Great little historic hotel right on Ocean Drive facing the beach! We really enjoyed the hotel and its charm! Our room was very clean and the marble floors are great! The staff were very friendly and responsive when called upon. Depending on the time of year parking can be a little tricky as the hotel has no onsite parking. Plan to park in one of the city parking garages or use one of the valet services on Collins Street behind the hotel ($50 a night during our stay.)

The hotel is a 1937 art deco building, and while well maintained, it looks "tired," and it's not what you'd expect of a modern building - tiny elevator, tiny stairs, etc. The rooms are clean, but the doors connecting to the other rooms are paper thin, so you will hear EVERYTHING going on next door. The staff, for the most part, was very helpful. (Knowing Spanish is a must!). Once outside the property, it's party town 24 hours: loud music, huge crowds, restaurants next to each other, etc. Don't expect a good night sleep. Also, if you're out late, get ready to see people selling drugs (and more) despite the huge police presence. The parking situation is awful. Limited and restricted street parking and the lots are expensive. During spring break is even worse: the city closes down the streets so moving around it's inconvenient. In short, staying in the hotel is great if you understand that it's a historical building and you're not picky. Also, you're in a very popular, urban tourist area, so don't expect a quiet moment. You can have lots of fun if you can roll with the punches!

I enjoyed my stay at the Beacon Hotel, it’s in a great location, there are many food options, the area is very nice, there is a CVS next door to the hotel, the room (206) had a comfortable bed, was clean , had a mini fridge. The staff were very pleasant and helpful including the bartender who made delicious cocktails.The only thing missing from the room was NO MICROWAVE. We wasted a lot of food that could not be reheated. That is the only negative for me but may impact my return to this hotel.

This hotel was way below expectations. Front desk not friendly, noise and yelling down the hall at all hours of the night and the tub had brown residue in it with very limited space. Not ideal for families or small children. People smoking on every corner, beds hard and cheap , pillows lumpy and sheets felt like paper. The a/c barely worked and you have to keep your window curtains closed or people will look in your room. WTAF
