This hotel is in a great location with a very short walk to the beach and restaurants on Ocean Drive. There is a lot of local shopping very close to the hotel. We booked this hotel on hotels.com for a great rate. We were a little apprehensive after staying at their sister hotel the Clevelander in the past. Upon our... More

Small rooms with even smaller bathrooms, the only upside to this hotel is it is one block back from the beach behined the Clevelander. The air conditioning was too noisy and had to be switched off so we could sleep. The staff were friendly and could not be faulted at all. It is quieter than the Clevelander as the party... More

I saw a travel deal on Expedia and read the online reviews for the Essex House and decided to book the hotel. The reviews are very accurate. The rooms are small but reasonable (we didn't spend much time there anyway). Here are some pros and cons: Cons: 1) The air con was loud and was dripping water inside the closet... More

This was my 3rd time staying at the Essex House and I love it. The Staff is amazing and helpful at all times. The rooms are comfortable the location is close to the beach and all the south beach entertainment but its not roudy or loud. You also get to enjoy all the ammenities from the Cleavlander.

We were then greeted by the manager, Carlos who was cordial and... More

The sister hotel behind Essex House, The Cleavelander, is a bit crazy and guests at Essex House are able to use The Cleavelander's amenities - this is a nice perk. The staff is extremely friendly and welcoming. Although the bathrooms are a bit dated and our a/c unit was a... More

Since I've spent 7 days there with my wife the main issue I had was related to the lack of space to storage all our cloths- Not having drawers and a tiny closet - In spite of this problem the hotel clerks...

Stayed here with a friend in November 2012. The hotel is in a very good location in Miami beach. We were greeted by Austin and Brad who were fantastic in helping us settle in and also answer any questions we had. The rooms were very spacious and clean. The beds were very comfortable. The hotel is linked with the Clevelander... More
