“not especially expensive, but still not worth it, surrounding hotels are better”
Liked: walking distance to the beach, close to CVS and walgreens for convenience, walking distance to some restaurants
Disliked: was charged for extra things and they never even sent a receipt, received a surprise charge to my bank account, my booking was also cancelled because my flight was delayed despite that i informed the hotel i was going to check in due to a change in my flights, it took almost an hour to fix the cancellation and check in, the place is also dirty for a hotel with grime and mold in the shower, the tables weren’t cleaned in my room when i got in, the hotel AC also barely works, this place felt more like a 2.5 than a 3 star hotel

“Lovely location and cute place.”
Liked: Close to the beach and many attractions, very calm neighborhood yet close enough to nightlife for a good time. Cute hotel

“A perfect Miami Beach stay”
Liked: 10 stars. No question. Our stay at Balfour Miami Beach, a Registry Collection Hotel, was exactly what you hope for when you book a Miami escape. The hospitality team set the tone immediately, warm, attentive, and genuinely welcoming. Julie deserves a special mention. She went above and beyond to make sure my mom and I were comfortable from start to finish. Those thoughtful touches and kind check-ins made all the difference. The newly remodeled side strikes a perfect balance. Clean, modern design layered with that classic Miami Art Deco feel. It feels fresh without losing character. Location is spot on. Easy access to everything, yet calm enough to relax. The beach setup is seamless. You arrive, have a welcome drink, settle in, and the day just unfolds. If you want a short stay that feels easy, welcoming, affordable, and well cared for, this is it. Highly recommend.
Disliked: The only thing I didn’t realize before booking is that the hotel has two distinct sides; one more original Art Deco and one recently remodeled. It would have been helpful to know this in advance when choosing a room. (Shared pics from the older room of the bed & bathroom, remodeled room just the bed & space.
