Small rooms with even smaller bathrooms, the only upside to this hotel is it is one block back from the beach behined the Clevelander. The air conditioning was too noisy and had to be switched off so we could sleep. The staff were friendly and could not be faulted at all. It is quieter than the Clevelander as the party... More

The rooms are small but reasonable (we didn't spend much time there anyway). Here are some pros and cons: Cons: 1) The air con was loud and was dripping water inside the closet... More

This was my 3rd time staying at the Essex House and I love it. The Staff is amazing and helpful at all times. The rooms are comfortable the location is close to the beach and all the south beach entertainment but its not roudy or loud. You also get to enjoy all the ammenities from the Cleavlander.

Amazing location in the heart of everything. To start off, the staff in this hotel is awesome! From the time we stepped into the doorway of this hotel we were greeted by Jamel who was knowledgable and helpful and i might add remembered our names the entire weekend. We were then greeted by the manager, Carlos who was cordial and... More

This is a great location one block from South Beach. The sister hotel behind Essex House, The Cleavelander, is a bit crazy and guests at Essex House are able to use The Cleavelander's amenities - this is a nice perk. The staff is extremely friendly and welcoming. Although the bathrooms are a bit dated and our a/c unit was a... More

Excellent location for vacations if you like South Beach area life and to be close to the beach. Since I've spent 7 days there with my wife the main issue I had was related to the lack of space to storage all our cloths- Not having drawers and a tiny closet - In spite of this problem the hotel clerks...

Stayed here with a friend in November 2012. The hotel is in a very good location in Miami beach. We were greeted by Austin and Brad who were fantastic in helping us settle in and also answer any questions we had. The rooms were very spacious and clean. The beds were very comfortable. The hotel is linked with the Clevelander... More

My girlfriends and I were so happy with the Essex House! The hotel was so cute, very clean and the staff was so friendly! We loved the little details such as how they delivered a bottle of wine and chocolate covered oreos to our room one evening, had the free happy hour, and how the cleaning staff lined up all... More

I loved the location and the Zen Sai restaurant. J Jordan was one of the nicest hotel clerks that I have ever had the pleasure of meeting. He helped us with information about places to go , shop, and eat. The happy hour and complimentary breakfast were great. It was very clean and extremely quiet for the area we were... More
