Having stayed here before (I'll give an honest review about that in a moment) I was browsing their website looking at deals for New Year. They offered a huge discount for Facebook fans so thought I'd check the rate. $419 plus taxes for our stay - brilliant. I clicked to book and was referred to their terms which stated that... more

Management response from
Fritz Fandino, Public Relations Manager

We apologize about the less than pleasant restaurant experience. Unfortunately it is something that is completely out of our control as the restaurant operation is a lease operation independently owned and operated. We will forward this review to the restaurant managers to follow-up with their staff, however it is completely up to their discretion whether they do it or not....

We arrived in Miami from Milan, on our way to Orlando. We decided to spend one night in Miami at South Beach. This was the perfect choice. The hotel staff were very friendly and very helpful. The room was yummy--two big beds, comfortable, great bedding, clean and white. The bathroom was great--good shower, great Aveda products. Lots of cold water... more

The location of the Beacon is fabulous, its literally on Ocean Drive and you're a 5 min walk to the beach. However, I have a couple of issues with the hotel generally rather than the location. On arriving the "King" room that we'd booked and paid for wasn't available - so we were downgraded to a Queen. I have to... more

We stayed 2 nights at the Beacon Hotel prior to a cruise, my husband and I (50), son (22), daughter (17) and their friend (20). We all loved the location. It was an easy walk across the street and through the strip of park to the beach. The beach was much nicer than we expected considering the urban area and... more

The rooms were quite small and the bathroom was very small. But for the convenience of being in the center of everything you could not beat it!!... more

Spent one night in transit and found the hotel quite pleasant and convenient. Desk person was very friendly and polite and we were upgraded to an ocean view room (well, a room at the front of the building overlooking the road and the beach beyond). Room was very spacious, modern and clean. Bathroom toiletries were first class (Aveda). Windows were... more

TERRIBLE for business travel. - No desk in room - Valet parking ONLY - which parked my car next to a construction site and now my ENTIRE windsheild is pitted from weld/grinding sparks. - Charged me after the fact for items I did NOT consume, then would not send documentation for expense report, nor credit back. - Ice machine broken... more

As many others have stated, you can´t beat this location. This is right on Ocean Dr with all the restaurants just outside the hotel, the clubs around the corner and the beach just across the street. The hotel itself is old (as everything else in the Art Deco area) and rooms, bathrooms, and general areas are all very small. The... more
