I was only there for one night, but I wish i could have stayed longer! The staff was friendly and helpful. The room was spacious and clean, great balcony view! I would recommend The Grayson and will be returning there again.

Very nice location if your goal is to be on Biscayne Boulevard/near the harbor. The room was small, which is fine, but it was not clean. There was one guest chair that was absolutely filthy. I mentioned this to the staff and was told that the chair would be replaced. The chair was simply removed and a new one was never provided. The shower head was filled with mold.

The views from the room were spectacular, loved how it is right next to everything. Didn’t need to take my car out of valet, the front desk was so sweet and kind. Didn’t get to really try anything food wise would love if there was more of a verity of food within the property. I was able to try a drink an espresso martini which was fantastic. I would definitely recommend coming here if you are someone who loves doing things out in Miami.

Don’t expect to check in a minute before 4pm. They don’t care! Valet is paid before you can even check in because it’s not the same company as the hotel. The room was definitely pretty and clean and spacious. Sad thing is it’s not sound proof and you hear all the honking from the city outside. Upon checkout the bellman was upset because we asked him for a cart. He wanted us to go get it! So he came angry and didn’t want to leave the cart but also stood there while we loaded the cart not him. I wasn’t changed yet So I asked him for 5 minutes so I could change and he said no we only have a few carts. So he stayed INSIDE MY ROOM while I changed in the bathroom. I was beyond frustrated and uncomfortable. I mean this service was the worst I’ve ever had!

This hotel is beautiful! I only stayed for one night. I didn’t get the pool view I had hoped for, and checking in after 4 PM when the pool closes at 6 wasn’t ideal. However, the staff upgraded my room due to the issue, and they even waived my resort fee, which I really appreciated.

Room was average with no real character and the bathroom had curtains at the entry, instead of a door, which is something I've not seen before in a hotel. In addition, the curtain were stained and dirty. The bar experience on the 3rd floor lacked energy and an aesthetic and the lower level bar/restaurant was not operational. The hotel is may be 3 star...definitely not 4 star.

No the room was great. My issue is that I paid $54 for breakfast, my husband called the front desk and told her we paid for breakfast can we get it delivered to the room. She said yes and transferred him directly to room service, we ordered, room service got to the room and charged us another $100 for breakfast and said we did not order from the right place. Th food was okay, not worth $100, the omelet was very salty, chicken for the chicken/waffles was bland/ too much breading. We could not eat it.

My wife and I stayed at The Grayson Miami Downtown before heading out on a cruise, and it was a great choice for a pre cruise stay. From the moment we arrived, the property felt modern, clean, and well designed.

Our room was spacious and comfortable, which made it easy to relax and unwind before travel day. It had a fresh, contemporary feel without trying too hard, and everything was laid out thoughtfully. For a downtown hotel, we were pleasantly surprised by how comfortable and roomy it felt.

The staff were friendly and welcoming, which always makes a difference. Check in was smooth and interactions throughout our stay were positive.

One of the biggest highlights was the location. It was perfect for getting out in the morning for a walk and exploring downtown Miami. We loved being able to step outside and immediately experience the city before making our way to the cruise port. Overall, it was a convenient, comfortable, and well located place to stay, and we would happily return.

When i checked in and got to the room it was chilly so i called the front desk and was told there is no heat in the hotel. Expected temperatures were given so i would think they would at least put something in place. I called the front desk last night to enquire what are going to do seeng that the temp in the room dropped to 54F. They suggested more blankets. Last night the room temp dropped to 50F it was the most uncomfortable i have ever been. I might as well be a homeless person on the street! My wife and i are now very sick with head colds. At least the should have portable heaters in case temperatures dip low. I wont be staying at the Greyson again.

Room spacious but lighting poor, bedside reading lamps do not stay at adjusted level as they droop and become useless. One design flaw I feel in the design of the bathroom is the wall of frosted glass. During the night if someone goes into the bathroom and turns on the light the entire room is illuminated waking the other person. Aesthetically impressive, functionally poor.

Our experience in the restaurant was less than impressive. We had dinner there one evening and the room was serviced by one waiter. He did an excellent job but was obviously challenged by the number of tables he was waiting on. However, our dinner was very good. At breakfast the next morning a similar scene unfolded, one waitress to handle the whole restaurant. We arrived towards the end of breakfast service and found almost every table had not been cleared from previous guests. Again, one poor waitress trying to wait on the whole dining room. We ordered eggs, bacon, home fries and toast. After waiting almost half an hour our order arrived and food was barely warm, one slice of cold UN buttered toast on the plate. We had to request butter and jam. For $21. one would expect better. The waitress was very professional and went out of her way to make things right.
Obviously the room was understaffed and she was trying to please under difficult circumstances.

I arrived at the hotel at 5pm and had to wait a half hour for my room. Lady gave me no information on Wi-Fi or restaurants/ amenities.
The room itself was ok, close to pool but that pool rarely gets sun so it’s not very appealing.
In general it’s a good location but I won’t rush back.

The ammenities were excellent; professional BabyBliss Pro hairdryer, pool, hot tub with wheel chair access, cold plunge pool, lap swimming pool and the most well equipped hotel gym I've ever seen. Our booking came with a complimentary bottle of wine and discounted tickets to the Frost Museum across the street. Rooms were clean, down pillows on the bed were extemely comfortable. Staff was very helpful with recommendations and information. The Frost Museum is a must, and i highly recommend a visit to Miam the coffee shop around the corner. Overall, great experience.

