The Savoy Hotel - Miami Beach

The hotel overall was of great quality. There is a host of pros and cons for this property: PROS - Direct beach access / clean rooms / attentive maid service / beautiful resort style pool area / for its size the gym is well equipped / great location (it is just below 5th street which means it is quiet at night. All the hotels above 5th are also night […] clubs, and therefore very loud until 4 or 5 in the morning. You're able to very easily walk to any of those clubs, and walk back for a quiet nights sleep at 2 or 3 or whenever you usually finish a night out.) / great nearby restaurants (Tongue & Cheek is a fantastic place for dinner and Fratelli di Buffala serves excellent pizzas which are made according to DOP standards of Naples) CONS: Some rooms do not have a balcony (this is acceptable, but make sure you ask for one if you know you want it) / Although the hotel was overall clean there were minor rust stains and etc. in the public areas (probably just nit-picking, but I feel attention to detail is important). Overall I would return if the price was right, otherwise I would go south a bit more and stay at the Marriot or Hilton which are pretty much at the southern most point o South Beach and still only a 5 minute walk from 5th street.

Good location, in a quiet area of ocean drive, but still convenient., 15-20min walk to Lincoln Road Mall. Older building, old doors, gets very noisy at times, you can hear all the noise from the hallway. Room was okay, not as nice as on the pictures. Nice pool area and access to beach. Overall, average stay, nothing special, but no major issues to complain […] about. Read more

Very happy with our choice.

The hotel is in a great location, on the beach and just steps from Ocean Drive. The pools are well maintained and all the staff I encountered were welcoming and friendly. The rooms are very large and the property is spotless. My only complaints were the furnishings in my room appeared tired and the hot water supply was questionable. I also did not like […] paying a resort fee at check-out when I prepaid the entire room in advance. Read more

Mgt recently spent big bucks to refurbish this Hotel. It needed it. Now really first class in the best part of SoBe right on the beach. No complaints. Frank, Brighton, MI

Being there for the beach and outdoor activities, we weren't looking for a spa experience. What we had was the ideal location, beach access, and a very nice room and staff. Totally enjoyable long weekend!

The Savoy was perfect for our purposes. Not too crowded, nice pool, beachfront. We were upgraded to a suite room with a full living room & kitchen, which was nice. The bed, however was most definitely a full, not the queen we requested. Though this is not one of the fancier hotels on the ocean strip, it was good enough for us and I would return.

Everything went very very well until there was a massive construction going on right outside my room starting at 8am the day I was due to depart. I felt like I was sleeping in a war zone. Other than that, the staff were really nice, the bed was very very comfortable, the location was reasonably close to the center of South Beach yet not too close to […] it so that there's a bit of space and calmness.

Great location! Close to the nightlife on Ocean Dr, but without the noise. Beautiful scenery and very clean. We left on a monday and the maintance workers were busy painting, fixing, items throughout the facility. Definietely would return again!

Genuine Expedia guest review

Ideal location "south of 5th". Easy walking to South Beach strip, boardwalk, restaurants, shops, etc. Beautiful outdoor area with two pools, one heated for cooler days. Just steps to the beach. Large comfortable rooms with separate bedroom/living areas. Very attentive/responsive staff. The onsite restaurant/bar is very basic and in need of an upgrade […] but was not an issue for our group given the multitude of options just steps away. Read more

Rooms are large. Former apartments. I liked the quiet, peaceful setting. I would stay here again. However, the finishes in the room are simple and dated. The price is appropriate for product and there is value in price. For my taste, very nice setting on beach. Pleasing pool setting. Good restaurant, very friendly and helpful staff. If management wanted […] higher rating, would need to remodel rooms with higher quality, newer finishes but then price would be much higher. Again, I liked staying there as is and would return.

the location is downright perfect and management must know that because the building needs some updates. most of the staff were very friendly but a couple were a bit standoffish.

We were able to check in early. Pools and area were very nice. Beach clean and great for walking. Restaurant and bar service was not that great but convenient. Great location !

