In a time where quality of customer service is rapidly deteriorating, it was truly a pleasure to stay at this hotel and receive exceptional customer service. Jorge and Ana were extremely professional and helpful at all times during our stay. Their five diamond customer service is the reason why I will stay at the Avalon Hotel each time I return... More

It's located opposite the beach and in a very busy area of Ocean Drive. Upon arrival, the staff are very friendly and made us well aware of all the info on the hotel. The beds were extremely comfortable and the room was small but nice. The wifi depended on what side of the room you were on which was a... More

I would recommend this hotel to anyone who wants to spend a few nights in crazy South Beach. The location is perfect. Right on Ocean Drive, just a short walk to the beach and to shopping. I rate this hotel as a good value not because of the actual property but because of the amazing staff. Just the best, most... More

This hotel is perfectly located, staff friendly and helpful, special mention for George, Ruben and Ana for their exceptional service. Rooms comfortable and cool. The only negative I would say would be the hairs in the bathroom that where there when we arrived and still there when we left. Ocean Drive very expensive for food and drink, in fact for... More

Just came back from South Beach Miami and had to take the time to comment on our stay at the Avalon hotel. This was not our first and will not be our last stay at this hotel.

Pros: very friendly front desk staff, amazing location (on Ocean Drive, in the middle of everything), comfortable beds, and a well kept property. Cons: the price was almost $250 per night (for some reason, all hotels in South Beach were crazy expensive, for the first weekend of April), worn furnishings, and a small room. Aside from the price, this hotel... More

Booked this place on hotel tonight so got a bit of a discount on room. Excellent location on South Beach. Only stayed one night. Thoroughly enjoyed dinner at their restaurant A Fish Called Avalon. However, room was basic, clean, very small. Drinks at hotel bar very expensive. Two rounds of drinks for party of 4 totaled over $100. Parking valet... More

We spent one night here on our way to Cuba. The place is excellent: great location, nice rooms, excellent restaurant, helpful staff. It's close to, but in the middle of, all the loud bars up and down Ocean Avenue.

I will definitely be coming back to this hotel BECAUSE of he staff. Anna and George and Carlos (and others whose names I did not get) were so incredibly friendly and accommodating that I will definitely be back. Rooms were clean, beds comfortable and wonderful location right on Ocean Drive. Thanks for making our stay so great!! Bill
