THIS IS NOT A FOUR STAR HOTEL.... The staff here are excellent. They give you good advice and address your needs. Resort Fees are a scam however and I find them extremely tacky. Just include them in the price. When have you stayed at a Rosewood or Hyatt or Westin and paid a Fee at the end of your stay....... More

I was hesitant at first by some... More

This hotel is located in the middle of the action on Ocean Drive. It is very nicely decorated. The room is modern and large. The bathroom has a glassed-in shower with a rainfall showerhead. I booked at a decent price online. The pool area is also very nice. And you do get free beach chairs and towels, bikes and wifi... More

Stayed at Hotel Ocean 4/25/13 to 4/30/13. I was very impressed with the service and size of the room. ( had ocean front with balcony). For the price this hotel is a bargain as I have stayed elsewhere on Ocean drive and paid much more for much less. Janina (manager) is one of the nicest people I have ever met... More

My boyfriend and I stayed here for a weekend getaway. When your first walk in, the hotel lobby has a funny smell and by the other reviews I've seen in the past I didn't know what to expect.There was a mandatory resort fee but it includes free beach towels, beach chairs, free wifi(which worked in the room),bikes, and breakfast.

Let me start by saying the rooms are nice, but we have room 200 which has a beautiful view of the beach, but there is a band that plays in the courtyard and I swear it felt like we are in a Ben Stiller movie it sounds like the band is in bed with you. They stop playing at midnight... More

Rooms ok, needs some TLC. If you want a quiet retreat, this isn't it. Being your ear plugs. It's situated right in the middle of all of the might clubs. Continental breakfast not very special. But the beds and bedding are outstanding.