This is a quirky hotel that has some pluses but, overall, for the price, it didn’t really work for us. In particular, it seems understaffed and lacking in quality-control and consistency in friendly service.

PROS
-Pool area and pool staff
-Size of room; clean and spacious
-Fitness centre
-Check-in personnel friendly
-Water in the lobby
-Location

CONS
-Bathroom separated by flimsy curtain
-Design of electrical sockets in the room could not support phone chargers; kept falling out
-Breakfast waiting time in the restaurant was close to an hour with the justification being that room service was taking priority
-When we asked for bath towels to be delivered because the maid had forgotten to leave them, a stack were delivered which included someone’s dirty towel
-Room keys frequently demagnetized
-Some front office staff (male staff) were abrupt and unfriendly

This was one of the most frustrating hotel stays I’ve had in Miami. Check-in was unnecessarily confusing, especially in heavy rain. No one clearly explained that guests needed to go to The Marquis for check-in, leaving us standing outside trying to figure it out on our own.

Once on the property, service continued to disappoint. At the restaurant, it took over 15 minutes just for a server to acknowledge us and take our order. The food itself was mediocre at best, yet priced as if it were fine dining. The value simply does not match the cost.

The biggest issue, however, was the room. Upon entering, there was hair everywhere, which is unacceptable by any standard. By the time this was discovered, housekeeping had already left for the day. There were no alternative rooms available, and despite the seriousness of the cleanliness issue, the hotel never sent anyone to address it—not even to inspect or offer a temporary solution.

Management’s response was minimal and dismissive. They comped the resort fee and breakfast, which does not begin to make up for staying in an unsanitary room. They refused to issue a refund solely because the booking was made through Hotels.com. Even when Hotels.com contacted the hotel directly on our behalf, the hotel still refused to refund the stay.

Poor communication, slow service, cleanliness issues, and a complete lack of accountability from management made this stay a regretful choice. I would not recommend this hotel and will not be returning.

Had an awesome experience but being out on our first night and coming in a little after 2am, it was very chilly and our heat stopped working. I made “front desk” aware and the only one dude working at the desk wanted to come check it for himself because he thought I may have had it on “cool,” but upon checking, he noticed it was maintenance related issue. After, we asked could we be moved, he suggested us to be moved from a suit to a standard king room because that would be the only one room available but we denied, then offered to just bring us extra sheets & blankets and to leave our front + the balcony door to allow the cook area to escape the room for the night. LOL. He opened them for us and placed our room chairs to hold open the doors. After leaving, he never brought the extra sheets and blankets. As we patiently waited, of course we passed out waiting with both doors wide open, SMH. WE WAS SO PISSED OFF! We were both there to celebrate our birthdays, so we were tipsy! After seeing the same guy again the next night when he was back on clock, he blamed it on housekeeping for not bringing them, which was BS!

Biggest complaint, pool and hot tubs closed at 5:30pm.
Bar next to pool was not staffed.
The room was good, cool view of the cruise ships.
It was a little dingyish or maybe just poor finishing such as paint. Over all though for the price it was good.
Staff was friendly and it’s a great location. Not sure if I’ll stay there again but I won’t write it off completely.
If the pool didn’t close so early would have given 4 stars!

The hotel (which was originally a Hilton) has passed through a couple of owners since being built. The current owner is trying for \"chic\" but ends up with \"cheap\". The handheld shower head was broken, several of the wall outlets didn't work, the bedside lamps don't have switches on the base (have to fumble around behind nightstand for switch on cord), one of the bedside lamps required twisting a knot in the cord to make it work. The glass patio door was misaligned, leading to my wife being unable to open it, several of the drapes had the pull rods fall off. The front desk staff was not knowledgeable about the hotel facilities; for example told me that the valet service wasn't available before 7 when it is actually a 24 hour service (per the valet manager, a separate company). There isn't the customary book of local information in the room, and the front desk wasn't much help. They didn't even have a map of the area available. When asked about a room service menu, we were directed to an unlabeled QR code on the back of the room key card; which ultimately was worthless since no one ever answered the phone. We went to the restaurant one evening, and there wasn't anyone there, I wandered around the back rooms and finally somebody figured out there was a customer waiting and a bartender came out. This appeared to be the norm for service there, very lucky to get their attention. If you want ice, you have to request from front desk, none on floors. And front desk doesn't answer...

I really enjoyed my stay at the Grayson. I loved the amenities like the free happy hour drinks and the pool, also the orange water in the lobby lol. I loved the 1pm - 3pm happy hour at Bella’s Bar. The drinks were delicious and so was the food. Everything we ate at the hotel restaurants was really good and everything was clean. My only complaints were 2 days of our 5 nights housekeeping didn’t come despite us being out most of the day and having the “please service room” up and every time we got food/drink they charged us a 22% service fee. On the first night in the main restaurant, we paid digital so didn’t realize we were doubling tipping and felt scammed. We would have tipped regardless so I didn’t enjoy the forced tipping. We found our shower to be weird, the glass door only covered half the tub so the water always slipped out on to the bathroom floor. Other than that, we had a great time. It was close to all the things we wanted to do in Miami.
