This Hotel leaves alot to be desired, the cleanliness of the rooms and public areas is terrible. The corridors smell of tobacco smoke and the rooms at the front are really noisy whereas the rooms at the side are dark and dismal. The "free" breakfast consisted of 3 slices of bread toasted, 2 very small muffins and jam and butter,... more

After having stayed in other 3 star hotels in Orlando and Naples was looking forward to the hotel in Miami. I was put off by some of the reviews I had read but thought we would give it the benefit of doubt. I have to say that the sheets and towels were clean as this is the first thing I... more

Spent 5 days here, it was the second stay of my five week tour around America and before arriving I thought it would be the best hotel we stayed in (i was wrong). We arrive, having travelled from Orlando to be greeted by a check in man who was really unhelpful- he just said that he needed a credit card... more

Booked the Ocean Five Hotel as part of a Twin Centre holiday with Virgin Holidays. After a great 4 nights in Naples, we headed for South Beach on Friday afternoon. Arrived and got parked up quite easily ($25 a night parking) and checked in. Front Desk guy was a bit too quirky, trying to be clever rather than fast!! The... more

This hotel is the worst hotel I have ever stayed in. The only thing it has going for it is the location. We arrived at 9pm from a late flight to the hotel, giving them the anticipation via email of the flight delay the same morning. The concierge was smoking on the lobby door, he was very upset and definitely... more

Fairly basic hotel, although I suspect good value for the area, (some really exclusive places nearby!) Breakfasts are not much cop - go to The News cafe on Ocean Drive instead, and be prepared for huge portions - share the fruit bowl! The beach is very close, if you intend to visit it more than a few times it might... more

Well, what can I say that's good about this hotel..mmmmm..NOTHING!. This place spoiled my almost perfect holiday!..Were do I start..Was given a ground floor room, Outside is a carpark ..lots of noise..couldnt open any windows..room was like a torcher hut..air conditioner worked when it felt like..mostly for about 5 minutes every 1hour making more noise than south beach and blowing... more

I stayed at Ocean 5 twice in three weeks. It is a small hotel south of 5th which puts it in the quieter part of South Beach with easy access to the beach and all the bars, restaurants and clubs. Both the double and single rooms are nice and the decor suits South Beach. The rates are reasonable for the... more

All in all this hotel has a fair value to stay in for some days. PROS: - Very nice and friendly staff (always ready to provide a service) - Nice location (close to Miami South Beach & the Art Deco district) - Free towels - Outdoor breakfast CONS: - Dark and not properly cleaned room (sand on the floor) -... more
