I booked this room because of it's location to the Miami Beach Convention Center. It was in walkable distance and helped me to avoid any traffic trying to get to the facility. The hotel was decent and clean but the location of our room was close to the outdoor patio. We can literally open our blinds and a party or group is dining right outside of our bedroom window. We had to listen to the noise until about 11-11:30 which I complained to the staff about. Since I had to be up early to attend a conference the next day, this was very disturbing for my son and I. They should have given us an option at check-in. This is poorly designed but I guess since it's Miami, the expectation is that people are up partying and hanging out so it shouldn't be an issue. If I ever choose to stay here again, I would definitely request not being close to the patio. Buyer BEWARE!

I recently stayed at the Liberty Park Hotel South Beach. The front desk staff—especially Claude—were very friendly and helpful, which I truly appreciated. Unfortunately, the room itself was disappointing. The sink was clogged, and the noise level was quite high due to guests moving around, making it hard to relax. If you’re looking for a quiet place to stay, this may not be the best option.

Everything was very nice. The hotel is in a nice location of South Beach away from all the night-time noise and close to shopping, restaurants and the beach. There is also a very nice Italian restaurant on the patio of the hotel. We ate there twice. The antipasto and focaccia is excellent.

The pool area is nice - although there could be more umbrellas to protect from the hot Miami sun. The beach area is nice also - friendly staff, lounges and towels included in the resort fee, but umbrellas are extra.

Everything was great except for one thing - the beds. The beds were awful. The mattresses we so broken down that even sleeping the in the middle of the bed didn't help. Clearly, they purchased the cheapest mattress available - which is strange to me given the number of international guests at the hotel. One would think that a European-standard firm mattress would have been their choice instead of the usual cheapest possible soft mattress you find in most American hotels.

If there is a reason that we would not return, this would be it. Otherwise, everything was very nice.

overall, my boyfriend and i’s trip went smoothly at this hotel. one big thing to note is the hotel’s AC runs VERY slowly. the room does eventually get cool, but it will take a couple hours. the room was clean, and housekeeping did a great job. rooftop pool was wonderful. something else that may be helpful to others is that the staff doesn’t really speak english, and if they do it’s extremely broken. there’s nothing wrong with this whatsoever, but we did have a problem with the first room they put us in, and communicating it to staff was very difficult and took a lot longer than it should have. other than that, they were all wonderful and treated us well.

Very disappointing check-in experience. Despite booking two rooms under the same name and called the morning before we arrived to have the room adjacent to each other. When we got there we were on opposite side of the building- even though I explained again we have kid it did really matter.

The check-in process was slow and the front desk staff provided no explanation or guidance, just handed us the keys. We had to ask a staff member for directions, which was difficult due to a lack of language barrier.

Overall poor communication and a lack of consideration for family.

This was a very disappointing stay. The hotel is old, poorly maintained, and extremely dirty.

The bathroom was in terrible condition — the tiles were broken and moldy, and even the toilet seat was loose and unstable, which felt very unsafe and unhygienic.

On top of that, the noise at night was unbearable. There was loud music and people talking all night, making it impossible to sleep.

Overall, everything about this place felt neglected and uncomfortable. I would not recommend this hotel to anyone, and I would definitely not stay here again.

The hotel was not as advertised. It did not have a lobby or any staff - you had to go outside to the hotel next door to check in, access the pool and speak to any staff. The beach was also not as advertised in the photos. The chairs guests had access to were in a section with a number of other hotels. We were sat maybe 20 rows back and couldn’t see the water. The golf cart service advertised was not available. The hotel also had a bit of a dank smell in the hallways.

We stayed at Liberty Park Hotel for a long weekend and it worked out really well. The first thing we noticed was how clean the room was, and housekeeping kept it that way the whole time.

Be warned, they lock the thermostats at 72 degrees. We had to go back and forth with maintenance and the front desk for 2 nights for them to set it to 70 degrees. Windows are locked and filthy on outside. Bathroom window was covered with vines. Not enough loungers at the pool with just a handful of umbrellas. Room had scuffs on walls, ripped carpet, sheers were off rail so couldn't fully open. Elevator post advertises happy hour at attached restaurant with incorrect hours and we were never informed about the 2 free cocktails there daily. I rarely bother with reviews but want other visitors to be prepared. Check in area is at neighboring hotel and staff seemed bored to be there. Chamber maids were friendly though.

