"South Beach Hotel"
Excellent hotel and the price is really good. I have tried a lot of hotels in Miami, and that's the best considering the price. Really comfortable.Genuine Hotels.com guest review
"Great hotel for a great price!!!"
The reviews I had read about this hotel scared me a little bit but when we arrived it was nothing like I expected. The room was beautiful and everything was very clean. As a matter of fact, this was one of the cleanest rooms and bathrooms I have stayed in, in a while!!! Location is PERFECT! It's THE place to stay in South Beach if you want something […] convenient and CHEAP! Read moreGenuine Hotels.com guest review

"Convenient to Convention Center"
Very fair price for a convenient hotel room within easy walk of Miami Boat Show at Convention center.Genuine Hotels.com guest review
"First timers, and surely returners!"
Came back from a cruise, and stayed an extra night in South Beach. Couldn't be happier for location and price. The beds were a little thought but not horrible. The staff was amanzangly friendly. Just blocks from the beach and many restaurants. We loved the old school Miami decor. They were more then happy to hold our luggage until check in time, and […] overnig valet parking was affordable. Will sure return here for my next SOBE Visit. Read moreGenuine Expedia guest review

"the Gal at the front desk"
She was so friendly and helpful. She was just a pleasure to talk to. She helped us find a near by resturant and call us our taxi when we left. She made the stay at the hotel the best!Genuine Hotels.com guest review
"2 stars is definitely 2 stars"
Thought from the mix reviews that it might be okay. Read alot about location it was not that close to the main strip although not that far. The room looks NOTHING like the picture, don't be decieved by that one... you can miss the hotel if you blink too fast. My suggestion if you want a dive and don't care about where you stay feel free. It is worth […] it to spend the couple of extra bucks for a nicer hotel. Note when expedia says 2 stars take it for what it says if you want cheap and non attractive go for 2 stars otherwise difinitely up grade. I suggest the Clevelander all day it is worth every penny.

"Royal South Beach Hotel gets 5 stars from us!!!"
From the great service, and awesome location not to far from the shops and beach, Royal Hotel made my 2nd wedding anniversary something to remember, I will surely book another vacation with them soon again.Genuine Hotels.com guest review
"Quaint hotel with great customer service"
I was overall pleased with my one night stay here. The hotel is conveniently located to the beach and Collins Ave. where all the action is. There was a good bit of street noise, but this is South Beach! The staff was fabulous and went out of their way to make our stay an enjoyable one. We were even upgraded to a pretty cool suite, with a kitchenette […] and plenty of room to spread out. The TV did not work due to some cable issues, but I wasn't there to watch TV so it wasn't really a big deal. If you are looking for a luxury hotel, this is not your place. However, this historic hotel is perfect if you are laid back and looking for a place full of charm, that is clean and comfortable. Read moreGenuine Expedia guest review
this place was cute. it is no five star hotel, but does not claim to be. everything was clean, just needed some updates. if you can get a good deal for it, i would stay there, if not perhaps somewhere else. however, there are a lot of these "less expensive" south beach hotels and they are all a bit run down, so i consider this i pretty great choice […] and really enjoyed my stay.

"Great stay in South Beach, we definitely recommend!"
We visited south beach for Art Basel this year. We'rent sure what to expect when we got to the hotel, but we were pleasantly surprised. The staff was so helpful and they check us in early. The room was modern and clean. I have no complaints, the location and hotel was perfect, so close to all the shopping in south beach. It's no as close to the art […] basel convention but that wasn't a big deal. There's also a great Colombian restaurent down the street, La Ventana which was great!

"Nothing like the pictures"
The location is great, but this hotel is damp, dingy, and gives off an overall vibe of unclean. The room looked nothing like the pictures on their web site.Genuine Expedia guest review
"Royal at Miami Beach"
The thing I like the most was the cleanliness of the bed and that the people in the front desk was really kind to me and my sister. I´ll be back soon!!!!!!Genuine Hotels.com guest review
"Close to everywhere"
I thoroughly enjoyed my stay. The beach was close by, and so were the clubs and restaurants. I would stay here again if I ever get to go back down that side. The outside did not look very inviting, but the inside made up for it all.Genuine Hotels.com guest review

