This trip made our 4th visit to South Beach/Miami. We’ve stayed at The Winterhaven, Circa39, The Betsy, and now the Pelican. While our goal is to stay at most of the hotels along Ocean Drive, we’d definitely stay at the Pelican again. Here’s a good tip: be sure to check out the Better Business Bureau whenever you are looking at... more

Recently stayed at this beautifully restored hotel with a friend. From the moment we arrived the service was excellent. The restaurant food was very good and this hotel is perfectly located, close to he beach and all the action of ocean drive. I'd highly recommend this to any traveller and plan to stay here again when I return to Miami... more

Several days before we left home, Alexander called and asked if there was anything he could do in preparation for our arrival, reservations, directions, etc. He did make a dinner reservation for us and gave us good advice on rental car arrangements. The hotel was quite enjoyable, service was very good, the staff was very accomodation and helpful. Our room... more

Seeing as I work for an airline, I tend to travel quite frequently. After reading some of the reviews on The Pelican I figured I would check it out, and let me tell you, I'm very glad I did. I was checked in by Daniel at the front desk who is by far the nicest and most personable front desk... more

My wife and I travel a lot and I always wondered wether or not we can trust these reviews. Everyone's personal standards are different. We have traveled to Hawaii several times and just got back from a suite at a luxury Vegas hotel. We decided to take a couple days off work to relax in Miami and the Pelican looked... more

I highly recommend this hotel. The location is perfect, the front desk staff couldn't have been more accommodating, and dinner in the hotel restaurant was wonderful. We had only one night there but could have stayed a week. more

First time visit, and I would definitely stay there again. But, there are a couple of things I would have liked knowing up front. On the positive side: you get 2 free drinks at check in (martinis, mojitos, champagne, whatever you like), free bottled water in the fridge throughout your stay, and a complimentary specialty coffee for each guest each... more

This hotel was one of the most unique hotels that I had ever stayed in. My husband and I checked in on a Saturday night, and the pelican hotel was pretty happening, with lots of people enjoying the bar and lounge (which essentially is the lobby). We ate appetizers at the pelican bar al fresco (crabcakes to die for!) and... more

I have been staying at the Pelican twice a year for 6 years now, and there is no other place that I would stay in South Beach. The food, bar, and staff are all top notch! Espeically Raffa, who is by far the best bartender in Miami! I am looking forward to getting back there again soon! more

I am a Miami Beach native and I return about once per year to visit home. I have stayed in a large amount of Miami Beach hotels over the years and always look for the best deals. This was my first stay in The Pelican and I was immensely impressed. The staff was friendly and accommodating. We had 3 rooms... more
