The room was spacious, beds comfortable, charming overall. What really set the place apart was their staff. Fritzner at check-in was knowledgable, friendly and efficient. The bell hops, Juan & Fritz couldn't have been more helpful with bags, taxi's and offerings waters & umbrellas just when you needed them. I will be visiting the Betsy again!

We stayed here for three nights and absolutely loved it. It’s definitely our new favorite hotel in Miami Beach. The entire staff is just lovely, from check in to departure. Pam gave us the best dinner recommendation. Another bartender said she makes her drinks with heart, and I think that sentiment shows in all staff! The doorman grabbed water for us as we returned from a run. Juan helped me navigate my bags and Uber as I was leaving. The room had everything we needed, and the live music in the lobby created a great atmosphere. We can’t wait to return! Read less

My wife and I recently had the pleasure of staying at the spectacular Betsy Hotel again. What a visit! This time we introduced the Betsy to our daughter and future son-law, who now are as excited about the Betsy as we are. The mix of being a 3-minute walk from the beach combined with the interesting sights and restaurants of the city-like South Beach makes for a superb location. We were taken in again by the elegant yet comfortable décor, with special art and photographs on display throughout the boutique hotel and great jazz piano serenading us. We had several delicious meals at the LT Restaurant during our stay -- the first-rate food and upbeat atmosphere at the phenomenal hotel restaurant are always a treat. But the people are what makes the Betsy so special!! Bellmen Fritz and Juan were very helpful and made us feel at home every time we saw them with their warm smiles. Chris and Fritzner at the front desk were very accommodating with everything we needed. The concierge, Paul, had great suggestions again, including an Art Deco tour leaving from the hotel lobby which our daughter and son-in-law enjoyed and a less known French bistro, which was excellent. In the restaurant, Anna, Daniel, Joanny, Rene and Sebastian and several other staff members helped make our meals a treat. We highly recommend the Betsy and can’t wait until our next visit! Read less