When I first checked into the hotel first impression the lobby was it was close to the pics you see on line. My room was a suite but was nothing like the pics, Older and outdated. The pool area and beach were very nice. The first nights stay was terrible. The bed in my room was the hardest bed I've ever slept on, felt like the floor. The pull out bed […] felt like sleeping on springs. Was ready to check out the next day. This was room number 215. After complaining they moved me to another room (#105) which was very nice. Looked like the pics on line. Floor to ceiling windows and deck overlooking the pool. The rest of my week was great. This was the week of oct 31st and the hurricane made for some cancelations so was able to change rooms. Good luck on the room you get. Here is a picture of the bad room and of the pool. Read more

I booked this hotel last minute for a quick overnight trip with 3 16 year old girls, 2 visiting from Germany. I read a lot of reviews and wanted to make sure I was staying in a clean hotel, on the beach and appropriate for my guests who were most interested in seeing Ocean Dr. I selected this hotel as it had mostly good reviews. The raves about the […] staff were right on. This hotel is under renovations so it is a work in progress. We had the first room off the lobby so we dealt with early morning noise and workers preparing to install new TVs. Upon leaving and looking for breakfast i commented to my guests about the noise and a man followed us into the restaurant. He immediately offered to buy us breakfast on the house in response to my comment about the noise. It was the general manager, extending his courtesy for the inconvenience. Class act. And the breakfast was good. He explained the changes happening and assured us things were going in the right direction. The pools - plural - were gorgeous. There is beach access steps away. There is an up charge for the "nicer" chairs and cabanas, but 2 chairs and an umbrella come with your room. There is beach food service, but we did not partake so can't comment on that. I can recommend the Savoy and hope each time I go back it will get better and better. Keep it up Savoy, a resort on South Beach that is away enough from the noise of the "strip" but a block away from all of the fun. Read more

Nice beachfront locations and pleasant staff. Very clean and you can see that there were some updates. I booked a suite because I thought I would have to entertain business clients to show some new products, but after I checked in, I did not think the suite was nice enough or suitable for a business meeting.

The hotel was nice but old. the pictures are slightly deceiving and are way better then in real life. the shower was not updated at all. and we had notice blood on the sheets which grossed us out. i paid for 4 guests (they charged for 2 extra people in the room) and yet they didnt leave sheets for the pull out bed. i called for them and they didnt even […] make the bed up. you had to do it yourself. the view was of the pool and it was nice. the patio is a nice touch but overall i expected more for the money.

Was good for the few days I stayed. But I guess my room was missing a nice view. Had no balcony also.

Lovely setting with gorgeous tropical landscaping. The room was very nice with separate sitting area. Staff was helpful without any snobbishness. We only spent one night there but could have been happy there for a week. Many amenities from separate beach area, fishing pier, and swimming pools.

We had a nice stay in South Beach with two little boys who enjoyed the pool and beach access.

We first stayed in Hotel National, not a good place over priced and rooms not clean. We looked for another hotel and sure The Savoy on 5th Ave, the rate was good.

We haven't been told that there are daily leisure surcharges 2 days total $57 while we checked out. At the first when we check in, they said we get beach tower and 2 beach umbrellas and internet are all included. But apparently it is not at the end, will not so this hotel amymore.

Great hotel with great staff. Perfect location and not noisy. Suitable actually for everyone who is not looking for a party hotel. Friendly service and tasty breakfast. Rooms are modern and clean.

We were accomadated immediately upon arrival with a suite on the first floor.

I've been to South Beach four or five times and the Savoy Hotel gives you the biggest bang for your buck. Excellent bar/restaurant on site, beautiful pool (pool is about 20 feet away from the beach), hotel provides free beach chair, umbrella and towels. It is two blocks away from the string of night clubs and restaurants, a Walgreens, liquor stores, […] Starbucks.etc. Front dest man, Immer, was extremely helpful. Read more

Hotel was quiet and the grounds were well kept. I enjoyed the breakfast. However the service on the beach wasn't that good. Drinks were watery and the waiter kept getting our orders wrong. But overall I enjoyed my stay there. I would definetly go back.

Genuine Expedia guest review

The Savoy is the only hotel I will stay in on South Beach when I visit. This was my 2nd experience & ALWAYS a pleasure. Its right at the beginning of South Beach - Ocean Drive & a little more peaceful. It has two pools, excellent service, cleanliness, right on the beach, within walking distance of all of the hot spots; what more could you ask for.

