    This was my first time visiting the Betsy Hotel LT restaurant and I went for Valentine's Day. So I'm not sure if the items are on the daily dinner menu, since it was a special Valentine's Day menu. I must say everything that I tried was absolutely delicious. The service was excellent, we had reservations for 8:30 dining and sat right away. They even gave us complementary Prosecco, which a nice touch and complementary tuna tartare appetizer, I was blown away by their generosity. I love mini touches like that, that make guest feel welcomed and appreciated. As my entrée , I went for the ricotta mushroom pasta, it's not a cute photo, but it was so delicious. It was the perfect balance of texture from the mushrooms and savory flavors from the ricotta filled pockets of pasta. The house made bread was crispy on the outside, soft on the inside and deliciously paired with their grass fed butter. For an appetizer, we had the Wagyu sliders and crabcake. The crabcake was one of the best I've had. To end the night we had a raspberry heart shaped tart. Soft cake like on the inside with a nice raspberry jam center. We sat outside and people watched right on Ocean Drive. It was a very nice night.

    My party of four got a mid evening reservation on a recent weeknight. Located inside the Betsy Hotel, the layout and decor is interesting. Food-wise, everything was solid, nothing spectacular. A strip steak and snapper were what my wife and I shared. Mushroom and avocado on the snapper dish were tasty, while the steak was ok. Solid service, but as noted above, everything was on a 3 star level.

    Popovers!

    A friend recently invited me to join her on a hotel scouting mission for some out-of-town partners, and I jumped at the chance when she mentioned The Betsy. I hadn't been back to this South Beach gem since my younger days, and it didn't disappoint. From the moment we arrived, the large, breezy veranda with its rocking chairs and overhead fans set the tone: elegant, coastal, chill. Since The Betsy sits at the quieter end of Ocean Drive, the energy is more refined. None of the usual chaos you find closer to 8th. It felt more like a chic Caribbean resort than a typical SoBe spot. We checked out the menu and decided to stay for lunch and bonus... they were participating in Miami Spice! We were seated right away, and by some divine twist of fate, landed in Nathan's section. And let me tell you: Nathan was everything. Attentive, knowledgeable, hilarious, and devilishly handsome. Now... the food. THE FOOD. It started strong with warm, cheddar popovers (YES!!! POPOVERS) that were absolute heaven. For apps, we shared the chopped vegetable salad (easily one of the best salads I've ever had) and the hen of the woods mushrooms, which were earthy perfection. From the Miami Spice menu, I went with: * Starter: Shrimp bao buns - tender, flavorful, and beautifully balanced * Entrée: King salmon over Moroccan-spiced garbanzos - flavorful, filling, and just the right amount of heat * Dessert: Chocolate mousse - rich, smooth, and not overly sweet We paired it all with their spicy margaritas, which were A+. Already planning my return and you better believe I'll be requesting Nathan's section again. PERIOD.

    The Betsy continues to shine year after year, visit after visit. We all love the Betsy, especially our pampered pooches who love the easy access to the park across the street. There's always live music in the lounge, beautiful art all around, and a gentle refined ambience throughout. Excellent overall! We respectfully suggest management kindly considering adding a couple items we could order exclusively for the pups - something like chicken breast, a burger or salmon. Great dining and drinking is available around the hotel. The Caesar salad is one of the best we've had anywhere. Keep up the excellent work! It's much appreciated.

