Gorgeous large resort style pool area with attentive and friendly staff. Indoor hotel staff also very pleasant and helpful. Hotel and rooms are beautifully decorated and well-maintained. Great location within walking distance for dining and shopping. Enjoyed a free yoga class and massage, both at the hotel and both experiences amazing. We stayed during the World Cup and it was exciting but never noisy. Would highly recommend The National Hotel and wouldn’t look elsewhere if ever travelling to Miami South Beach in the future.

Enjoyed it very much. Staff quality spotty, music at the real swimming pool w loungers pool (not the beautiful long pool w no loungers), was Far Too Loud. But the beach was gorgeous, the restaurant very good & the room nice enough. (Why cheap dispenser soap next to the bathroom sink? I went to the drugstore to buy something decent. Similarly, 1-ply toilet paper in a \"luxury hotel\"? Both are wrong ways to pinch pennies.)

I'd never stayed at an \"adults only\" hotel & really did find the swimming pools more enjoyable, much as it's so much fun to watch kids enjoying themselves.

Great historic hotel on South Beach. The attributes that give this hotel 5 star are:
Great location on the beach. Walking distance to Lincoln rd. And ocean drive and next to the bike and walking trail along the beach
All areas of the hotel including our room in the Cabanas were exceptionally clean
Pool side restaurant has amazing food
Spanish restaurant in the lobby also serves great Spanish inspired dinners and provides indoor and outdoor seating
My favorite spots are the two pools. One pool is an amazing 200 ft plus long and both are clean and well taken care of
My five star rating also was influenced by the staff. They all especially the servers and bartenders were knowledgeable and friendly and professional
I would highly recommend this hotel and as a matter of fact upon checking out we booked another stay 2 months from today

I had an excellent experience at the national in Miami Beach! The property was chosen because it’s adjacent to the beach and that convenience was a definite benefit. The hotel staff was first rate at attentive, certainly adding to the good experience that was had. The on-site restaurant is top-notch and is to be recommended for its selection of paella dishes. Proximity to the ocean Drive area also is a plus as it was easy to access some of the entertainment options located in that part of the city, yet gain the benefit of being not directly in the mix of larger crowds. The fact that the property is Adult Only was a definite plus!

This hotel is beautiful and everyone on the staff from the valet to the front desk and managers was extremely kind and helpful. The pools are the perfect size and the pool side service is great. I love that you get a pool chair and towel &/or a beach chair and towel each day included with your stay. I wish they would also cover this for your final day - especially if you have a late flight out. Have already recommended this place to several people and I just got home. I will be returning.

While making reservations we were not told that hotel had a night party scheduled for 500 people going on till 1:30am with music so loud we could not sleep, furthermore hotel upgraded us to a cabana suites which where $150 more per night total of $300 which were right next to the party instead of telling us to stay in the main building which wouldn’t be affected by the loud noise .

We stayed here to celebrate our 10-year anniversary and unfortunately the experience fell far below expectations.

From the beginning of our stay, we experienced issues with the room AC and shower water pressure, both of which were reported to the hotel. We were also disturbed multiple times despite displaying a Do Not Disturb sign. Additionally, certain anniversary accommodations that we had been told were being arranged never materialized.

To the hotel’s credit, management did acknowledge some of these concerns and offered to waive 50% of the resort fees. But that would amount to perhaps $50 total for a stay that cost us over$1,500. When I respectfully asked whether the hotel would consider a more meaningful resolution given the circumstances, communication stopped entirely.

Over the past several weeks I have sent multiple follow-up emails and have received no response. At this point, my disappointment is not only with the stay itself, but also with the lack of follow-through and customer service afterward.

For a property at this price point and reputation, I expected both a better guest experience and better post-stay support.

I would welcome the opportunity for management to finally respond.

The location is perfect, close to Lincoln road and a reasonable walk to other parts of south beach.

