Hotel has views of the beach, and is a great location. Only drawback- tiny rooms. Very clean but tiny. And the bathroom could have been a little cleaner. I didnt find it noisy at all. The rooms at the back are very quiet, and even with the ones in the front, only if you leave the windows open, you may... More

I must say I had a great time.. Between Harold keeping us entertained during the day and the oh so helpful over night guys who were so kind to keep unlocking our room keys.. I quite enjoyed my self. I have stayed her before a few years back and thought why not again. Well I'm glad. The food was great.... More

I almost cancelled my reservation after I read the reviews, but i´m glad I didn´t...people don´t realize South Beach Hotels are boutique properties constructed during the 1930’s...The Colony is RIGHT on the action. The staff is multilingual and very accommodating and the rooms are clean comfortable and safe. We had a great time and looking forward to returning to the... More

Nothing wrong with this hotel. We booked through points, and when we arrived the hotel had not received our reservation . The front desk guy was very helpful and patient while we tried to see what had happened. We were able to resolve the issue, and were upgraded to a Queen room at the back of the hotel. If you... More

Rooms are very modern and clean. You can't see South Beach in tv or in a movie and NOT see this hotel in bright blue neon lights. Perfect location. The drinks are a little pricey but it is South Beach and its on Ocean Drive in the middle of it all.

I stayed at the colony on my first trip to Miami. Generally I was very pleased with the service. The location is amazing-the hotel is right across the street from the beach and in the heart of south beach. Everything is in walking distance. The hotel staff was very pleasant,helpful, and upbeat. Harold at the colony took care of me.... More

I knew I wasn't getting a five star hotel when I booked one night at the Colony for $118 a night. But the photos they use on the website are of only a couple of rooms at the front of the hotel. The rest of the rooms, apparently, have a view of the alley. The room itself wasn't too bad,... More
