My husband and I just returned from a few nights stay in Miami and chose the Dorchester for its location and price. The location is ideal, just one street back from the beach and walking distance to Ocean drive and Lincoln road. The staff were very helpful and accommodating, the lobby etc a bit dated and could do with a... More

Ok so I really LOVED the atmosphere here at this hotel-the decor in the lobby was beautiful, the hotel hallways towards the rooms were also very nice (I stayed in room #206). The hotel offers a great area to sit out & relax in the courtyard as well as well as a nice relaxing swinging gazebo (that was really cute).... More

The Dorchester is walking distance to so many great cafes, nightlife and the beach. Walking distance to both Lincoln Rd and South Beach. Also it has a great little bar...and is a very good value for families. Our unit had a cute little kitchen and plenty of sitting area.

The Dorchester was great. I had a problem when I landed and they handled it without saying a word. Ruben the GM and his staff were great. If you're in South Beach and you want a drama free, clean hotel, this place has the answer!