"Little Gem in SoBo"
Was there for a long weekend and was really happy with my choice. Friendly staff, no frills though fancy rooms, convenient location but still far away enough from the party noise. Will defo go back.Genuine Expedia guest review
"Royal South Beach Hotel"
Whilst centrally located the hotel is posiitoned above a night club which pumps out music until 4.45am - exactly! Windows are not doubleglazed so every noise keeps you awake at night. The accommodation I would descibe as an overpriced backpackers hostel. Clean but very basic rooms. We spent 2 sleepless nights there before deciding to move hotels. The […] staff were very friendly although we were kept waiting for half an hour for our room even though we arrived at 5pm. Read moreGenuine Hotels.com guest review
"Great location, but you get what you pay for"
This was a great deal to have a place to stay just two blocks away from the beach (blocks - not steps like the website says). Actually, the website is quite deceiving on the look of the rooms. Remember, this is an old building that did receive some renovation, but has to be preserved and cannot be upgraded too much b/c of city ordinances (or something […] like that). The rooms are NOT as nice as they look on the website. "High-tech technology" includes a safe, TV (~26-in.) bolted on the wall, and an A/C unit. The "deco floating bed" looks like a hospital bed to me. And there's a futon squeezed into the side of the room. It's small with tile flooring that is not comfortable when you come back from the beach with sand. But it's a cheap place to stay in SoBe. One front desk employee was very helpful! Very talkative with high energy and gave great suggestions (I'm sorry, can't remember her name). Others didn't look happy to be there. There's a club just downstairs, so be prepared to hear the music late into 2am on Fri and Sat nights. Valet parking cheaper than other SoBe hotels, but we didn't know valet parking would be our only option with the hotel until we got there. There's a parking garage 1 1/2 blocks away as a cheaper option. Overall, I'd recommend this place for the location and price, but I walked into it expecting a 4-star hotel feel, according to the website. Please only expect 3-star hotel quality.

"Very simple Hotel."
Not very expensive, very good neighborhood, very near to the beach. Rooms are very simple. Sometimes dirty towels.Genuine Expedia guest review
"For the party crowd its great, otherwise not the best choice."
A short review that is straight to the point; The staff was very friendly and tried to make our stay a pleasant one. The room was clean. The rooms are in need of repair. There is a night club down stairs as others have mentioned. So I would only suggest this hotel IF you are also going to be partying (regardless of where in Miami beach) because then […] by the time you want to sleep the noise from the night club wont bother you. Another possibility is if like us you will be so tired by the time you get to the room that you pass out and then the noise doesnt bother you. If one of these two conditions aren't true I can guarantee you won't get any sleep. So in short I liked the hotel it was cheap near the beach and it met our needs as we were only staying for one night and new we would be tired anyways. But even as a very sound sleeper I would not have been able to sleep here if I was not so exhausted. Read moreGenuine Expedia guest review
"Oh no, not again!!!"
We stayed two nights, and it was two nights too many. The first night we stayed in a room that had no curtains at the window,bars on the window and the blinds bent. Tiny TV, safe not working. The second day we changed rooms and this room was better. Did not feel real safe on the block of this hotel. There was a shelter or some kind of a facility for […] homeless men very close to the hotel. Read moreGenuine Hotels.com guest review
"Great Location and Price!"
walking distance to the beach and clean and comfortable!...if you just need a place that's nice enough to sleep in between going out and the beach then its perfect! if your looking for fancy amenities and high price decor than no i wouldn't recommend this place. i wasn't planning on being in the room, so it was great!Genuine Hotels.com guest review
"Not that bad but not great either"
Royal South Beach Hotel was only a small step up from a hole in the wall. You can't beat the location, but the whole hotel needs a face lift - upstairs when going to your room, the hallways are BRIGHT yellow with dark and dirty carpet and bright white plastic "art deco" furniture. The rooftop deck is painted all purple but is not a bad place to people-watch […] and take a quick dip in the jacuzzi. Overall, the hotel staff was friendly but average, the facilities were serviceable and the location is good if you don't want to stay on Ocean or Collins which are much nosier.

"oh no!!"
arrived at the hotel at 430 pm to be told our room was not ready. We had to chain up our luggage and go get something to eat. What a scary neighborhood. Don't leave the hotel after dark. When we got back at 630, our room was still not ready. No repeat visits for me. The only good thing was the staff was friendly.Genuine Hotels.com guest review

"great pre crusie stay"
We stayed here one night before a criuse and it was a good affordable place. Some of the reveiws had us concerned but we were pleasantly surprised. The lady at the front was super nice. The beach is rite up the street. Stores and food everywere around. The room was clean. Let's face it if you want a full luxury hotel you wana go elsewere. If u want […] clean and cheap this is it.

