Reviews for The Betsy - South Beach
Chasing heritage
Staying at The Betsy Hotel was the highlight of our Miami Beach trip. The hotel is elegant, warm, and beautifully maintained, with that rare feeling of being both luxurious and genuinely welcoming. What truly made the experience exceptional was the concierge Paul, who went above and beyond. He wasn’t just helpful, he was dialed in. Every recommendation was spot-on, every detail handled smoothly, and he made us feel like we had an insider guiding our entire stay. Paul also connected us with an Art Deco walking tour with Damian, and I can confidently say it was the best tour we did in Miami. Damian is a phenomenal guide, charismatic, knowledgeable, and full of fascinating stories about architecture, hidden design symbols, Miami Beach history. It wasn’t just educational, it felt like stepping into a living time capsule. If you’re coming to Miami Beach and want an experience that feels elevated, authentic, and memorable, The Betsy is the place. Ask for Paul. And do not leave without taking Damian’s Art Deco tour.

10/10 dinner spot
We had a fantastic dinner! The filets are amazing and it was the best Caesar salad I’ve ever had. Ask for Aleks- he was a phenomenal server.

Lovely Lunch
Such a lovely fresh lunch in South Beqch where there is so much fried heavy food Joanna looked after us so well. Very informative about the menu and not pushy at all like so many other places. Water melon salad and coconut shrimp sushi were our choices and both were excellent. The complimentary bread (yorkshire pudding style) was a lovely change.

A beautiful boutique hotel in a perfect location
We have just spent 3 nights at The Betsy and loved every minute. All the staff are so welcoming and friendly especially George on the front desk, Gustavo at the pool bar and Mark the bell man. When you walk in the main door it gives Great Gatsby vibes and you could imagine Audrey Hepburn sitting at the bar sipping a cocktail or her favourite scotch. The rooms are beautifully decorated and you feel like you are a guest in someone’s home and not in a massive corporate hotel that adorn the beach further along. We enjoyed it so much we are returning in a few days for our final 3 nights of our American adventure. If you are really lucky you may also encounter the canine CEO, Betsy herself.

Pure class
Over on business this week in Florida, last night, so had a bit of free time so went for a stroll and ended up here. Beautiful place, wonderful staff and great atmosphere. Carmen made me the best Amaretto Sour I’ve ever had, and I’m gonna have a few more for sure before I leave 😁
