the watermelon rose, but they were kind of weak - plenty of open space read more

Rooms are extremely small . When I arrived my room was dirty. There were splatters on the wall, dirty/stained sheets and bathroom not clean. Management was notified and only offered to clean the room again. Management was less than customer- friendly. They have a sister hotel around the corner which is newer. The location is great . The beach is across the street and the hotel connects to a night club. I would not stay here again read more

Came as a group of 5 for a bachelorette party. We had bottle service and a table. The service was really slow - we waited forever to get our champagne. Also, the appetizers were not great (nachos and mozzarella sticks). But, everyone who worked there was friendly. I wouldn't recommend coming here if you actually want to swim - the pool is tiny. The place is also not particularly clean, there's dirty water everywhere. The music was great though! There was a DJ and she was great, and so was the emcee. It's a fun environment but just know what you're getting into. read more

Came here to ring in my 29th birthday! We got here around 11pm so we could have drinks at midnight to celebrate. There was no line and just a few people in and around the bar. There was HOWEVER already a girl puking her brains out into a nearby trash can but hey it was also spring break so go girl. The bartender (wish I had her name!) was so nice and made amazing drinks! I got this berry lemonade vodka type drink and it was delicious! I wish all places could make this drink. It was dangerous. I had about 4 in an hour. She also made me a complimentary birthday shooter. By 1am it was getting pretty packed and the DJ had the jams flowing. We wanted to stay longer but we could feel the rain starting to drizzle so we decided to leave around 1:30am. Will definitely be back! I love the set up and how spacious it is. It seems like a super fun place! read more

The Hotel is party central. If that's what you are looking for, look no farther. If you book a room and decide you want a more quiet experience, the staff is more than accommodating. They have a sister property called Essex House and they will send you there and help make you more comfortable. The music plays until around 3 am. It's very quiet, safe and peaceful there. Shout out to the staff Chris and Michelle, and the others at the Essex. Very cool people and very friendly! Take plenty of plastic for your Miami Beach experience. They extra tip/sure charges on top of your bill ( does not include tips)can be pricey. Bacon bitch has bomb coffee. They made sure her eggs were warm and said.. "your eggs good bitch?" LOL. ONLY IN MIAMI-- read more

This place is the ultimate definition of partying on South Beach. The music, the decor, and the drinks were all great. I highly recommend this place. ​ read more

Beware and always ask server for full itemized bill. They tried to double charge on some drinks and also added gratuity, but didn't show the itemizes bill. Look at your bill in detail as these crooks will try to overcharge!! read more

Awful experience. This hotel is very different from the pictures. Our room was gross, stinky and dirty, so was the hotel. No front desk upon arrival and the hotel door was locked. The bed had no sheets and the pillows were super thick and uncomfortable. The staff were slamming the doors for hours while cleaning in the morning. We booked this through capital one travel where it was falsely advertised as a 4 star hotel with gorgeous rooms. It was hardly a 3 star hotel. We left the next morning and it caused major inconvenience in our short trip. read more

Such a fun spot for daytime drinks... week day or weekend it's old faithful for a fun vibe. We went about 3 times on a 5 day trip and I would totally recommend!! The drinks are good and so is the food. They have a little pool area where you can cool off and have a drink too. read more

Honestly call before showing up for your reservation. When we got here they said our reservation.. that we already paid for was canceled which okay things happen but when we were checking out they were saying the same thing to another family just think it's odd I would triple check your reservation if I were you. read more

What started off as a really terrible experience was completely turned around by Cierra. Ton of energy and really nice! I'm going to drop some bars... When you're experience starts real bad We were gettin big mad Flag Cierra down and she sees us real sad She's like "turn that frown upside-down" Best service in town It's all good when Krystle and Greg come to town I'm too Caucasian for this read more

*For the food only!* We spent a great Saturday lunch outside of the Clevelander. the food was perfectly fine - nothing crazy and not especially exciting. We split a bbq chicken pizza and the hot honey chicken sandwich. They were definitely pricier than they should have been and it felt like we were in a tourist trap, but sitting outside was a lot of fun! read more

Bad food, bad service, unfriendly to locals. They are also removing the bike lanes and pedestrian zones to more cars. Save yourself the money and go somewhere else. read more

I've been to The Clevelander several times, but it's been 15 years since my last visit. We stayed for 7 nights, on this visit...and decided to watch the UFC fights, on our last night, at Kush. I cant say enough about our amazing experience!!! The food was great. The fights were on more tv's than we could count. And most importantly...our bartender Renata was ABSOLUTELY PHENOMENAL!!!! Even beyond her excellent drink-making skills...she took to most amazing care, of my lady, who was feeling kinda sickly...after a week of indulging!! If we didn't already have a dozen reason to return...we'd easily come back, to be lovingly pampered by Renata!!! Give that Hungarian angel a raise!!!!!! (Loved leaving this review...because it's all 100% true!!!) ~Dylan...from New Orleans. read more

Sat on the patio for drinks. The bartender was great and the service was quick. There was a live band that played great music. Fun environment in a decent location. read more

