The Breakers Palm Beach

The Breakers is simply wonderful. The building itself is imposing. The furnishing and décor fabulous and the service totally meets expectations. Wonderful opulent public rooms and tastefully stylish bedrooms. Located right on the beach with beautiful gardens and pool areas. Staying at The Breakers may appear pricey - however in my opinion it is well worth the cost.

We're at The Breakers in a business trip. We arrived very late last night. We were given a room on the far side of the hotel. Apparently there are special elevators you have to take to get to this floor. The reception person didn't tell us that. Or give us any info on the hotel at all. So after we tried one elevator that didn't get us there we spent 15 minutes wandering around looking for an elevator to bring us to our floor. (It's almost 1am at this point) We had to go back to the front desk to ask how to get there. She once again gave us vague directions. Finally we found the correct elevator bank. We get to our room and it's dark out after 1am at this point. But we can see a huge vent or air conditioning unit from our window. Sad to go the a beautiful hotel in Florida and see only a roof and vent out our window. This room 1132 should not be given to anyone (See picture, filthy window looking at a cigar butt on the dirty roof, disgusting.) I call down asking for another room and they tell me the hotel is at capacity but they will move us the next day. (Today) when I inquired at the desk an hour ago there was no record of the move in the system. We finally get them to give us another room and now we've been waiting 45 minutes for someone to come an move our things. I would not expect this type of service at this lovely hotel. (At a premium price). Very disappointing.

This property is indeed a landmark in Palm Beach, which is a landmark itself. The property is gorgeous, with elaborate yet tasteful decor and sits right on the ocean and right in the middle of Palm Beach, a world wide famed destination.

This was a fantastic resort. The rooms are decorated very elegantly and all the details were noted. The resort is filled with nice, friendly people. We stayed at the adults only pool most of the time, and the staff was great. They aim to dress your lounge chair for you, and not let you lift a finger. It's hard to sit back and be pampered for the go getters, but I must admit it was very nice. The property in general is quite substantial. The spa was heavenly and also had many details. The woman working was very sweet and respectful. We did a snorkeling trip, and it leaves right from the beach there - we had a blast. The location is so close to so much in Palm Beach - so taxi's are a great way to get around. It's also very convenient to the airport. The pricing is a bit high, but you get what you pay for in quality, so it's worth it.

Went here for the weekend and it was like a dream. This hotel is so historically beautiful, so much character, so charming and chic. Rooms are classic with a beach touch. Beds are very comfortable. Views to fall in love all over again. Common areas, elegant and sophisticated. Gardens for a cover of a magazine. Do I need to say more...
