stayed here 3 nights in May 2013. great location but reception staff and concierge were poor - most of the time no-one at concierge desk and reception manager couldn't be bothered to help! over-charged in restaurant and billed for drinks when we hadn't even been in the hotel bar. (A spirit and mixer cost the equivalent of 10 pounds per... More

Great location, cool art deco style in this medium size hotel, not as noisy as you'd expect in Ocean Blvd (though book a room as far possible from the elevator). Reasonable parking opportunity in nearby public parking lot (and valet parking is not obligatory). Breakfast is small portion but tasty and you get to have it on Ocean Blvd frontside,... More

Fabulous Hotel right in the middle of ocean Drive. Loved the location and the ambiance. The room was more than adequate for our needs and our only regret was that we only had one night here on our US holiday. The desk staff gave us helpful advice and directions so that we could try local food at a Cuban diner... More

Sorry I haven't written this sooner, we stayed here between 16th and 24th April. When we first decided to holiday in Miami, I looked at various hotels then looked them up on here. I liked the fact that there were a lot of people who had stayed here several times and very few negative comments, so we went ahead and... More

I just stayed this past weekend at the Park Central Hotel and wanted to put in my two cents on the experience. We are avid travellers and I had a last minute opportunity to spend the weekend in South Beach with my husband before he started a business trip. Anway, we had slim pickings regarding reasonably priced hotels as it... More

We loved our stay at the Park Central. The location was perfect, and we fully utilized the complimentary beach chairs, pool, and roof top deck. I'd lived in an Art Deco building for five years, so I wasn't expecting a completely modernized hotel. The bathroom was original, but the added shelves and medicine cabinet made it function fine. We lucked... More

This was my first time in South Beach, Florida. I chose this hotel based on a friends (ex Florida resident and pro photographer) recommendation. I typically stay in upper end, modern hotels. The rooms are nice, however, the bathrooms are really old school. Free standing sink and a couple of glass shelves for your toiletries. Shower had good water pressure,... More
