Marriott Stanton South Beach

Reviewer: Not provided on Sun 16 May 2010 rated 8 out of 10.

A beautiful hotel on one of the world's most beautiful beaches. Staff was not as hospitable and service-oriented as I would have liked, but accommodations and bed were quite nice. We didn't overlook the ocean, but the city view was quite lovely at night and we could see our cruise ship from our room. Clean and comfortable. Overall, very nice stay.

Positives: The location is superb on a beach that is second to none. Room was very nice, clean and comfortable. Open areas and pool were beautiful.

Negatives: Didn't particularly like the attitude of some of the staff. They were rather rude.

hotel was nice, definitely appreciated the close proximity to the beach, it was a short walk to the shops off collins and ocean, would have liked to go to the pool, but if you don't lay out your towel to reserve your chair, good luck!

Positives: nice hotel, near beach

Negatives: walking distance from ocean dr.

The Hotel was all that it was portrayed. It was beautiful, near art deco south Beach. The consierge was a beautiful place with great food (my daughter is involved in environmental issues and loved that there was real silverware). The views, the bedding, everything was wonderful.

Positives: The beauty, cleanliness, wow, One of the Best hotels.

Negatives: Pool was really like salt water pool.

Marriott South Beach exceeded my expectations. Upgraded to ocean view room and given early check in & late check out at no additional cost. Location is perfect, away from the noise, but walking distance to plenty of restaurants & clubs. Waitress service on the beach & club music from the nearby Nikki Beach Club on Sundays. Would stay again.

Positives: Great location. Close to great clubs & restaurants.

Negatives: Pool and pool area are very small. Parking is $25.00 a day.

My husband and I loved this hotel! The staff was very friendly and the location was great! We had quick access to the beach which had a cabana set up for towel. Just don't eat or drink at the hotel. The service was so slow and the frozen drinks we ordered were undrinkable! It's better to eat out at the many wonderful restaraunts in South Beach.

Positives: Beautiful and modern, right on the beach, helpful hotel staff

Negatives: The restaraunt had horrible service and the bartender did seem to have much experience with frozen drinks.

This hotel was great! The rooms were spacious, the restaurant was great. The business center was free and the pool/lounge area was really nice. Everything about this hotel was great!!

Positives: Really high class, friendly staff. Great all around.

Negatives: A little too far off the main strip. But that also made the beach a little more private.

My family of 5 spent a week at the Marriott At South Beach. It was out-standing!. Hotel is clean and very fresh. Great service! Hotel is right on the beach, SOUTH BEACH! Pool is not huge, but is is nice. What I liked alot was the lounge beds they have, its a great place to lay around have some drinks and smoke a cigar. Food,Clubs,Shopping is all right there within walking distance. It was cool seeing several celebrities and models come and go from the hotel. You never know who will be in the elevator with you. Great Hotel!!!!

Positives: right on south beach!!, GREAT Food,Shopping,Clubs all within walking distance. Close to all the hard core parting, far enough away to relax

Negatives: room and pool were on the smallish side, but not tiny either,both were very nice.

Older hotel that had a nice face over. The rooms and beds were especially comfortable. The service was pretty good and the location was great. I think it was an incredible value

Positives: Close to the main strip but not right in the mix of everything.

Negatives: Problem with toilet flushing that they attempted to repair to no avail. A little of an inconvenience to flush 3 times on every use of the restroom.

Beautiful hotel right on the ocean in the heart of South Beach. Food and service were excellent!

Positives: Right on the beach -- Great food!

Negatives: Hoping for room with beach view--instead I had a very close view of a run-down hotel next door. Kept blinds closed so they couldn't see in.

We had lunch at the restaurant located on the ground floor. When my sandwich arrived the bread was moldy. I pointed this out to the waiter and changed my order. When we finished lunch we asked for the check and were told the entire meal was on the house. Didn't expect that! Class act. By the way the meal was excellent. Best mojitos yet.

Positives: great beach, beautiful ocean

Negatives: slow elevators
