Nice hotel but expect hidden fees that can add up to hundreds of dollars. Why they do this I will never understand.

The hotel has nice facilities and has excellent location on Ocean Drive, close to the beach. The staff is friendly and professional.

I purchased a 9 night stay using expedia.com. The purchase was made in full according to expedia. When I arrived at the front desk I was requested to sign a voucher agreeing to additional charges, up to $162 more. Of course there was no way to get another hotel or get my money back. Many apologies where given by the staff but this is the same as stealing your money. They told me that all Ocean Drive hotels did the same, so they did it. They call this extra charges, "spoiled and pampered". Which is nothing more than a European breakfast and a happy hour. Either you want them or not, you must pay 18 dlls extra a night.

Word of advise, if you pay all in advance, be warned that you still have some more to pay.

we stayed in this hotel for four nights in january 2013 and we were not disappointed. The room was lovely and very spacious. It is located on ocean drive and just across the road from the beach. The staff were all very friendly and helpful. Happy hour was great and for an hour on the roof terrace you were offered a compliment of beer , wine and soft drinks. we loved it!!

I am in the restaurant business and believe in service. All the employees were perfect and very caring. The rooms were great and very clean. From the front desk to housekeeping everybody was always happy and willing to assist. I spent four nights there, now I want to go back and spend a month there. The location is great and the views are better. Don't be fooled by the big name hotels, this is the place. Enjoy your same.

We picked this hotel because we wanted to be by the beach and where all the action is in South Beach. We were not disappointed. The staff at the Edgewater was very helpful in anything we might have needed - restaurant suggestions, sights to see. We enjoyed out happy hour on the roof top terrace along with the continental breakfast on the terrace in the morning. We were within steps of all the lovely Art Deco hotels along the beach right on Ocean Ave. It was perfect site for a morning stroll or to check out the evening action. Our room far exceeded our expectations. It was large, well appointed and very comfortable. I would stay here again if I came back to South Beach.
