    Overview

    Vintage-luxe hotel with rooftop spa, across from South Beach

    Across from the beach
    Miami's famous South Beach lies just footsteps from the door of this historic beachfront hotel. Located in the heart of the Art Deco District, The Betsy puts you within a few blocks of the Art Deco Welcome Center and about a mile from the Bass Museum of Art.

    Artsy shops await
    You can stroll out your door to linger at nearby fashion boutiques or travel half a mile to the Lincoln Road Mall for brands like Lacoste. Outdoor enthusiasts can swing for the greens at Miami Beach Golf Club, 2 miles away, or stay on site for the intimate courtyard pool.

    Rooftop amenities
    Pampering is the byword at the rooftop Wellness Garden and Spa, which has incredible views of the Atlantic. For dinner, you can savor a perfectly cooked steak at onsite BLT Steak, a guest favorite. And the speakeasy-style B Bar could be the coolest place in town.

    Luxe linens, free WiFi
    After a day at the beach, you'll find modern and indulgent guestrooms with Frette bed linens and marble bathrooms with built-in flat-screen TVs. Minibars are handy for an afternoon pick-me-up or a nightcap while you check your email with free WiFi.

    A short guide to South Beach

    With high-rises towering over white-sand beaches, South Beach, which is to the east of Miami Beach, is a town of luxury and leisure. With some of the warmest weather in the world, visitors can enjoy days by the ocean and take breaks to shop for designer goods and dine on Latin and globally influenced cuisine. At dusk, the city comes alive with one of the biggest nightlife scenes in the county.

    Overpriced. I am biased, because I am used to being spoiled when I travel. I like to be treated politely and with great customer service. My biggest complaint was the customer service. People were rude, and stared at my husband and I if we weren't dressed a certain way. We came in from the beach and someone stopped me to ask if we "belonged" to the […] hotel. The Betsy was small and eco friendly (not my thing). No shower door, no options to watch movies in the room, tiny room, hallways were hot, crappy pool. They did have books and games for rent and purchase (again, not my thing). The pool is enclosed by walls, so not the best space to get sun. Beach was close and was much better than going to the pool. The restaurant was good - BLT is recommended. Overall I would rate this hotel a 4 out of 10. I have never provided a rating before, but I felt strongly enough about this one to say something. I hope it is helpful to someone. Enjoy! Read more

    Response by The Betsy - South Beach Dear Traveler from St. Louis, Thank you (honestly) for taking the time to submit an online comment. For me, the saddest part about your comment was that you felt that we were un-welcoming. This is simply not the case, as our Guests range in all demographics to both extremes of affluence, culture, ethnicity, etc. We have a very diverse hotel -both in our staff and our Guests! I am so sorry that you felt this way, and would welcome the opportunity to make this up to you on a future visit. It really does matter. I notice that you didn't mention our glorious roof deck for sunning when the sun doesn't fall on the pool - actually, many people appreciate the privacy of our pool area for a quiet getaway from all of the excitement of Ocean Drive and South Beach. Aside from the Roof Deck, I am happy that you seemed pleased with our restuarant, BLT. The Betsy is intimate, but with no shortage of services - the rooftop spa, the library, the incredible dining opportunities, our Art Gallery. I regret that you did not get to experience what most of our Guests do while at the Betsy. We take our Guests and our service very seriously and very personally at the Betsy. I hope that you give us the chance to show you a more typical stay. Even if not, I remain at your service any time that you are visiting the Miami Beach area!

    At check in everything was wonderful, the hotel was beautiful. although the things that happen to my debit card were not as great. The hotel forgot to tell me that they charge my debit card a $100 a day for security purposes which was ok until i found out that they hold my money for a week and a half after i leave. Then come to find out upon checkout […] that they charge $30 a day to valet your car on top of the $100 a day. then i was charged for mini bar foods that were never eaten and they refused to credit me. In the end my bank account was charged almost $300 on top of the price of a 2 night stay which was very pricey. I was very upset that none of this was explained to me upon check in. if you do decide to stay at this hotel make sure you ask prior to check in what everything costs. Read more

    Das Betsie ist ein entzückendes Boutique Hotel- contra: etwas zu teuer und die Zimmer sind klein. Lage ist ok. Restaurant ist toll, aber auch eher teuer. Pool eher winzig, dafür gibt es eine schöne Dachterrasse - Top View mit Lounge Sesseln und Liegen .. alles in allem ein sehr charmantes Hotel und empfehlenswert, wenn kleine Zimmer nicht stören und […] es einen nicht stört, dass man nicht den besten Ausblick hat..gibt natürlich auch ocean view aber natuerlich nicht so toll, wie bei hotels an der Collins Ave Read more

    Hospedei-me pela segunda vez no THE BETSY, e gostei muito.Retornei, mas agora achei a limpeza muito mal feita.Limpeza é o principal item a considerar na minha escolha do hotel.Embaixo da cama parecia ter teia de aranha, as bordas dos abajures dos lados da cama tinham uma "coroa" de pó acumulado e atrás do vaso sanitário não deu para pegar um objeto […] meu que caiu pois estava sujo e com coisas que haviam caido ali e não foram retiradas, assim conclui-se que atrás do vaso a limpeza não chegou.