    Elevated dining experience. Beautiful presentation and excellent taste. The Betsy sushi roll- recommend & the Betsy crab cake. Beautiful combination of flavor and execution of taste. I recommend this spot for sure

    3 out of 5 stars Breakfast at The Betsy South Beach - A Bit of a Letdown, But Great Service Saved the Day After strolling the South Beach strip in search of a breakfast spot, we ended up at The Betsy Hotel, drawn in by its charm. I ordered pancakes with sausage, and my partner ordered French toast with sausage and eggs. About 20 minutes later, our waitress brought my pancakes, along with both our sausage and his eggs--but no French toast. We began eating, assuming the rest was on the way. A few minutes later, the waitress returned to tell us they were out of French toast. My partner opted for pancakes instead, but five minutes later, she returned again to say they were out of those too. We ended up sharing my pancakes, but unfortunately, they were hard and barely edible--we didn't even eat half. While the sausage was tasty and my partner ate some of the eggs, the overall breakfast was disappointing. We spoke to the manager, Rene, about our experience. He was understanding and visibly upset that we were served what seemed to be the last (and likely old) batch of pancakes. He assured us that pancakes are made fresh in the morning and once they run out, that's it--but we should not have been served what we got. Renee comped our entire bill and took the time to genuinely apologize and chat with us. His professionalism and care really turned the experience around. Although the food fell short of our expectations, the service didn't. The waitress was kind and attentive, and we made sure to let her know it wasn't her fault and left her a tip. Overall, breakfast wasn't great--but thanks to Rene, we left feeling valued. I'd be willing to give The Betsy another shot next time we're in South Beach.

    I came to the Piano Bar for a Juneteenth event one evening and had the time of my life. The Harden Group was performing and I only planned on staying for one set-- but ended up staying for a few hours. The service and decor of the Piano Bar was excellent! There was a diverse crowd that trickled in and out most of the evening. I can't wait to go back and enjoy any future events The Betsy Hotel may have!

    The Betsy Hotel is an incredible place to stay right on Ocean Drive. They have everything: the best food, amazing staff, a rooftop pool and bar, live music, and DOGS!! The owners dogs (Betsy and Rosa) run the show and they're doing the best job ever, and yes in case you're wondering the hotel is dog friendly. Seriously though, this place is rad. The art and photographs are amazing. The restaurant downstairs (the seafood specifically) is truly elite. And the staff are so kind. Shoutout to Daniel and Gustavo at the pool, Carolina at the cafe, and Jose at the restaurant!

    My customer service was great. The presentation of food was wonderful. I enjoyed breakfast on a morning when the weather felt perfect, so I dined outside. The facility appeared clean. The floors appeared tidy too, which was a made it look better than some of the sister restaurant locations. This is the 3rd spot visited since my arrival and it tops the other two.

    Drink only: I enjoy the Betsy for the piano bar. This place boasts awesome live music and a wide menu variety. Their servers are friendly and quick and the drinks hit just right. Have not stayed here for the hotel but went around and loved the vibe and friendly staff. I'd recommend!