Liberty Park Hotel has this understated ease that’s hard to find. You settle in quickly, and before you know it, your days just fall into a really nice rhythm—beach, relax, repeat.

Liberty Park Hotel ended up being one of those stays that just clicks without you realizing why at first. Everything felt smooth—the pace of the day, the comfort of the rooms, the overall vibe.

If you're staying at Liberty Park, you'll have to check in next door at the Boulon (newer side). The Liberty Park side is cute but it's dated and needs upgrades. The Boulon side is more updated and modern. The roof top pool is really nice and the bartender is friendly. If you're staying on the 1st floor be prepared for some noise from the street and the courtyard restaurant.

Overall, it was an okay place. The check in process was not smooth. Upon arrival we were charged the $120 resort fee which we knew about prior. We were also charged $300 for security deposit that is still processing on my card. No one let us know that our hotel was in a different location than the check in desk, so we wandered around trying to find our room. The check in clerk saw us leave the desk and go in the complete wrong direction but did not say a word. The communication is not clear and you have to ask for things constantly. The beach ammenity is great and you get a two chairs and towels daily. I would not stay here again.

I had high hopes for this property based on the reviews and even approaching the hotel. It has a good location and curb appeal is great. However, the rest is downhill. The interior of the building is lacking in upkeep and maintenance. Our AC did not work properly and leaked all night long creating a pool of water in the room, even when maintenance was aware of the issue. Staff was less than personable. We also went upstairs to check out the rooftop pool which was super cute, but the pool bar was vacant. So we walked the perimeter and then left to go explore else where. This is important because upon check out, I had a fraudulent charge to our room for the pool bar and it has been impossible to speak with the manager about the fraudulent charge. I wouldn’t stay here again. I thought I paid a higher price for better quality and that is far from what we got.

Other than the carpet which was a bit worn, the room was very nice and all the features in it were clean and nice. There was a fridge (which wasn't mentioned) for which I was quite thankful. The pool was so warm and amazing (in March) and there was a hot tub (I don't recall seeing that on the web site). You got a free chaise longue chair and towel at the beach but had to pay $28 for an umbrella for a day. But overall a really good value for the money. And the garden dining area (I didn't eat there) was lovely and charming and so was the courtyard in the Bouchon next door (the two hotels were basically connected and you check in at the Bouchon).

Brunch at the orange blossom was very good. The location of the hotel was great but the parking situation is awful in Miami and expensive. I don’t like that breakfast is listed as included but actually for an additional charge and 40$ and night service fee that doesn’t include anything is crazy to me. Free parking I would’ve stayed there again but I would pay the extra money upfront to know where my money is going

The rooftop pool was the biggest highlight for us. Really gorgeous pool with a lovely hottub, ample seating, nice view, unlimited towels. Pool was heated, which was a lifesaver due to colder temps during our visit.

Our room was simple but clean and nice, the bed was very comfortable. The cleaning staff did a great job.
I read a few complaints about check in - the desk is actually located next door at the Boulan Hotel, but they are "sibling hotels" and the Boulan holds the front desk & the pool. It wasn't complicated, just something to be aware of. The staff was pleasant upon checkin.

The hotel is about a 3-5 minute walk from the beach and the hotel provided free beach chairs & towels (umbrellas for $). The boardwalk is lovely, and the hotel has a lot of amenities nearby: a CVS around the corner, Joe & the Juice (bad staff but good coffee). We ate at the Orange Blossom (the hotel's restaurant) and enjoyed the pasta and service there. The hotel is right on the bus stop, which makes it super easy to get around. We took the bus into Miami to see the Perez Museum (highly recommend).

But I have to say again: the pool! We loved it! Sometimes pictures can be deceiving, but the South Beach Hotel pics were very accurate. Lounging at the pool felt like paradise (for the price! As we heard one guy complaining at the check-in counter "I thought this was a 5 star hotel!" It is not a 5 star hotel! But you are not paying 5-star prices, so set your expectations accordingly!