"Far from Royal but good enough"
If this hotel were in my neighborhood, I would demand my money back but consider most hotels on South Beach are in old non-hotel looking buildings, it's something you must deal with. The thing I hated most was the parking....well, lack of parking. We got lucky and found a spot on the next block and yes, it was free. We didn't move the whole weekend […] to save on parking costs. The room was a standard room with two beds with a microwave and fridge which was nice. We didn't like the hallways, they seemed dark and it smelled. For the money, it wasn't worth it but considering the location, it makes me feel better about the cost. Read moreGenuine Hotels.com guest review

"A Royal Gem - Ultra Music Festival Weekend"
When I booked this hotel, I didn't know what to expect. Heading out for ULTRA MUSIC FESTIVAL, I wanted something plain & simple. This place was quiet, filled my needs and was a great price. Perfect location right off of 8th, and block off of Collins. Walking distance to Ocean Drive and anything you could ask for. Mel, the owner/front desk worker is […] great and very helpful. If you are planning to go out at night and enjoy the Miami nightlife, this place is PERFECT! Read moreGenuine Expedia guest review
"RECONSTRUCTION"
We were not very lucky staying in this hotel, because there's a reconstruction on the street were it is located, no cars can even drive on that Ave., and of course this is not good for the hotel. Maybe when this reconstruction is over, it will be nice to stay at the hotel, although the reception area is very small.Genuine Expedia guest review
"The Royal South Beach Hotel - Excellant location"
Overall, the rooms were clean,cool, and comfortable. Bathrooms decently sized and clean. Location was fabulous with the beach, dining, grocery, shopping, and nite life all within walking distance or a short cab ride. The staff were cooperative, and maid service quick and friendly and came later in the day. Internet and a computer in the lobby were available […] for use. The outdoor patio and spa tub offered a great social arena to mingle with other guests at the hotel. Some noise came from the patio but was only noticed for a few hours in the evening. There was some construction being done on the street entrance side, but the noise was tolerable and they were done working in the early evening. Overall we really enjoyed our experience and would not only stay there again, but recommend it as well. Definitely an affordable "pearl" in South Beach. Read moreGenuine Hotels.com guest review

"Great location! So-so amenities."
My girlfriend and I got a great deal, basically taking the cheapest hotel we could find in South Beach during Spring Break. The location was perfect - just two blocks from the beach and an easy stroll to all the nightspots. This hotel is a bit old and worn. Our AC unit was loud and seemed to lack coolant, but the room was comfortable if we ran it during […] the day and turned it off at night. The hot tube is a nice touch, but the water was always lukewarm. Our room was not cleaned one day so I had to get fresh towels myself. That said, we got what we paid for and were mostly satisfied. The rooms were generally clean, we had no bed bug problem and didn't read of any online, and the kitchenette saved us so much money by allowing us to eat breakfast and lunch in the room. If we had the money, we'd probably want something a little cushier. But since cash was a concern, this hotel did the trick! Read moreGenuine Hotels.com guest review
"Simple decor but clean, great location"
This place is totally fine. Read reviews before going and it seemed like it was 50/50, good & bad. Room was clean, bed was very comfortable, location was great. What else can u ask for? Not the most luxurious room I've ever stayed in, but for the money, it was ideal.Genuine Expedia guest review

"Good to sleep only"
Did not expect not to be able to park car and high cost of valet parking. Room very small (had been promised two queen beds), no cooking other than microwave and no equipment. Early morning room service not available even when requested. Solarium used for drinking parties at night.Genuine Expedia guest review
"Royal South Beach - Simple, plain but well located"
Modest hotel. Good localization (walking distance to Ocean Drive, restaurants, etc.). Old (constructed in the 1930's). No parking for guests (valet parking $27/night). No luxuries. Bed was ok (not great).Genuine Hotels.com guest review

"nice hotel, great location!"
Great great location! You'll like it as long as you keep in mind how much you pay for it!Genuine Expedia guest review
"Great location, less than great place"
Great location. Hotel is dirty. Breakfast is not worth the $5...go somewhere down the street for a delicious breakfast for the same price. I would only recommend it because of it's location. The water randomly turned off one afternoon...it turned back on within 10 minutes.Genuine Expedia guest review