    So, The Betsy Hotel is a five-star experience, BUT it might not be one for you. It's not the superglitz of the well-polished high end Vegas properties. Rather the vibe is "You have an old-money multimillionaire friend with a well-maintained family beach house on a lovely part of the East Coast who's invited you to come stay for a while." You know. You get it, right? The Betsy abounds with pleasant places to sit in private or with others - decks, lounges, balconies . . . whatever grabs you right at the moment. The place is kind of a funky maze that takes you a while to figure out; once you do, you feel like you're family. Music sometimes - classy jazz, but sometimes a bit loud. Great beach access and a private pool for when the rip is going. Easy access to great eats. A quick stroll gets you out into the action. But at home, there's a unembarrassedly chill vibe - just family - oh, go ahead and borrow a book! Art everywhere - all worth examining, but there's just so much of it that you don't feel pressure to do right now. Every guest you encounter is gracious and polite (even the kids!) - no one is trying to impress anyone else, but there's an elegance - a tasteful elegance that underlies everything: the certainty is that if you're here, you don't NEED to impress anyone. It wouldn't have been the place for me when I was in my late twenties trying to court my wife and make a splash. But The Betsy sure suits us now. We've stayed all over Miami Beach since the Eighties - my wife and I were both surprised to find that The Betsy struck us as the most conveniently located of all these places. It seemed like nowhere in SoBe was difficult from our home base. We had one of the Betsy Balcony rooms (I like to smoke a puro in Miami Beach, and that gave me the opportunity): it was beautifully appointed - lovely decoration and smart storage features and conveniences. Small, but, not as small feeling as the photos implied to us. WiFi was strong everywhere inside but could fade at certain spots of the courtyard and was a no-go on our balcony. Big thumbs-up for the ceiling fan. The in-room fridge was convenient, as were the desk and all the drawers for storage. (Downside is it's tough to find a place to hide your luggage.) We stayed five days and did not go crazy in the space; on the contrary, we came to really like it. The one thing that every guest we met commented on was how easy it is to get lost in The Betsy: there were two hotels that were connected (on the third floor, through that silly Orb thing you see on Instagram) and there are multiple elevators and stairwells to navigate to get through them. It's worth figuring out: being able to traverse the areas makes everything very convenient (hey, you want to walk out the door to catch your Uber on Collins, right, not have to navigate over to the weird little cut-off part of Ocean by the Starbucks?) and only takes a day of paying attention to figure out. Nevertheless, every guest had an "I got lost!" story and a bartender joked that it would be an ideal sobriety test. (Everyone is helpful when you get lost, and it all makes sense once you do it a couple times.) NB: while it's a pet-friendly hotel (and I'm allergic to pet dander) and there were guest dogs and hotel dogs present, I didn't see a single hair or sneeze once anywhere. Wonderfully clean. All the staff we encountered, from housekeeping to waitstaff and bartenders to management and engineers - they were all welcoming, low-key and gracious. A particular shout-out to Renzo at the front desk, Evan at the bell desk, Art at the concierge desk and especially Jose and Joanny at breakfast - all were particularly friendly and especially helpful. If it sounds like a place for you, go and enjoy. My wife and I will certainly return.

    Had amazing huevos rancheros--easily the best I've ever had, thanks to the kick from fresh Serrano peppers. Served sizzling hot on an iron skillet (careful!). Our server Jorge was kind, attentive, and made the experience even better. Great food, great service. Highly recommend!

    We stayed at the Betsy Hotel for my husband's birthday with our children and the staff was incredibly friendly from the checkin desk to the restaurant. They even have hotel dogs named Betsy, Rosa and Daisy. The owners John and Leslie were always engaging with the guests sharing their dogs for us to pet and love. We can't wait to go back. I also recommend staying in the penthouse. There is a near story about the chandelier that Leslie shared with me. I love history of a place and the stories that come with it. What a great experience.

    Checking the weather with Juan, thank you for all you do sir!

My gf and I stopped through here on our way out before boarding our flights later in the afternoon. If you're toting your luggage and not a hotel guest, you will have to find another hotel to store your luggage while enjoying this most decadent brunch experience. Luckily we arrived early enough to our reservations to sort that out. Reservations are a must if you don't want to wait. The restaurant is gorgeous with various spaces designed differently but keeps to the exotic Asian theme. Dining in the atrium near the water feature in the middle with stage for the musicians is where we had our experience. Olga was our server. She brought us our special beverages not available at the bar: Bloody Mary's and endless bubbly in our glasses The offerings here are more than I can name, but there is something to satisfy every craving. The favorite for me is the caviar bar. It comes with all the proper fixings on a blini with Crème fraîche. Do you need a vodka shot to go with? Yes, that's also available also at the caviar station. Fresh raw oysters, clams or shrimp cocktail is available in abundance with everything else here. The ceviche was great. I passed on all the various noodles but had to have some lamb curry and basmati rice- delicious! I had some Peking Duck and leg of lamb at the meat station. The filet mignon and lamb chops was ordered and brought to the table. The leg of lamb and filet were slightly dry but still good. The lamb chops with chimichurri sauce was amazing- nuances of vibrant flavors. Assorted fresh fruits were a colorful collection of enticements. I saw some papaya and enjoyed its fresh, sweet juiciness. I am not a dessert person but had to try the key like pie. Then of course, the matcha dessert is a sitting temptation next to the pie. So, my dessert spoils were more than intended. What the hell right? Lol That was the sweet ending to my Setai brunch. There was so much more such as bread, fried stuff, eggs, bagel station, toast etc. One can only eat so much. I stuck to enjoying my favorites. The experience is pricey but so worth it. It is truly the best brunch experience I've ever had. - better than Vegas and a cruise ship!! I always have to experience a Setai brunch whenever in Miami!

