I wanted a one night stay close to the shopping of South Beach. The room and bathroom were tiny but clean and thoughtfully decorated. The little touches made it welcoming. Our room was against an alley and there were no noises at night or in the morning. The extras like glass bottles of Evan, fresh berries, chocolates and nice bathroom amenities were all appreciated. I especially liked the fine quality of the linens and duvee. I will stay here again and recommend it.

We spent one night here and had a very lovely small room. The furnishings and decorative style were lovely and we were greeted with a small bowl of delicious fresh fruit and two Hershey kisses in a box. Presentation was very nice. Breakfast was served (a la carte) on the terrace which is right next to a very busy, noisy intersection. I had a hard time falling asleep with the loud voices, laughing and car noise coming through our closed window and air conditioner sound. The grounds are pretty and well maintained. We had a hard time unloading the car because the one space allowed was occupied by another car. I liked the history and the style of the hotel, but if I were to stay in the area again, I would look elsewhere.

Perfect location for the festival without the inflated rates. Every other hotel on the beach doubled or tripled their rates for this weekend except the Cadet. The Cadet Hotel is a Gem of a place. Stayed here 4 times in the past 4 years.

We booked this hotel for 2 nights after reading the reviews. We were given an upgrade and had a large, beautifully decorated room on the first floor. The hotel adds little touches - like a beach bag to carry towels. Breakfast on the porch was lovely, and reasonably priced. Internet is free. I would certainly recommend this hotel to others.
