Love the hotel and staff. They’re very nice. The bartenders are awesome. I wish I would’ve had a better sleep time. The slamming of doors in the morning was my alarm clock when I really needed to sleep after partying all night. I was in the last room next to the exit door. Oh boy that door was so loud when cleaning staff when outside. It was like every 5 minutes. Other than that I love the hotel. Because of that I may have to choose another one next time.

Arrived early in the morning, hotel has a 4pm check in. As we waited in the lobby we saw guests share concerns regarding their room. 1 guest qas moved due to the bed being soaked with urine which was obvious once the covers were pulled back. Another guests complained of being bitten multiples times through the night and asked about bed bugs, another guest used the ladies room near the lobby & exited complaining about the smell and lack of cleanliness. After hearing these conversations over an hour period I attempted to cancel through my booking site and was told it was at the discretion pf the hotel even though it was still 4 hours till check-in. I choose to secure lodging at a different hotel as we had 1-night in Miami & I had lost confidence in the Beacon as these concerns were brought to light.

My husband and I stayed at The Beacon Hotel from Oct 16–21, 2025, to celebrate his birthday. We chose it based on positive reviews, location, and inviting photos, but our experience was disappointing. The hotel looked outdated, and we weren’t told the elevator was broken until after check-in. Our 5th-floor room was small, poorly maintained, and had a broken microwave and window seal. The stairwell was filthy and damaged. The toilet malfunctioned daily, and though staff were polite, it was never fixed. Beach chairs were often unavailable or broken, and the bartender ignored us in favor of a friend. Despite friendly staff, the misleading photos, poor upkeep, and lack of accountability ruined our stay. Management refused even a partial refund, showing no concern for guest satisfaction. We urge travelers to choose another South Beach hotel.

Perfect location, very cool historic vibes, & friendly staff. The hotel definitely needs updating and the rooms did not match the pictures listed. The elevator was still broken and the staff said it would be fixed the next day, which it was not and made the 5th floor rooms difficult with luggage.
