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

We stayed at the Pelican last year and it was great. The staff are excellent, the themed rooms amazing and the food great too. If you want to stay at the heart of South Beach I cant recommend this place highly enough. Also if you like Diesel (the Pelican is owned by the Italian designer jean brand) then you will... more

The rain is heavy and unforgiving in Miami in the months of May and June, so during our stormy long weekend, it felt good to get off Ocean Drive and take refuge at the Pelican - the first hotel I've ever referred to in my travels as "home." I am pretty picky -- to an obsessive-compulsive extent -- about places... more

Spent 3 fantastic nights at The Pelican and could not have asked for more. No need to waste any extra cash on an ocean view room as all the rooms are unique and offer something special. Location could not be better and the staff are great, exceptionally helpful in planning excursions, recommending restaurants even put together a 2 day trip... more
