Marseilles Oceanfront Hotel

It's at a good location nd the pool is 247, but the price u pay i would have expected more. The rm. Smelled like urine a lil, they don't tell u that whatever u use in the refrigerator u will b charged for it( prices r crazy). No microwave! Nd ants were in one of the beds ugh, I don't think i would stay there again but my stay in south beach was amazing

The only issue was parking, but that's South Beach...

Great location full of foreigners. Would have preferred a family enviroment

The room is really clean minus the gum stuck on one of our lamps. Bathroom newly renovated and updated and large. Beds were clean and I felt comfortable in the room. The only complaint is the noise. Walls are really thin and you can hear everythign going on outside and the hallway. Dont stay here if you are looking for peace and quiet. I had even gone out that night but woke up probably 7-8 times due to outside noise.

We only stayed 2 days but we had nothing to complain about. Yes, it is an older hotel but our room overlooking Collins Ave. was bright, clean, and comfortable. The staff was very accomodating and friendly. We really had nothing to complain about.

First it was false advertising on the internet,hotel looks nothing like pictures shown it was so bad we had to switch to a sister hotel which was the Dorchester and it wad average still not wat I expected from a South Beach Hotel.

Our experience at the Marseilles Beachfront Hotel was an experience I want to forget. When we booked this hotel our expectations were a clean, cozy, and comfortable experience and it was not. The room was small the bed was dingy and the bedspread had a cigeratte burn that was patched up shabby and smelled about 10 years old. The bathroom door would not close from years of paint, door jam appeared as the wood had termites, and NO WATER PRESSURE to bathe. The hair dryer on the wall was not secured therefore it fell inside the sink it was so close. The location of the hair dryer was clearly a code violation. The worst part was when we arrived the room temp was 77.F and no air thermastat in the room to control the air temp in our room. The AC unit was so old there was only one control for the floor so everyone had the same temp or higher. The air smelled so bad because the room did not have access to absorb the air in the room therefore not an efficient AC unit. We could smell cigeratte smoke from other rooms and bathroom smells in our room traveling through the AC vent and the noise the AC vent was making could not let us get a comfortable sleep. The hotel had constant air fresheners, probably because of the constant bad smell blowing from the AC unit. In addition, when we arrived on the first day, the hotel maintenance guy knocked on our door once yelling EMERGENCY!!! he needed to know if the water was turned back on he had turned it off. I told the guy off!!!!!! At that point I called American Airlines to get the hell out of there!!!!! I am going to complain about this awful HOTEL. This should not be allowed a hotel owner to capitalize and a hotel is under this condition.

I have stayed at this hotel before, but the room we got this time was smaller. We were with my 2 year old and they put us adjacent to the elevator. The doors have slats in them so you can hear everything! I know Miami is a party city so I knew that there would be noise when the clubs closed and people were coming back, but I had no idea how much noise would take place. The lobby smells too much like heavy perfume, and I took a peak inside the kitchen, scary to say the least. My room smelled like must, and my shower had black hairs all over the wall and came out like a trickle. It took like 20 minutes just to get clean. We checked out early and did not bother staying a second night in hell. The only good part of this hotel if you don't want anything fancy, is it is on the beach and close the Lincoln Rd. shopping and restaurants.

The hotel was nice nothing spectacular though. There were somethings that did bother me. We had a balcony with no view, the view was of the back of buildings! And the hotel had ONE ice machine that never worked. So i had to continuously go to the front desk for ice. And the shower felt like bathing in a sprinkler. This is most likely a 2/3 star stay. Otherwise i had a great trip just need a different hotel for next time.

Hotel is very nice & great location. I always stay at the Marseilles when I go to South Beach everything is in walking distance. Service is good and staff are very nice. Beach is right out back door!!!!!
