Reviews for The Betsy - South Beach
A gem in Miami South Beach
This is one of the best independent hotels we’ve had the pleasure to stay at. Ideally placed on South Beach, this is a fantastic boutique hotel. The food is superb, the staff amazing, especially our favourite Genevieve!! The rooms are stylish and the artwork second to none. We even got to meet Betsy herself! We would highly recommend you try the Betsy, it truly is a gem!!

Betsy Restaurant - Excellent!
Great dinner in South Beach!! Excellent location and dining room. Great vibe. Food was excellent; on of the best sushi rolls I've ever had. Has to be one of the best restaurants in all of South Beach. Jalene M. took great care of the four of us; a proper sever for a proper restaurant.

A Truly Exceptional South Beach Stay
I recently stayed at The Betsy in South Beach, and it was truly one of the best hotel experiences I’ve had in Miami. The location is unbeatable… right on Ocean Drive and just steps from the beach. Despite being in the heart of South Beach, the rooms were surprisingly quiet, exceptionally clean, comfortable, and beautifully maintained. What really sets The Betsy apart is the service. From the moment I arrived, I was welcomed with a glass of champagne, and my dog was greeted with treats, which immediately made us both feel at home. George at the front desk was incredibly warm, welcoming, and helpful throughout my stay. Darwin at the rooftop pool provided outstanding service and kept the drinks flowing with a smile. There was also another gentleman working the pool on Saturday who was fantastic, and I only wish I had gotten his name so I could recognize him as well. The rooftop pool is absolutely wonderful and offers a perfect place to relax and enjoy the South Beach atmosphere. The entire property has a classy, old-school Miami elegance that makes you feel like you’ve stepped into a different world. I’ve stayed at many hotels in Miami over the years, and The Betsy is, by far, my favorite. Everything from the atmosphere and location to the comfort and service, was exceptional. I will definitely be returning on my next visit to Miami. Jessica & Three
