Esmé Miami Beach

"For starters, other reviews have been very correct, this a beautiful hotel with a great ambience and even better location. The front desk and staff have also been very friendly. However, the small issues continue to stack up and I can agree with a lot of the complaints I've read here. First, we have not received a cleaning service yet. By the time 4:30PM rolled around, our room was not cleaned until we had to reject the service when our door was knocked on at 4:45PM. Much too late to have a room cleaned during the countless hours of daytime available. Next, we have found coffee stains (hopefully) on the pillow cases and the robes that were offered. Although, the robes didn't come with the waist ties and also had stains on them...small thing, but for price of stay, you hope to see everything properly prepped. On top of this, the main light attached to the ceiling fan flickers on and off without turning it on... but also flickered on and off while on. Finally, the owner who answers all these reviews says they've made necessary changes to the more negative reviews.... I just haven't seen them made yet. Staying at Esmé feels like the ups and downs of a Rollercoaster that you just want to be great, but overall just doesn't live up to expectations. For the price it costs to stay and 4 star status, we just expect more from the place and don't really recommend."

"Stayed here a few times and love it very much! Location is perfect and it really feels like a boutique hotel. Only point of critique for me would be the lacking service of providing specifications of a bill that I didn’t recognize while checking out. I paid and was suppose to receive an email with the exact specifications. I then had to email twice to receive the same bill again. After that I never got a reply anymore. If the service was a bit better after the stay it would make me want to come back for a third stay a bit more."

"Nothing but positives to say! We had change in travel plans and the front desk gentleman was beyond kind and helpful to help us update our reservation at the very last minute. We checked in a few hours early the following day expecting to just have our bags held so we could explore, but Victor at the front desk found us a comparable room to what we booked and got us set up immediately. To top it off, we were greeted in our room with a bottle of Prosecco after arriving back from the beach. Complementary beach chairs and towels, a nice lounge and pool area on the 3rd floor, and the location is right in the heart of South Beach. Restaurants, shops, the beach are all right out the door. The decor and vibe is vintage Miami to the core."

"Our recent stay at this hotel was a perfect getaway. The location was ideal, and the room size was just right for a couple—intimate yet comfortable. The exceptional cleanliness and attentive service further elevated the experience. The added bonus was the great toiletries provided, adding a touch of luxury to our stay. Combine all this with excellent prices, and this hotel becomes a fantastic choice for couples seeking a perfect blend of comfort, affordability, and thoughtful amenities. Highly recommended for a memorable and well-rounded stay."

"I recently had the pleasure of staying at the Esme Hotel in Miami, and I am compelled to share my exceptional experience, particularly highlighting the outstanding service provided by Lisa during the check-in process. From the moment my flight landed early at 8 am, I knew I was in for a unique experience. I arrived at the hotel around 9:45 am, fully aware that the rooms might not be ready yet. Traveling with a colleague who also arrived ahead of schedule, we were pleasantly surprised by Lisa's warm welcome and extreme accommodation. Lisa's professionalism and friendliness stood out as she went above and beyond to ensure our comfort. Despite the early hour, she managed to secure rooms for both my co-worker and me by 11:45 am. Her efficiency and dedication truly made our day and set the tone for an amazing stay. The Esme Hotel itself is a hidden gem in the heart of South Beach. The speakeasy is a delightful surprise, and the rooftop bar, though underrated, offers breathtaking views. The convenience of being able to walk anywhere in South Beach added to the overall appeal of the hotel. Moreover, the variety of food options right outside the hotel's front door was a pleasant discovery, making our dining experiences both diverse and enjoyable. In summary, the Esme Hotel exceeded my expectations, thanks in no small part to Lisa's exceptional service. Her commitment to ensuring a seamless check-in process and her friendly demeanor significantly contributed to our overall satisfaction. I wholeheartedly recommend the Esme Hotel to anyone seeking a memorable stay in Miami. Thank you, Esme Hotel, and a special thank you to Lisa for making our visit truly exceptional!"
