“Excellent hotel but not luxury”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed March 15, 2013

I stayed at the Viceroy for a company event and after reading some of the previous reviews I have to say I was positively surprised by the service level.

I requested an early check-in and when I arrived at 9:00am the room was already available. Also requested a late check-out and got it very easily. Both processes were also quite quick.
Minor issues were that part of the food I ordered from room service was missing but was quickly brought and that when I requested a harder pillow I only got another one exactly as the ones I already had.

The weather didn't invite to use the swimming pool and didn't have enough time to go to the spa/gym but both looked good. Note: these facilities are not "in" the hotel and are shared with the residents of the apartments in the complex.

A breakfast buffet was arranged for the event which was quite convenient because the other only option was the breakfast menu, which although had variety, consisted of very big dishes and was not cheap.

Very close to Miami South Av where you have different restaurants and bars. And a taxi to Ocean Drive will cost you ca. USD20.

- Highlight: the Mercedes Benz Experience. First day, while we were looking for a taxi, the lady at the MB stand offered us a ride to Miami Beach and on our last day they offered to take us to the airport. Top marks.

The valet parking keeps being slow and disorganized.
The decoration is unusual, especially if you expect a business-type hotel.

All in all, a very good recommendable hotel but not 5 stars.

Dear Sebiel,

Thank you for your detailed review.

I am so glad that you were able to take advantage of our great partnership with Mercedes Benz a few times during your stay. This is one of the newer services that we have been trying out in response to all the many suggestions that we receive throughout the year.

How nice to hear that our housekeeping team was able to offer you both an early check in and a late check out: we have such demand that our high occupancy does not always allow us to offer this to all of our guests. The Kelley Wearstler designed guestrooms are definitely not common and we aim to provide a boutique stylish environment for everyone, even business travelers who should also have that choice in a downtown location, would you agree?

Our valet team has been hugely busy this month and I will review with them how we can continue to improve the flow of car delivery during high demand periods.

We look forward to the opportunity of welcoming you back maybe this summer, in time to try our new Eos menu!

Warm Regards,
Laurence Dubey

“Wish I could have stayed longer!”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed March 14, 2013

Just a quick overnight stay in between Ft. Myers to Turks & Caicos but this hotel is lovely! Found a great deal on Expedia while traveling across alligator alley & booked it. View was fabulous! Late-nite room service was delicious & the mini bar was well-stocked! Super friendly staff & comfy bed too! Did I mention the view?!?! Can't wait to come back! Thank u :)

Dear BeyondDallas,

Thank you for your kind words! I am so pleased that we made a strong impression on you in just 24 hours. You just have to make it a longer stop over next time you head off to the Caribbean and enjoy the day time views from our gigantic infinity pool on the 15th floor. If you are a Florida Resident, do visit our website and you will find that we have very competitive packages for the upcoming summer season: I promise that the minibar will still be well stocked with new fun products by then !

Warm Regards,

“Beautiful Rooms and Love the Illy coffee in rooms”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed March 14, 2013

This review is long overdue. I stayed at the Viceroy over a year ago on one of my many business trips to Miami. Loved the room, had the junior suite. The bathroom is awesome and they have an Illy espresso machine in the room, which was a huge plus. I used the gym which I thought was awesome, the time of year I was there it was too cold and windy to go in the pool, but it was super nice. The service was great. There are plenty of restaurants walking distance from the hotel. I wish I had time to use the spa, if I go to Miami again for business I'll definitely try the spa. This hotel is awesome for staying in Downtown Miami, I wouldn't stay anywhere else. I recall the service being excellent as well. I've stayed at numerous Miami hotels and this hotel and Loews South Beach are my favorite.

Dear worldtravelergirl29,

As the saying goes, “better late than never”. I personally do understand how time quickly gets away from you once you return from a business trip with all the follow up that you need to take care of first. I very much appreciate the fact that you are taking the time from your busy schedule to remember us and write us a glowing review!

You and I share the love of a good cup of espresso and I have an Illy machine in my office. When I travel on business, I often choose hotels when I have that option as it is part of what I get every day and it would not feel like home without it. I may have run into you at the gym which is spectacular: we just purchased new surfboards to add new fun and strengthening “surfset” fitness classes to our weekly offering. You should try that next time you visit; we are the only hotel in Miami to offer them at this time!

Welcome back soon!

“1st class all the way.”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed March 11, 2013

We arrived at the hotel mid morning after our cruise ship docked in Miami. We thought we would have to wait for our room, but they allowed us to check in right away. The staff was friendly and courteous. Check in was fast and the bellhop took our luggage to our room immediately. What a room! spacious, with a HUGE bathroom! Very clean, and the bed was very comfortable. Decor was unusual, modern with an Asian design. Lots of marble. All in all we really loved the place. It was a short walk to shopping areas and even shorter walk to the free monorail.

Room Tip: If you want a quiet room, get one that doesn't face the street. Traffic doesn't bother us, s...

Dear Southsask:

I am so glad that you enjoyed your stay at Viceroy Miami. It sounds like we got it right. Thank you for the comment on the rooms. They are very unique. That’s the way we like it here. Anyone can stay at a regular hotel but after coming off a cruise, it’s nice to have something a little different as you celebrate your last night away.

Please keep us in mind for your next cruise…and stay longer with here! There is so much Miami has to offer. .

Warm Regards,

“Nice, but far from SB!”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed March 11, 2013

We were at the hotel for 5 days and we really enjoyed our stay. Room is huge, decoration is as you see in photos, you may like it or not, but it is really well-cared and quite different. I loved having a coffee machine, which allowed us to have breakfast in room just buying something the night before. Bathroom was also huge with nice amenities, but shower temperature was impossible to keep warm. We had a balcony looking to brickwell, no good luck in that!
Pool is really nice and views are incredible.
The biggest drawback: whenever you want to go SB, cab costs $25 per way. Walking distance you can only go to 10th st area where you may find some restaurants and Bayside, little farther, but nicer.

Dear GGZ,

Thank you for your review. I’ve made a note of the water temperature challenge that you had. I’ll review that with my engineering team. Next time, try one of our water view rooms. For the slight increase in rate, you get a wonderful view of either Biscayne Bay or the Miami River. It’s a completely different perspective.

Good point on the taxi costs to South Beach. I’ve recently implemented complimentary Mercedes sedan service during season which includes drop-offs to that area. Traveling in style…one of our many great offers here at Viceroy Miami.

I hope to see you back here soon!

Warm Regards,
