My partner and I stayed for 2 nights in June 2009. Hotel was fine, located in the heart of the "art deco" district of south beach. Room was small but adequate, all was fine until we came home and recieved our Credit Card bill and realised we had been wrongly charged for using the mini bar". We were charged on... more

Last month I stayed at the Strand Ocean Drive with 5 of my girls and we had an amazing time. Our rooms (which are set up like trendy-style condos) were fantastic...modern appliances, clean, comfortable and conveniently set up. The bed felt like sleeping in a pile of feathers, making it very difficult not to sleep in all day. The fully... more

The Strand is a great place to stay if you don´t mind about the noise. The Ocean Drive is pure nightlife, and for many people that's what they look for visiting Miami. The room was very nice in terms of: decoration, cleanliness, and most of all it was smell free (some of the nicest hotels in Miami smell awful, because... more

The Strand was an absolutely amazing hotel with a wonderful location; however, we were very disappointed with many of the smaller elements that detracted from its greatness. When we arrived in the room, it distinctly smelled of smoke even though the concierge vehemently denied the allowance of the act of smoking in the room. The burn hole in our window... more

Great location if you are on vacation. To loud for a business trip. Try not to get a room in the 2nd bldg or you will be up all night with all the noise at night and then in the morning btwn the delivery trucks and construction. The service is good. The beds are not comfortable. You can't get extra... more

After having read all the reviews here, I knew I had to be selective with our room placement or we wouldn't get any sleep. We were put into a one-bedroom suite in the Tropical building, around the corner from Ocean Drive on 11th St. It was very quiet except for one night when the Versace mansion threw a party in... more

Again excellent staff. This hotel is located across the infamous sand of SOBE (south beach). Below hotel are many tourist and holidays are crazy. I went during spring break but Ocean Dr is crazy a lot of time anyway. The music from the restaurant played until I believe 7am...all night long bump, bump, bump!!! And started back up at uhhh... more

I just returned from a four-night stay at the Strand. Our room was very spacious. The furnishings were minimal and our futon was extremely uncomfortable and a little broken. The bed was very comfortable. The rugs were stained and buckling...definitely time for replacement. The TV was so tiny that we could barely see it from the bed. The kitchen was... more

We've returned from The Strand, Ocean Drive, today. We both loved the hotel and had a great holiday all round. The hotel is actually made up of 4 separate buildings. Our first room (the room was great - clean etc) was in the 'Deco' building-we did have to ask to be moved as the music was really really loud from... more
