Upon driving up to the hotel from the road, your first thought will be "uh-oh". If you have visited Myrtle Beach or Clearwater Beach in the 70's you'll recognize the architecture of the hotel and rooms. Cool back then but woefully outdated in 2009. Lobby was nice. Back entrance from parking lot is nasty, and doors are unlocked at all... more

The location of the property is excellent - near all the attractions. We checked into the hotel; the lobby was very attractive, I felt good at that point about our choice in a place to stay. We were assigned to a room on the top floor, the elevator was the first sign of wear and tear on the property. When... more

This hotel is conveniently located just a block away from downtown St. Joseph and within a block or two of the beach. We walked from the hotel to the beach and around the downtown area. The lobby seemed to have been newly renovated and makes the hotel seem much more up-scale than it actually was. The rooms were decent--clean, but... more

The hotel is old, outdated, with only one of two very slow elevators working at the time of our stay. Breakfast was free (thank goodness) but consisted of powdered eggs, cold cereals, juices, breads, etc. The worst part of going to breakfast there was the unsmiling, curt, employee with her clipboard standing at the entrance of the breakfast room; she... more

I have to say, after reading the reviews before traveling to the Silver Beach Hotel, I was very skeptical. I need to say, that I thought it was a very pleasant place to stay. We were there for a wedding, so there were quite a few rooms booked for this. The staff were all kind to us, the managment staff... more

The hotel was in a great location and easy to find, so we booked it - even though it was very pricey ($175.00). The lobby was nice and it looked clean. Our room was not exceptional, but it was clean. The hotel staff was very congenial and pleasant. We enjoyed the beach and fireworks and fell into bed at 11:00... more

The rumors are untrue...management did not cancel the fire department. There would have been no charge for their coming, even though the alarm was a false alarm. We spent hundreds of dollars to get our alarm company here on emergency holiday overtime to resolve the issue with the alarm panel Secondly, nobody was denied a late checkout on that day....

After reading all of the negative reviews here, I was hesitant to book at the Silver Beach. I am glad I disregarded the negatives here and booked anyway. The hotel is older, but not ancient. The staff is friendly and helpful. The "pet" rooms are all located on one floor, so we did not notice any "pet related" issues in... more

While the hotel is located well, the public relations and management is the worst I have ever seen. The room was adequate, however they did not provide any washclothes at all. The problem was that the fire alarm sounded at 2 a.m. Guests, of course gathered outside of the hotel until the situation could be cleared or a fire found.... more

Management response from
SBHotelSaintJoseph, General Manager

We're sorry that the housekeeper failed to stock the room with wash clothes. Obviously this was an oversight. The hotel would not have been charged for a fire department response, and in point of fact we spent hundreds of dollars in emergency overtime fees to our alarm company in order for them to resolve the issue with the alarm. Money...

This hotel is not fancy. The area of St. Joseph, however, drives the price up. We stayed here 3 nights during the week. The hotel is close to shops and restaurants, and the beach. Only one elevator was operational which didn't cause to much of a problem. Reading prior reviews almost made us cancel our reservations. We were part of... more

My husband and I stayed here 2 nights. The lobby was beautiful and the front desk staff was very pleasant. We noticed right off that there are 2 elevators one of which did not work! The other one broke down for a while while we were there. We were on the 6th floor. That was a long walk up. This... more
