We loved our stay at the Betsy. It’s a beautiful hotel that offers a respite from the louder locations along Ocean Drive. Beach across the street with plenty of chaises that are not on top of each other. Such attentive staff, a beautiful, spotless room. We had one breakfast and one dinner at the Betsy… both meals were excellent. Love the piano in the lobby. We highly recommend the Betsy. We will return!
Just as pretty at night!

Room 347 was great, just noisy next to the delivery area, I would not stay in that room again, but the hotel was great. Service in the restaurant was just okay, the hostess was rude, food was good, server was not observant, breakfast service on the 29th October.

Staff is the best especially the friendly hotel manager Hendrik. They support the arts every Sunday on the premises which was great entertainment. My bed was very comfortable and even being over the front porch it was very quiet. Rooftop pool is great alternative to beach. Enjoyed beach service as well. The only negative was service at LT restaurant. It was terrible service. Still my go to and rightfully so in Miami Beach. A lovely hotel.

The Betsy Hotel is hands down one of my favorite places to stay—if I could give it 10 stars, I would! Every single person made our experience amazing: from the bellman to the receptionist, the front desk team, the bartenders, waiters, concierge, the General Managers, and even the cleaning staff—each person was warm, professional, and unbelievably accommodating. The food was delicious, the daily live music created the perfect atmosphere, and the rooftop pool had a really nice view of both the city and ocean. Our room was spacious, spotless, (it smelled so good) and so comfortable. The location couldn’t be better—right across from the beach with complimentary lounge chairs and umbrellas, and just a beautiful walk from the heart of South Beach. I’ll absolutely be booking here again—The Betsy Hotel is unforgettable!
