Great location, but rideshares wont pick up there. Service was fine. Elevator is scary and broke my nail on the metal gate. Beds are not comfortable - super soft and you can feel every spring. Fridge barely worked. No soap in the bathroom.

An authentic art deco Miami Beach hotel experience. The room was clean and updated; staff was friendly and attentive; and access to dining and the beach is steps out the door. The hotel/room ins loud with music pumping well into the night, though.

Not too bad.

I had a pleasant experience at this hotel. The breakfast service was excellent, and the staff was friendly and attentive. The elevator was small, but it worked well. However, there was a minor issue with the bathroom door in my room. It didn’t lock, and when I called the front desk, no one came to check on it. Despite this small inconvenience, the dinner was delicious. Asked for a wake up call never received it.

The only positives about my stay were the comfortable bed and the large TV. Unfortunately, everything else made this one of the worst hotel experiences I’ve had. The first room I was assigned (Room 100) had a strong odor that smelled like a gutter, and the shower curtain was covered with mold. At first, I assumed it was just cleaning chemicals, but the smell persisted throughout the day and made the room uncomfortable to stay in. Later that evening, a different front desk attendant kindly offered me another room (Room 115). This room was cleaner and much better overall, but when we returned from the beach and dinner, the air conditioning had stopped blowing cold air. There was a fan on the ceiling, but it didn’t help much since there was no ventilation in the room, and it became extremely humid overnight. The bathroom had a small window, but it was screwed shut, so there was no way to let in fresh air. When I asked the front desk if they could open it, they declined, saying it couldn’t be done. It’s disappointing, as it would only take removing one screw to make the room more livable. Suggestion for management: Please consider adding proper ventilation to your rooms. Even installing a small exhaust fan or allowing the bathroom window to open would make a big difference for guest comfort.

When I did a Google search for art deco in Miami, photos of the Colony Hotel kept popping up so we decided to stay here in the heart of the art deco district and we're glad we did. The neon sign is iconic and the Scarface themed speakeasy in the basement is super cool. Although it lacks a few amenities of more modern hotels, it was a wonderful experience to stay at the Colony Hotel where Frank Sinatra, Dean Martin and Sammy Davis Jr. stayed back in the day. Kudos to the great staff especially Israel and Fernando for making our stay so memorable.