You must walk through the lobby and across the outside area. The sauna and the one person steam shower is located here. You Check-in then you get changed into the robe and walk across the lobby check-in area to the elevators. You are walking through the area with all the guests and their luggage in your super large robe that doesn't close very well. I did not enjoy this. Some disappointing things which was not their fault is the parking garage construction noise even on Sundays. The noise took away from my spa experience. They did nothing for the noise control. Also, the SPA requests you must arrive 30 minutes before your treatment time. I got my parking validated BUT we stayed for brunch who also validated our parking but we went over the 4 hours so we got no discount for parking and we were charged the full $35 fee plus tip for the valet. The valet staff was quite nasty telling me we were there too long for the discount BUT each one of those alone qualified for a discounted valet. You can not do both in the 4 hour window.

You'll often see people jogging, exercising, and enjoying the outdoors, which adds to the energetic South Beach vibe. The walk around the area is pleasant, and the overall atmosphere feels fun and relaxed. Overall, the Kimpton Surfcomber Hotel is a wonderful place with great service, good food, and a cool beachside vibe. I would definitely recommend it for a comfortable and enjoyable stay.

Every time Ana has been our server, we've left happier than when we arrived. If you're visiting The Local House, do yourself a favor and ask for her -- she makes the meal unforgettable. Highly recommend this place, and especially Ana.

After a long day of travel, we received two Prosecco as soon as we checked in and arrived. Our room was upgraded and it was located right across on top of the Naked Taco where the rooftop pool is at. It's perfectly located for anything you want to do, all the good food spots, bars, places, etc. The next day we went straight to the beach and they provide complimentary beach chairs, towels and umbrellas upon request and you just walk yourself to the beach with them. There's nothing like Miami Beach! The water was perfect and it felt so good to just defrost on the sand and dive into the gorgeous turquoise water. After a few hours at the beach, we went back, enjoyed late check out and headed to crunch fitness - which was absolutely worth it! We were able to leave our bags at the front desk while we worked out, grabbed a late lunch, some drinks and then got to come back and enjoy the rooftop pool during happy hour for drinks and snacks until sunset. It was the perfect Miami daycation that we needed!

And the five-star touch continued inside thanks to Melody, the Director of Front Desk, who made us feel like our stay actually mattered. We were celebrating a very special occasion--dinner plans were set, we simply needed a place to spend the night. What we got was an incredible room with a private terrace and a stunning view of South Beach. And as if it couldn't get any better, we were surprised with a complimentary bottle of champagne, which made for the perfect nightcap, and an even better start to the morning alongside our mimosa. If you're staying in South Beach, Dream is more than a name--it's an experience!

Upon arrival, we were greeted by the staff and assisted us to our room after an easy check-in. The room was smaller than expected for the rate, but the view and amenities made up for the size.

Also a short walk near Park Ave which has other amazing eateries and including cafe and bistro's. The grounds are well maintained with upscale vibe and decor. The lobby bar is cozy with a sexy vibe. My wife experienced the spa which she said was fabulous. Pool has plenty of chairs with umbrellas and staff were courteous, friendly and attentive.

