Majestic Hotel South Beach

The elevator is completely outdated so if someone leaves the door open you have to go upstairs to bring the elevator to the first floor. Not recommended for people with limited mobility.

No internet. Elevator was shut down by 10.

Stay was decent with the exception of the shower flooding from a clogged drain and having to pay $$$ for valet service that I have to walk a block to and wait 45+ mins. Nice place and stay overall. Just note don’t come down during spring break at all

The staff was great! The food was great! It is not handicapped accessible, and the elevator is not reliable. It served the purpose for the cost. It was close to the beach. The bedding needs improvement.

Lift was not working & our room was near the door that everyone on the 1st floor used to come up onto the floor this door slammed shut so every time some one came through the door it slammed shut it woke out of my sleep a few time I woke with a headache. Also the safe in the room was not working so we had to have passports with us at all time. Blind to window also broken when we fist arrived.

No elevator 9 days had to walk 50 steep to 3 floor..dirty windows in rooms will never go there again charges us so much money for horror surface

Great Location, fine room. However, elevator works only occasionally, and safe deposit box in the room is not working.

Small. No pool. No laundry. Held an extra $150 upon arrival.

3 stars for Majestic. The pros: the location can’t be beat right on the beach walking distance to anything you could need. The room was clean and an affordable price for the night and they had an elevator for luggage which is rare in older buildings. The cons: a $36 “resort fee” for a hotel whose only amenity is offering beach towels seems really excessive. We didn’t even use parking. But I guess that’s the cost for the location but biggest con was the bed. It was the hardest most uncomfortable bed I’ve ever slept on. I could feel the support bars and every spring on the super thin mattress. I’m not exaggerating when I say I’ve had better sleep tent camping in a sleeping bag on the ground. I needed Tylenol in the morning. So maybe bring a mattress topper or just know that’s the trade off for the great location.

The elevator was not working during stay.

Highly don’t recommend staying here. When I first went into my room and went to the bathroom to start unpacking stuff I noticed the shower handle wasn’t on and it must’ve fell off when the previous guests stayed. Luckily someone was able to fix it. The second thing was that there were cockroaches in my room and I was mortified with how many I saw within the first 24 hours of my stay. Because I was there during the time of spring break, I was nervous about not being able to switch rooms but luckily the next morning the manager was able to switch me to another room and didn’t have a roach problem in there for the remainder of my stay. The shower pressure wasn’t working well in the new room during the day to the point where there wasn’t any water coming out at all. I have stayed here previously 2 years ago and found everything to be fine making me want to stay there again for this trip to Miami but next time I’ll be avoiding this place.

What i didn't like was that there were roaches in one of the rooms i purchased crawling all around at night and when i turned on the lights they were all in the bathroom shower etc.. and the service person did not discount the service.

There were roaches in my room. They would come out of the vents,

1. Dirty: mirrors, windows hadn’t been cleaned in weeks, room hadn’t been dusted either. I was able to draw a smiley face on top of the coffee maker. Hair on bathroom floor. Makes me question if they even cleaned the floors. Laziest house cleaning I’ve ever seen! Motel 6 was cleaner 2. Worst bed I’ve ever slept on 3. Loud until 3 am 4. Took 30 min to check in with no line/wait

This hotel needs major renovation. There were roaches everywhere. Very nasty. The beach location was the only good thing.

Hotel has roaches I stayed one night checked out in the morning.

Roaches, bathroom not clean, towels not clean stained , bed box neat case , mattress zero comfort.. Overall extremely disappointing and certainly no recommendations to others .. Also hidden fees !!! The Invoice and the money processed don t match the booking..

There was a resort charge with no resort amenities. No frig in the room. Roaches everywhere. Phone in room didn’t work. Bed hard as a rock

The room was very dirty and noisy had cockroaches in bed and room, would not recommend a stay here. Reception staff very very unfriendly and not very helpful

I wasn't satisfied with the bathroom in the room because I don't think they ever clean it. I found 💩 around the toilet and the towels were all torn and stained. Although the bed looked clean, the tables and mirrors were all dirty and dusty. And the valet parking guys scratched my car.

Our sheets had both sand and a fake eyelash in them, so we suspected that they hadn't been washed before our arrival. We weren't offered a discount when we showed them the eyelash. The rooms are TINY. Shower handle fell off if not handled very carefully. A lot of outside noise a night. The location is great, right across the street from the beach. Although Miami Beach had a ton of green algae so it wasn't a good beach. The location is in walking distance of many restaurants so that is a positive. This is a hotel for the party scene and not a family.

No internet. Elevator was shut down by 10.

If you’re looking for comfort, this place ain’t it. Beds are very uncomfortable, and rooms are small. On the bright side. We got a beach view room, and the view was nice! Other than that, you’re not getting anything fancy or comfortable. Beach was 3 mins away. Food down stairs was decent too.

