The Betsy South Beach is a gem with all the charm and splendor of a 5 star hotel. It is an older hotel, much like the others on this part of South Beach, but unlike other hotels, the service here is top notch. From Fritzner at the front desk, to Fritz the bell hop, to Ana the hostess at LT Steak & Seafood - the staff were all professional, warm and friendly. They made you feel so welcome! The rooms are adorned with books and artwork giving a feeling of being at home. The only drawbacks to this hotel were the air conditioning and size of the room. The air conditioning isn't very strong, so the room felt a bit humid, especially after using the shower, but was still comfortable at night when the outdoor temperature goes down. Next time, we will book two rooms for our family of four, so we could have more space. There are plenty of places to sit and relax at The Betsy. The library and adjacent hallway as well as the lounge/lobby have plenty of couches and comfortable chairs, not to mention outside with the many patios. The swimming pools are well taken care of as well as the gym. Water and towels are available at both pools. Bottled water is readily available to guests at the front desk or from housekeeping in your rooms. It is situated on the quieter part of Ocean Drive, but the beach, restaurants and shopping are all within walking distance. Will definitely stay here again on our next trip to Miami!