However since we paid tripple that price I have to be way more critical. The staff makes it extra special. They were all friendly and had the "I can do it for you attitude." Kudos to the staff. Our "up-graded" room facing half ocean/city was tiny, a tad worn, had a very nice view, and non impressive toiletrees. The worst part of our room was the side of the hotel we were on. Our room was on the industrial exhaust fans side and it was extremely noisy. Had to keep our balcony door closed to drown out the noise. The location of the hotel, as others mentioned is ideal. Now here is the scary part...we got stuck on the elevator two times. It wasn't a long time but enough to scare me especially since I am very claustrophobic. I ended up taking the stairs to the 9th floor the rest of our stay. They did fix the elevator but this happened to quite a few guests and they didn't shut the elevator. Our complimentary breakfast (free with my Marriott status) was not the best. Breakfast is served in the attached Mexican restaurant which is not owned by Marriott. It is not a buffet. Small menu with the basics. Food was fair. We enjoyed the pool and the short walk to the beach. The pool restaurant has the best hotdogs! And we also enjoyed the quinoa salad.

    Fontainebleau Miami isn't just a hotel -- it's a full‑scale Miami moment. The kind of place where…read moreyou walk into the lobby and instantly feel like you've stepped into a glossy magazine spread. High ceilings, marble everywhere, and a buzz that tells you you're in the right place. What impressed me most? There's genuinely plenty to do for all ages, which is not something you can say about every Miami resort. Whether you're traveling with kids, teens, adults, or a multigenerational crew, everyone finds their lane here. The pool scene is the heartbeat of the property. Multiple pools, each with its own personality -- family-friendly areas with space to splash, quieter corners for lounging, and the high-energy spots where the music and cocktails flow. Service was dialed in across the board: fast, friendly, and always one step ahead. Rooms were spotless and stylish, with balconies that make you want to order room service just to soak in the view a little longer. Housekeeping kept everything crisp, and every request was met with that effortless "of course" attitude. Dining is another standout. From quick bites to full-on fine dining, everything was fresh, flavorful, and beautifully presented. Even the grab-and-go spots felt elevated. And if nightlife is your thing, you don't need to leave the property -- the energy here after dark is pure Miami. But if you're traveling with kids or just want a low-key night, the resort still feels comfortable and accessible. Fontainebleau nails that rare balance of iconic luxury and all-ages fun. It's bold, glamorous, and buzzing in all the right ways, yet still manages to be welcoming and easy to enjoy no matter who you're traveling with. A true Miami classic that continues to deliver. Enjoy

    I would never stay at the Fontainebleau Miami again. We booked 6 junior suites for 12 people for a…read moreproposal weekend and stayed 4 nights, with one room being a full suite -- and the experience was honestly shocking for a hotel at this price point. The Fontainebleau Las Vegas is impeccable, so we expected the same level of luxury and service here. Unfortunately, this location feels run down and poorly managed. The beds literally cave in in the middle, rooms feel outdated, and basic amenities were a struggle. There's nowhere to get ice yourself -- you have to call for it -- except no one ever brought it despite us requesting it multiple times over all 4 days. For a "luxury" hotel, there were also no slippers, no robes, and no 24-hour room service, which was surprising considering the price point and reputation. The full suite, which was the most expensive room we booked, had multiple issues: the shower head was rusted with water barely coming out of several holes, and the refrigerator leaked huge puddles onto the floor. We even encountered very rude interactions with both a poolside employee and a pool restaurant employee. Monday morning, my boyfriend and I wanted to sit in a cabana for literally 10 minutes to eat a bagel and coffee we had purchased from their café because we simply needed shade. The entire pool area was practically empty, yet we were shooed away in a very disrespectful manner. Later, when we went to COTE for lunch, the food and drinks were amazing and our servers were fantastic -- but once again, the front desk staff had a condescending attitude. We were asking what seating was available and discussing options within our group since we wanted a normal sit-down table. After we asked a follow-up question to clarify what wasn't available, the hostess responded with, "Do you want me to show you the tables so you can figure it out?" Meanwhile, the tables, couches, and bar seating were directly in front of us. We were simply trying to understand the wait and seating situation, not asking to be spoken to disrespectfully. What made the experience even worse was management. While discussing concerns at checkout and showing photos/videos, the manager was sitting on her phone while we were speaking to her. I've genuinely never seen someone so unprofessional in a management position at a luxury hotel. On top of that, friends and family tried sending champagne to the suite for the proposal celebration. It became unbelievably difficult. Emails went unanswered, calls weren't returned after multiple attempts, and one person who paid for the champagne had to text us directly asking if we received it -- because the hotel never delivered it. Only after they called again the following day to complain did the champagne finally arrive. Overall, this hotel feels like it stays busy mainly because of conventions and the iconic name, not because of the actual guest experience. The only highlight? The late-night food truck was honestly 10/10.