The beds were terrible - but the location is great - the rooms are no good and need to be updated- you are paying for location only -

Very small room. No parking even though they charge resoort. Windows not clean so partial ocean view no so good. Bed very uncomfortable and hard. Great bathroom.

The location is great as the ocean is right across the street. However, the room is cramped and small, very noisy as we could hear music and bass all night, and the a/c barely worked. It was so hot in our room that we were drenched in sweat. The sheets were just placed on the bed, but they weren’t tucked. So, the sheets immediately slid off the rubber mattress, exposing it and the bed was as hard as a rock.

It was sold as a partial ocean view, which was a joke considering we could not see any ocean. The room’s floor felt dirty and the sheets and towels had stains on them. There was a warning card stating that the coffee maker and mug were not sanitized to state standards and only dish detergent was used. Our room was next to an emergency exit and alley so it was really noisy. The bed was not comfortable and we were given only three pillows that were flat. The free breakfast was limited to 3 selections with a choice of coffee or orange juice at the restaurant downstairs. We didn’t get a chance to go to the beach. It was in a great location.

This property is old, feels old, but interesting for the Art Deco style from the 40s. The rooms are spacious, but you can hear everything that goes on in the hallways. A couple of times I woke up when the neighbors went into their room, it sounded like they were coming into mine. There were also some revelers that came in around 2am that added to the noise. Our bed was very hard and on metal frames which didn't give much. The TV in our room didn't work (not that we watch much TV anyway). The staff is friendly and try to help, but most don't speak English or English is not necessarily their primary language (this is not a problem, just an observation. have translation apps available). The area around this hotel is very expensive as far as food is concerned, and has a very large and eclectic selection within walking distance. The elevator is quaint and has fun charm, but takes a bit to get used to. The best part of this hotel is the beach being right across the street. This makes this a great location if you love the beach. Our windows didn't look out on the beach and that would have been nice, but not a ding on the property.

Location was amazing! Across the street from the ocean and beach. The room is extremely dated, bead was rock hard, and very thin blankets. Breakfast was limited and made wrong.

Great location! Easy to walk to beach and around the area with plenty to do. Rooms are very small. Bathrooms are even smaller with no shelves or countertop to the sink, no toilet paper holder, touching the wall when you sit on toilet. Shower is an okay size. If you travel with girls who do makeup there is no spot to set up in front of any mirror. It does have the charm of an old building. I would definitely stay there again because of location and not much time is spent in room anyways.

The lady that checked us and was super rude. Every time we would ask the question she would check her nut head and roll her eyes. She also took a picture of my debit card and said she needed a copy of it. I asked why and she gave me her phone and told me to take a picture of the manager‘s contact and I did. I thought that was extremely strange because they had already ran my card for the parking and security depositso they had it on file. The room floor was sticky dirty towels were dirty pillowcases on the bed or dirty. We ended up checking out a whole day early due to service.

Overall, it's a great place to stay for what you pay. The location is top notch and the rooms are a decent size very clean. There is a restaurant within the building, therefore if you're on the first floor, it is LOUD until late into the night. There is no microwave or mini-fridge in the room which was unfortunate. The hotel does not hold your luggage if you arrive early or on your check-out date. Overall, 7/10.

Fabulous stay and the staff was incredibly thoughtful and helpful.

The Majestic has a great location. The restaurant has good food. But I had a big problem. I had paid $208.51. At the time of my check-in, the hotel system refused my card to pay the deposit. So I had to access my bank and told him I'm sorry I already paid this amount and the problem is here in the hotel system. All I wanted to do was change my clothes and go for a run 🏃‍➡️ after 2 hours the gentleman gave me the key. It was a very embarrassing situation. 🤨

The best thing about this hotel is the location. Front desk folk - no hello, no greeting not a crack of a smile. Ever. They are behind a glass and make no effort for you to hear them - knowing there is a bar and dining area in the same space. At check -in they ran my credit card and my friend’s with an annoyed “insufficient funds” response. Impossible, since we were both using credit cards. I phoned my company and they denied any transaction was sent their way so they couldn’t have declined anything. This is after the front desk gal took our full ID information and credit card details. Made us feel like something shady was happening. In the room, the best thing is that the AC worked well. The phone was non-functional and they could not tell us why or when it could be fixed. The tv picture wouldn’t show only sound. Had to call someone and they came right away to fix it. Beds were fine, not comfortable and not uncomfortable. Room is aged for it’s time as expected but doesn’t mean some upgrades can’t be made like furniture and fixtures. But again, the location is prime. We asked about the 2 breakfasts per room service but were given a flat NO. Not sure how other guests managed that. Elevator is old and you have to figure it out on your own because no one will bother to explain. Rate was great for the location.

People are so nice and helpful. A really fun vibe here.

