“Hidden Gem”

Reviewed June 10, 2013

Found this great little boutique hotel on-line and so glad we did! We had a layover in Miami travelling home to Toronto from Peru and thought we should explore Miami for a couple of days. The flight arrived early in the morning and the room we booked wasn't ready so we were offered a suite (Room 208) for $60 a... More

Our Suites are indeed located in a very quiet area on the 2nd and last floor and even though we don't have an elevator, we hope the comfort and intimacy of the Suite made it worth... More

Being helpful yet non-intrusive is not an easy task and we try our very best to make our guests feel so comfortable that they forget they are in a hotel, while being always aware that when they need it, our entire team is here ready to help! Thanks for pointing it out this is greatly appreciated! More

“Great hotel!”

Reviewed June 6, 2013 via mobile

My stay at the Impala Hotel was excellent. The most amazing thing of this hotel was the quiet and silent room, despite the noise of Collins Avenue. I used to wake up with birds singing... The hotel was also very clean and the staff, ready to help you.

Waking up to the sound of birds singing is something amazing especially on Collins avenue and I am delighted that you were able to experience this great feeling in our hotel! Thank you for the kind words, they are very much appreciated! More

“An Opportunity to Experience Miami Beach Wildlife!”

Reviewed May 28, 2013

My wife and I stayed here while I attended to business in Miami. The location was a bit challenging for the cab driver to find because the street footprint of the hotel is not very wide, but the address proved to be correct and we arrived early on a Saturday afternoon. Check in was seemless and the room spacious and... More

Thank you for taking the time to post such a detailed review. I am glad to read that despite some inconvenience, you will stay with us again! I am terribly sorry about the Internet and that it took so long to get fixed! we will definitely not let this happen again! Regarding the guest passes to the gym, indeed we... More

“Very nice boutique hotel”

Reviewed May 25, 2013

We stayed in this hotel for one night. My family had a total of three rooms and one was a suite. All the rooms were very clean and nicely decorated. Our bed was very comfy and even though our queen room was not large, we had enough space. The bathroom was beautiful with plenty of counter space and a luxurious... More

“Quiet Hotel with Excellent Staff”

Reviewed May 20, 2013

Impala Hotel is excellent in all categories! My wife and I moved from a hotel located on Ocean Drive to get away from the loud music and beach front traffic noise. Walking into the lobby, we were greeted with the super nice staff and offered two rooms at a discount! This was a kind gesture considering we just 'walked' in... More

Even though we were sorry to know that you had a bad experience at another hotel, we were delighted not only to have you in our home, but to be able to make up for a bad start of your vacations! We appreciate your comments, thank you so much for sharing your experience and please come back to see us... More

“Quiet location in the centre of South Beach”

Reviewed May 18, 2013

We stayed here for a week at the end of April. South Beach is a great destination and the Impala is well situated in the centre of things. This small hotel is one block from the boardwalk and the restaurants on Ocean Drive. The staff are uniformly friendly and attentive and go above and beyond for guests.

Thank you very much for your kind words! We are indeed centrally located but hope we manage to stay a quiet place in the middle of the chaos where you can rest when the city becomes too overwhelming! As for the staff, the team at the Impala is my greatest pride and I am very happy every time I read... More

“Great room and location”

Reviewed May 14, 2013

Quiet spot just a few minutes walk away from the beach and Ocean Drive. Good bedroom and large bathroom with a large shower. My only complaint was that early in the morning we were woken by the maids talking loudly outside the room, apart from that it was a great stay. Would happily stay there again.

I appreciate your comments and have already addressed our housekeeping staff about this issue. Thank you for helping us improve and for still giving us a very positive rating despite this unpleasant experience! More

“Terrific Alternative”

Reviewed May 7, 2013

Hotel Impala is one block off Ocean Drive, smack in the middle of the most travelled bits of South Beach. The rooms are comfortable and the bathrooms very, very nicely done. The attached restaurant, Spigo, is outstanding. Much more preferable than staying right on the strip, unless you intend to get no sleep at all. Very helpful and friendly staff.... More

Thank you for this great review and the compliments about our staff! Just for your information, only one of our rooms has a balcony and that is our Master Suite. It overlooks Collins avenue and is simply beautiful! What I think you are referring to is our outside corridor leading to the Suites. Even though they do not have their... More
