Trip Type: Special Event Review 3 of 151Depends on what you're looking for
This hotel is a great deal for the price. You get what in essence is an apartment with a full kitchen area. The gym is well-rounded with machines and free weights. The negatives were as follows: 1) Valet parking was mandatory for non-residents (they have renters living there). I like being able to come and go without waiting for my car and constantly having to tip people. 2) Location: The hotel is in the business district, so there is very little night life nearby (i.e., in walking distance). 3) business center: It is small and you do not have a printer, although the staff will print your boarding pass, etc.

Trip Type: With Friends Review 4 of 151Great Condo
This was a great place to stay. There was breath taking beautiful views of the ocean and the city. Probably the cheapest valet parking in Miami at $20 per day. A comfortable place to do lenghty or short stays, with a washer and dryer and a nice kitchen. Short walk to downtown Miami. The neighborhood is great for scenery and jogging.

Trip Type: Overnight Stay Review 5 of 151Pleasantly surprised...
We got such an amazing rate that I was a little worried about what we were getting into. We were going on a cruise and only needed to stay one night before and after the cruise. When we got there, we were shocked! It is actually a building of condos, which I think, are privately owned. The building and lobby is very nice. The staff was VERY helpful. When we got into our room, we were so surprised that instead of the rinky-dink room we were expecting, we got a condo!! Full kitchen, living & dining room, large bathroom, bedroom and even a washer and dryer. The first night we decided to do laundry, but the dryer wouldn't actually dry our clothes. We had to take a garbage bag of damp clothes onto the ship. The other night we stayed in a different unit, and it worked just fine. My only complaint about our experience was the cleanliness. Most things were clean. The bedroom closets were REALLY dusty (both units) and there were lots of hairs in the dryers. That was gross. Having to clean people's hairs. The dryer also left rust stains on two of my white items. OVERALL, for the money and the amount of space you get, we were very impressed with the Fortune House.

Trip Type: Business Review 8 of 151Big room for the money
Despite the strange name, the hotel was very nice. The room was huge! Much bigger than expected. It was more like an apartment. Pool and gym were awesome. Only downside was the internet was only on the first floor and no free breakfast.

Trip Type: Business Review 9 of 151Location.........that's about it.
If you need to be in downtown Miami,this is a good spot for the money. After that it's all down hill. Missing smoke detector, no lock on outside door, bizarre room layout- you had to sit sideways on the second hand store couch to watch the only TV. and no coffee pot at all, let alone coffee and filters.

Trip Type: With Friends Review 11 of 151Wonderfull Stay
The Fortune House is a wonderfull hotel to book your stay. All the staff I came across were friendly and the room I booked was big and had a wonderfull view. The gym is up to date, the pool was clean. I stayed over the weekend and enjoyed every bit of it. They even said I can do a late check out, as long as I do it before 2:30, which was very good.

Trip Type: Overnight Stay Review 15 of 151Pictures are deceiving
stained carpet, outdated linen, tiles and appliances, tub floor was dirty, room was not ready upon arrival had to wait another 15 mins to get another room (needed approval from manager to give another room). Located in financial district (great for business trips, but not the quality). I was told I owed money for the valet parking when we didn't even have a car (settled, incorrectly charged to wrong room). Only pro to this hotel was the beautiful view from our room (obviously the other side is not a view at all, i think it was a view of a garage?) Definitely need a car, we did not rent one, though it is a 2 minute walk to the local metro (which was also ghetto). The hotel is also located a few blocks from the ghettos (the taxi took us thru the ghettos to get to the hotel).