The lady at the front desk was so rude as I traveled from Philadelphia to Miami. She did not even want to answer any questions or help me with my reservation check in, I ended up canceling and going to colony hotel, which was the best decision because I had a great time. I received a bottle of free champagne because it was my spouse 40th birthday staff was wonderful. Everything was great. Glad I made the switch.

Got there at 1 o’clock with one small duffel bag, told me I could not check in until four and she did not have room to hold my bag because she had a bunch of other bags. Came back at four to check in and there was only one lady checking people in and about 10 people in line. Took over an hour to check in. She was not very friendly. The restaurant was super busy and it felt like hotel. Guest were in the way of the restaurant staff trying to serve their customers. Other hotel staff never spoke or smiled or anything. She was not at all friendly until I checked out this morning , also had to park a block and a half away and carry luggage

Nelson was extra-fun and helpful at check-in and throughout our stay. Hotel was clean, comfortable, and pleasant! Maid service was good. Superb location. Valet parking worked seamlessly. Two thumbs up.

While the hotel's location is convenient and situated in an enjoyable area, the overall experience was highly disappointing. The staff were unprofessional, unhelpful, and, at times, even rude and aggressive. They charged additional fees for services that were never provided. Basic amenities such as air conditioning and a remote control for the TV were missing, and there was no courtesy service to store luggage after checkout. The condition of the room was unacceptable—dirty, outdated, and in poor shape, completely failing to match the advertised photos. There are plenty of better options just a short distance away from this hotel. Avoid staying here at all costs!

Great location. The beach is just across ocean drive. Lots of great restaurants and South Beach night life.

Great location with beach view.

Prime location spot on Miami South Beach along Ocean Drive. With location and view of the ocean means you also are subject to the noise and environment that it also brings. Thankfully, everything pretty much settled down around midnight but started back up at five in the morning while the city prepares for their guests the next day. Building is art deco probably 100 years old I’m guessing and updates have been done, but there is definitely a funk smell that reminds me of a school gymnasium and a little bit of urine that you just can’t get out of the room. They have an air purifier on the wall and once you’re in there for about a half hour you don’t smell it. You only smell it every time you come and go. If you want a great view And location to the beach and the culture of South Beach, this is a wonderful place to stay and much more affordable than a lot of places along the way. Due to the age of the air conditioning unit, I was pretty much woken up every 3 to 5 minutes as it’s cycled. I’m not a light sleeper or a heavy sleeper so unless you drink a lot, and there’s a lot of alcohol available in the area, you may not sleep so well. I think if you’re a block off, you’re away from a lot of that Distraction. There is a huge amount of cultural food options, which is wonderful. Basically, after once you valet park your car, which I have no idea where it went and they wouldn’t tell us where it goes since they didn’t have an attached parking area. You just walk everywhere.

Great location across the street from South Beach, restaurants and all the attractions. Staff were friendly and helpful. Free breakfast is a great bonus. Good value

Great location on South Beach. Room was quiet considering we were above a bar/ restaurant.

3 stars for Majestic. The pros: the location can’t be beat right on the beach walking distance to anything you could need. The room was clean and an affordable price for the night and they had an elevator for luggage which is rare in older buildings. The cons: a $36 “resort fee” for a hotel whose only amenity is offering beach towels seems really excessive. We didn’t even use parking.

Great location, walkable to the beach, at the Ocean Drive St. close to a variety of restaurants, shops, also good price.

It's great location and very near to the beach.

Superb location.

We liked the location. We walked and didn’t need our car during our stay. Walking out to the beach for sunrise was wonderful.

Ate in restaurant few times delicious and reasonable. Walkable to beach and stores would stay again

Hot water did not work in shower....they provide breakfast with stay...and the waiter could not pour an extra cup of coffee without charging...the front desk service and attitude very poor

Great location, right in the middle of all the action. Restaurant food and drinks were yummy. Beds were a little too hard for us.

Great place! Great food!

property was very old, room very small. we were on 3rd floor and could hear the noises from the alley and first floors. the breakfast that was included was a joke. our partial ocean view was the wall of the building next door. there wasnt even a lobby to sit in

The property is located right on South Beach - just a couple of doors down from the Scarface Hotel (Colony Hotel). Room was clean and worked great for us - bathroom was small, and shower was narrow, but everything was adequate, and the price was right, considering the location. The on-site restaurant was great! Easy access to the beach for fabulous sunrises, and sunsets over the city.

Great location across the street from South Beach, restaurants and all the attractions. Staff were friendly and helpful. Free breakfast is a great bonus. Good value

On Ocean7 is a fantastic restaurant with fresh, delicious food.

Affordable ocean view hotel with access to beach, restaurants and shops. Our room was very spacious and had a wonderful view. Staff wasn’t the friendliest and the breakfast voucher system was complicated and mediocre, but other than that it was a great way to enjoy South Beach.

Breakfast is an added plus. Although the choice is limited.. the breakfast options were good. Also the price of breakfast through the restaurant.. On the Ocean.. is very affordable