Genuine Expedia guest review

Although it needs a bit of a facelift, we really enjoyed our stay at the Savoy. The giant room, 2 pools, and direct beach access made up for the need for updating. New mattresses would be a good thing, though.

Genuine Hotels.com guest review

We wanted to stay there. Our room had a beautiful view and the people were very hospitable. The local Cuban cuisine was everything we expected and more. We reccommend lunch at the La Playa market!

Genuine Hotels.com guest review

First room was so loud from other guests, building door banging all night, smoking area 3 feet outside our bedroom glass door and staff banging around at 6AM. We moved to a quieter room for the second night, it was much better but changing rooms was a hassle and the second had a view of the AC units. Hotel and pools need some TLC. Expedia says there […] is valet and self parking available, only valet parking contracted out to another company is available. We ended up self parking on a lot, not related to the hotel for $25 / day. Witnessed multiple complaints from guests that they had been waiting 30 plus minutes and the valet service had not brought the car. Hotel says the cars are parked 'a ways away'. One group was going on a fishing trip, had to take a taxi because the car didn't arrive in time, said they gave 45 minutes notice. The bright side, the staff is very nice and I do believe they try hard to please. The beach and beach access is nice. Read more

Everyone at the hotel was extremely friendly and helpful. We have been coming to South Beach for years, but this was the first time with our 1 1/2 year old, so I was looking for something a bit different than in years past.

Stayed at The Savoy Hotel for 3 nights and had a great experience. The suite we were in was much larger than I expected and had plenty of room for 4 people. The only downside to the room was that there were no cooking utensils or kitchen supplies but on request we were able to get silverware sent to the room. The two pools were a nice break from the […] beach and the staff was always friendly and willing to help when they could. Great perk that the beach chairs were free with the resort fee on the beach. The location was perfect as it was just a few blocks from the main stretch of restaurants/bars in South Beach but was far enough away that the noise wasn't a bother. Great trip! Read more

My boyfriend and I absolutely loved this hotel. The staff was friendly, especially Francisco. This hotel is located just a block away from the strip (restaurants, bars, eccentric people..etc...) We especially liked that we had the choice of either using their pool (they have two) or going onto the beach (which the hotel has direct access too). They […] also offer two chairs, an umbrella and towels for their hotel guests to use. We will definitely be using this hotel the next time we visit south beach. Read more

Location is excellent. Walking distance to everything Hotel staff was excellent! Service was excellent Rocky at the pool or beach is a valuable asset to The Savoy. The man worked harder than I have seen someone work in awhile. Always remembered our drinks and was quick and efficient with any needs we had. I would stay there again.

Genuine Expedia guest review

Lets put things into prospective, the Hotel Savoy isn't the Four Seasons, yet the prices aren't the Four Seasons either. A reasonably priced hotel for South Beach. Great location, decent rooms and facilities... the best being private access to the beach. We were very pleased by the quality vs. price comparision of their pool side food and drinks (although […] they need to add Worshires to their Blood Mary's)... and what the staff may lack in formal training, is made up for by their sincere effort and geniune desire to serve their guests. Bottomline, we greatly enjoyed our stay and would recommend it to anyone looking for a quite place for a little R&R on South Beach at a reasonable price. Read more

The hotel is updated and is nice for the money. The services aren't great but you are in a comfortable place with all the major amenities. The loccation is great for all the attractions and it is far enough from the party that you can relax. Beach access is great and close enough that you can still go back to your room easily without packing up all […] your stuff. Our room was in the secondary building and didn't have a view, but it is south beach so the only time you are in the room is to sleep. Overall great place for the money. Read more

Genuine Expedia guest review

The Savoy Hotel was very clean and in a terrific location. Walgreens, shopping, restaurants, cafes and the beach are right outside your door. Besides some children running through the hallways, we found the hotel to be a quiet retreat from the noise, excitement and heat. After walking all of South Beach, I am confident I made one of the best choices […] of where to stay for someone with a moderate budget. The room was incredibly spacious and the kitchenette was a valued feature. We did not have an ocean or pool view, and found that we did not miss it terribly. The grounds and pool area are very attractive. The staff were friendly but did not overly cater to your needs. Just ask if you need something and they will happily help you. The Savoy perfectly met our needs and I would definitely stay here again! Read more