Do Not Stay Here.
The photos advertised for this hotel are misleading—they appear to be from the Boulan South Beach Hotel, which is in the same building and noticeably nicer. This property is now called Liberty Park Hotel South Beach (the name was changed just before we left).
Cleanliness is a major issue. Getting a clean room, fresh towels, or washcloths on a daily basis was a constant struggle. Housekeeping comes around 8:00 a.m., and if you miss them, you’re essentially out of luck for the rest of the day.
Our room had a cracked window upon arrival. The Wi-Fi routinely went out around 10:00 p.m. (sometimes earlier), which also meant no TV. There is no elevator, and the hotel itself is very old and in serious need of extensive renovations.
Guest services were unhelpful—the front desk rarely answered the phone, so when we needed basic items like washcloths, we had to track down staff ourselves.
Overall, staying here felt more like work than a vacation. Save yourself the headache and choose a different hotel.

Front desk does not answer phone to help with this after 12pm at night. Let them know in the morning - not interested. So if you want a bad night sleep this is the place for you! Room was clean - side note the bottom sheet rolls off bed and you end up in a cocoon wrapped around you while you stuff earplugs in your ears and listen to your neighbors swear and yell all night.

I was in town for work during Miami Art Week and stayed at the South Beach Hotel. To my surprise there is no staff at this hotel, but it's managed by the people at the Boulan next door, who were nice. However at check in I wasn't told anything about WiFi, beach services (which don't really start at 8am as listed, but 9:30), the pool, which I never found, the restaurant hours, etc, just given a key. There's a 8.5x11" sign but in my bleariness after travel I thought it was a promo for something. The woman at the front desk was eating when I arrived and acted a bit annoyed that I interrupted her lunch. I figured it all out the next day, but some personal instruction would have been nice.

My room was clean, with a little peeling paint in the bathroom corners. The hallways were a little worse for wear. The carpet outside my room looked like it could use a steam clean. Sheets, closet and drawers were clean - I always check. AC, TV, and mini-fridge worked great. I never ate at the restaurant so can't comment on food but I saw lots of people dining, especially in the evenings. A group party showed up on Friday night - big weekend after all - who made a mess in the courtyard, and it was all cleaned up by noon the next day. Housekeeping was attentive each morning, but I don't need daily service. I had the room cleaned 2x in 6 days. Very nice ladies, I hope folks tip them well!! It's no frills, but location is ideal between beach and convention center. 100% would stay again.

Opon checking in, clearly the hotel looks outdated from the the pics posted on expedia. Bathroom was old and moldy, toilet flushes super slow like its clogged. We asked the staff to come look at it but they never did. They are not accommodating. We asked for a late check out on Christmas eve and they "said" were all booked out. This hotel was clearly not full. The resort fee is a rip off and they never once offer the 2 free drinks daily as advertised. I'd stay away from this location!

Great location. The room was clean. The air conditioner leaked water. The WiFi was super slow. Faster internet would be my best recommendation. Overall very nice for the price.

Very disappointing stay. Day 1 itself was problematic. The room had a strong, weird smell, and the bathroom had no exhaust, making it even worse. There were also leaks from the upper floor, which is unacceptable.
The most ridiculous part was the AC situation - in a city as hot as this, the hotel locks the AC at 70°F and doesn’t allow guests to lower it. The room stayed warm all night, and I couldn’t sleep at all. On top of that, the noise insulation is terrible. You can literally hear everything from outside. At 3 AM, I could clearly hear people walking and tables/chairs being moved, which was such a nuisance and made sleeping impossible.
This hotel absolutely does not deserve a 4-star hotel. I’ve stayed in 2-star hotels that were far better than this.
Do not choose this place for your stay. Total letdown.

The room was impeccably clean and the bed was the most comfortable I’ve ever slept in. What really sets this place apart, though, is the staff; they are genuinely helpful and seem to care about your experience. :)

I was here for a conference but stayed an extra two days to explore. The Wi-Fi was fast, which was great for work, The location is walking distance to great restaurants and shops. A special thanks to the front desk team for being so helpful.

Everything about this hotel was top-notch. The location is ideal for sightseeing, but what really stood out was the staff—they were so attentive and professional. Our room was spotless and the bed was incredibly comfortable.

The interior design is stunning. Every corner of the lobby is photo-worthy. It’s clear they put a lot of thought into the aesthetics of this place. The staff was amazing! tHANKS

I am very picky about beds, but this one was like a cloud. The blackout curtains actually worked, and I didn't hear a sound from the hallway. I haven't slept that well in months. Totally recommend!
