Reviews for The Betsy - South Beach
Return Stay at Betsy was Superb
The Betsy South Beach is my go-to hotel whenever I travel to Miami Beach. It's immaculate, has superior service, spacious guestrooms with comfortable beds and high-end dining. It's perfectly situated for beach lovers. All one has to do is walk across Ocean Drive and continue for a few yards. Culturally, the Betsy has it going on with nightly live jazz, art exhibitions, books and a massive collection of black and white photos of the Beetles. That is just some of what captures my attention when I freely explore the various floors and lobby of the Betsy, because that is what I like. One can find his own niche at the Betsy, even if it is sitting in one of those comfy chairs near the bar in the lobby, or going upstairs to take a nap in the library. During my first stay at the Betsy a few years ago, I was with the Florida Trust for Historic Preservation and I didnt spend much time at the hotel. We were in Miami Beach to tour the Art Deco District and tours and dining engagements filled my itinerary. My schedule was more relaxed this month when I returned to the Betsy for a second time. I rarely dine at hotels vhen I travel, but during my stay, I had room service to deliver breakfast my first day, and on another, I had lunch downstairs in the LT Steak & Seafood restaurant. I enjoyed the food and ambience so much that I returned the next morning for breakfast. It was no surprise that I had an exceptional experience. Michelin star winning Chef Laurent Tourondel is at the restaurant's helm. Familiarity with the hotel and its staff played a huge role in my superb repeat visit to the Betsy. I was thrilled to see Fritz and Juan greeting guests and helping with luggage. Both gentlemen helped me during my first stay, and both helped me again during my second stay. The Betsy is such a haven for me. It fits my style and embraces my interests. I will always look forward to returning to the Betsy.

Carmen was the best bartender I have ever met. I have been to 30 countries and 80 cities. The drinks and personality are the best. We will stay at this hotel from now on because of her.