Clevelander - Band - Sports Bars Near Me - Miami Beach, Florida

Update: This place fraudulently signed a transaction I paid cash for; essentially double dipping. Will be reporting this to the BBB. Shame on this place. Bottom line This place has a very lush and vibrant scene -- yes, even in COVID-19! But the prices here are exorbitant and IMO not enough to justify the visit unless money is of no object. On a Friday or Saturday night be prepared for long wait times and cover charges too. Be wary of their 'hidden charges' policy. It's absolutely insane! As a consumer, I always want to be informed exactly what the costs of everything are. That's why there's a menu, and I can compare and contrast. Well, if you're knew to Miami Beach, consumers have to adjust to 'hidden fees' that might be levied against them. We're beyond sales tax, but 'resort fees' 'service fees' and whatever else you wanna call it. Some charge between an extra 5-20 percent. And then there's Clevelander. And get this: You're charged an additional 30% surcharge, resort fees, just because. To add insult to injury, on some days Clevelander will also levy a cover charge. This place is outright committing highway robbery. So that eight dollar inflated bud light costs now eleven and twelve dollars. If you're not too careful you easily drop over a hundred dollars for a few drinks that normally would cost you thirty or forty bucks in total and just about any other restaurant. And since bartenders have absolutely no incentive to hustle since they're essentially being tipped 15-20% no matter what, this actually hurts customer service in the long run. Yeah, it's a complete ripoff. But the scene is actually interesting; especially on Sunday game days. You get people coming here of all flavors, shapes and sizes. The majority are tourists, but you also get a good crowd of natives here as well. Not gonna lie, It's actually a pretty good place to meet people of the opposite sex and possibly get their number to hookup later -- assuming that's your thing. Update: I had an extra 30$ mysterious charge to my credit card. Gonna have to contact my CC to clear that up. read more

We walked miles (yes probably 2 miles lol) along South Beach to get to the Clevelander. This is a pretty cool place! Managed to hit happy hour at 4pm so there were drink specials and $8 appetizer/picky foods. They get you on the drinks.... special might be $6 but they ask you if you want the $2 extra alcohol shot. Otherwise you're drinking just a sugar drink I think... hmmm... But who cares. We had fun! It's a great place to people watch. There are also cool cars cruising up and down the street. Service was great. Just watch it when you get your bill - they automatically add in 18%, then still suggest a tip at the bottom. read more

The customer service was excellent. While we didn't stay over night, we mich appreciated the curtesy of the front desk.

Drinks were weak tasked like sugar water and was lied to when came in, was told can ask to change music. The manager however, was rude and had zero customer service skills, coldly stated needed I to wait an hour for the dj to arrive and the music will not change and walked away. Would not recommend read more

Idk what to say. Comparing July 2021 to July 2009, Clevelander was surreal. There wasn't a night when the bar wasn't packed with a line to get in -- day or night -- once upon a time. Man, COVID has really hit these tourist spots. But, I'll be fair and review this place in an appropriate 2021 context. With that said, tip your servers well!!! Went looking for a spot to grab a drink and a bite. DJ was good, so we stopped in. Decided to get salads.... needed to get some greenery and roughage for a change :) Both salads were surprisingly good, considering the whole menu has elevated bar food vibes. Large portions on the salad too!! As always, good people watching right on Ocean Dr. Good music & drizzling breezy weather. Not a bad way to end a Tuesday. read more

sometimes it's not the hotel but the people who make the hotel and when I tell you, Michelle at the front desk is exceptional she handled every single thing for every single person. I watched her personally do this, and she was great to be involved with you guys truly have a gem. I will only come back for her. She made my birthday special. I'm truly thankful. read more

we always love stopping in at the Clevelander -- there is no place like it! Even last June, when we got caught in a scary thunderstorm, Renata made it into a fun experience. we will be at the Clevelander every time we visit South Beach! read more

We could not have been more disappointed in this hotel. We have visited South Beach many times over the past 4 years. This hotel is the worst. We found hair in the room. The pool is so cloudy & dirty you couldn't see the crud on the bottom {see pics} We were solicited three times in one day for illegal drugs on their property. It was loud no matter where you went in the hotel. This hotel is not by any means on par with the other hotels in the area. There are so many better choices when visiting South Beach. We tried to discuss our concerns with Mariano the manager on site but he said the hotel was full and they couldn't make any exceptions for our requests. Make note of this before you book Hotel in South Beach. They choose not to accommodate their guests needs. read more

Juan Carlos & Michelle were very attentive and went out of their way to accommodate us! That means a lot while on vacatio. Marie in house keeping was also attentive. She cleaned our room with LOVE! I'm sure all 3 of them are a great asset to this Hotel. read more

Hands down I would definitely recommend this hotel. Two hotel attendees who were the ABSOLUTE BEST Krissy and Michelle. Krissy took great care of me and my 2 girls as we arrived at 1:30am on a late flight. Michelle welcomed us with strawberry daiquiris. And Krissy was so nice to us as we returned from our cruise 4 days later, she allowed us to keep out luggages there for 3hrs until it was time for us to head to the airport....Michelle & Krissy ARE THE BEST!...I will definitely stay at the Clevelander again.​ read more

The location is great and ambiance is eye catching. I came here strictly for drinks and was highly disappointed. A friend and I were sharing the 45oz drink w two extra shots and it was WEAK. We pretty much paid $60 for juice only. The fact that two girls did not get a buzz with a 45oz shows the lack of alcohol. Extremely disappointed! read more

Will be returning here every time I'm in miami. The staff is friendly and helpful. The place is clean. The rooms are good size. Food is good. Drinks are not so good but I can work with that. Music is always on point. Had a blast! read more

Absolutely the worse service for drinks and eats. Security folks at the entrance having people lift their shirts (woman included) above their belly is laughable. Meanwhile you could have a weapon in your back or ankle and never have it detected. Security folks are a joke and rude to customers. Waitress for our table during a slow time was horrible, meanwhile, you have three bartenders all on their cell phones while customers are waiting to be served. The automatic built-in tip only results in piss poor service because they don't have to truly work for their tips. I wouldn't go back to this hole if I were paid. read more

Victoria was very helpful and has great customer service and she is a good asset to the company and she make u fell welcome

Fun spot for drinks with really retro and bright decor. Cool pool and dj area too! Definitely a must to stop by on ocean drive. We also got some fries which were tasty. Service was slow but expected during spring break in Miami. read more