I asked repeatedly for an early, 2pm check-in. When I go there around 2:15, the front desk area was in chaos. There were 2 people being waited on and I was first in line, but had to wait for ~10 minutes to get any attention. Even with repeated communication, the room was not ready. My kids were heading into melt down mode. Not a great start. I got a call at 2:45 that my room was ready. We headed back around 4 and then it was the same chaos, and very long wait to get our 1 piece of luggage. Once upstairs, the hotel is very neat and tidy and our room was a 2 bedroom suite with a balcony, facing the bay and city. The condition and working order of the room, bathroom, and kitchenette were excellent. We loved the minimalist aesthetic. They did have a happy bday card and some chocolates for me in my room - a very nice touch. The main event downstairs is the pool area. They had a DJ playing vibey lounge music and it was packed with people chilling and drinking as mature adults. Definitely not a wild spring break scene. The pool is heated, too. The best is being in the pool as the sun sets - very magical as the place goes from day to night. Great hotel - lousy front desk. I reviewed the restaurant, Baia, separately - great waterfront vibes, so-so food, and disorganized service.

    MUSTY room. Disappointing doesn't even begin to cover it…read more I booked a 3-night stay (Sunday-Wednesday... so no partying, all "school nights," and not during any major Miami events like Winter Music Conference, Miami Open, Formula 1, Boat Show, or SoBe Wine & Food Festival). This was a quiet work trip. As someone who grew up in Miami, I always thought of the Mondrian as a solid, above-average hotel. It was reputable, with good hospitality, nice amenities, all that jazz. Well... this stay was disastrous. The room was musty and clearly not properly cleaned. There were countless stains, dust bunnies, scratches and cracks on surfaces, and different hairs in multiple areas of the room. Just overall extremely unpleasant. I genuinely felt uncomfortable staying there. The robe in the closet had several holes (not small. very obvious, literally the first thing you see, and they still hung it up like it was acceptable). The toilet barely flushed, consistent plumbing issues. The bathroom had visible oxidation on the shower head and hose. The ceiling shower head and one of the lightbulbs were broken, and several other lights were dim. Front desk experience? Honestly shocking. I'd expect this level of attention at a low-tier chain, not here. Staff behind the counter were scrolling Instagram Reels or TikTok (with volume) while guests were standing there. Just incredibly careless. After my first night, I went to the front desk and asked if all rooms were this unkept and in such poor condition. They acted surprised. I showed them photos (with the dust, sticky residue on the bathroom floor, hair in multiple places) and they said they'd notify housekeeping to properly clean the room. Well... housekeeping never showed up. Not once during my entire 3-night, 4-day stay. Super disappointing, because this hotel has potential and used to be great. I even overheard another group at breakfast talking about how disappointing their room was and another woman in the elevator also had a similar experience... so clearly not an isolated issue. Valet was also hit or miss. The guys mostly just standing around, sometimes opening the door, sometimes not. No help with luggage when I arrived. Just an overall lack of training, standards, and any real sense of guest experience not just with valet but everyone else. Expect the restaurant staff, they were wonderful. And to be clear, l wasn't in a standard room. I booked a junior suite, and the only redeeming quality was the space (which was not properly used so it felt awkward honestly). Everything else? Terrible. Would absolutely not recommend. The property is in rough shape, and worse... it feels like nobody cares to fix it.
