Review summary

Based on recent reviews

The Waldorf Towers South Beach is frequently praised for its fantastic Ocean Drive location, directly across from the beach and within walking distance of nightlife and shops; plus, the hotel provides beach chairs. Guests appreciate the modern feel of the updated rooms, some of which offer ocean views, and the convenience of having the Icon restaurant and a mini-market attached. The downstairs restaurant can be noisy at times. Dining at partner restaurants, some guests point out, can be more affordable thanks to discounts.

great location nice staff dark decor poor lighting

The location proved excellent. the staff presented itself as very nice. Everything i needed was just steps away.

the decor struck me as excessively dark, coupled with poor lighting. the carpet was like it needed replacement several years prior.

central location ocean view onsite restaurant poor ac thin walls street noise

The location was really central, right where i wanted to be, and i could walk to everything. our room had a view of the ocean and the bed was really comfy, i slept so well. i really liked that there was a restaurant right there, nextdoor. It made things easy.

The ac in our room didn't work very well, it was hard to get the temperature right, and i was too warm. the walls seemed thin. i could hear a lot of noise from outside, difficult to relax. The street noise was constant.