The overall stay was fine, but considering the $700 a night, could have been a little better
The good:
1. The room a good size and the bed and pillows were extremely comfortable allowing us one of the most restful resort stays, significantly better than others.
2. The shower included a separate shower wand, very appreciated and rare to find.
3 The pools and surrounding outdoor areas were clean and well equipped and and outdoor staff was attentive and pleasant.
4. The AC in the room worked great.
5. Great location very walkable to numerous restaurants, shops, beach, etc.
6. Very nostalgic decorating reminiscent of 50-60s Hollywood, unique.

The not so good:
1. The heater in our room didn't work at all. One night came in and 65 degrees wanted it a little warmer, switched it to heat, but the vents continued to blow cold air. So had to turn off AC and extra blanket.
2 the bathroom a little cramped and worn. but expected for an older hotel. However, the lack of an exhaust fan unacceptable.
3. Water pressure was very poor especially when using that lovely shower wand.
4. Blow dryer stopped working the first day. Told the front desk late that morning around 11, along with a towel requests since no house keeping yet. Came back from pool later that day and still no blow dryer, towels or house keeping. Had to call again, and about an hour after that finally recieved both.
Summary: would consider staying again, but at a better price point.

Our first time here and our stay was good. Valet parking only. Valet staff were okay. Arrival was great, departure not so much. Ordered the car from the text message, as requested, and it took forever for them to bring the car around. The front desk staff were fantastic. Very friendly and accommodating. Beach attendants were good. They setup the chairs and umbrellas for six of us, and checked on us throughout our time on the beach. The outside bar by the pool served great drinks and food. Service was a little slow, but they were busy. Elevators are very small. They could barely fit 4 people with luggage. Our room was very clean. A little small, but we had a great view of the pool and the beach. Bathroom was very small. We ate dinner and breakfast in the hotel restaurant. Food was delicious. Dinner was mostly Tapas…so good. Breakfast was good as well. Service was a little slow. If you are in a hurry keep that on mind. Bartender at the inside bar was just okay. Cocktail waitress was great. We stopped by before dinner, and then again for a nightcap, after strolling around and checking out other places along Collins Ave. Overall, we had a good experience, and would likely stay here again if we ever get to South Beach in the future.

Stayed in Penthouse. Elevator got stuck with us in it. Door would not open. Also every time the elevator moved or was used it would make a horribly loud sound and shake our entire penthouse. We had to buy a box floor fan to try and mask the extremely loud elevator sound. The elevator sound was so loud that we had to sleep on the couch downstairs in the penthouse. Will not stay again if not fixed. Also, the water pressure was very very low and made it hard to shower. Other than that the Hotel was perfect. If the elevator gets resolved we will gladly recommend and stay again.

2nd time we have visited The National. Even encouraged friends to come with us this time due to our previous experience. Hotel is nice, clean, up to date, and great access to the beach and usually a great outdoor bar and pool. However, what the hotel failed to mention was that (our favorite amenity) the outdoor bar and sitting area would be shut down both days at 3pm for a private party, and the indoor bar will not open until 5pm. Leaving many guests who expected to use the National facilities for the day to leave property to eat or drink. Which could be ok, but we were never notified of these items when making reservations, during email communication or leading up to our visit. Just the morning of, feel as though better communication should be expected as we could have then made an educated choice about where to stay. Morning of check out, hotel asked about our stay. I told them all was great, except disappointed with issues above. They provided small credit toward the resort fee. However, would have rather had proper communication prior to our stay so we would have known what we could expect, than a small credit at check out.

I’m not one to ever leave reviews but was so disappointed, made sure to review this place.
Paid extra for an “ocean view” room - well, you could technically see the ocean… but it was super far away and mostly blocked by another part of the hotel - total ripoff. Hotel is old and outdated, the room was tiny and not very clean. Asked valet to have the car ready at a specific time because we had dinner reservations. It wasn’t ready and we waited so long for the car that we almost missed our reservation at a fully booked restaurant. Called the front desk the night before to ask for a late checkout- as we had checked in super late and got back super late, and wanted to get a good nights rest without being rushed to leave in the morning. They said I’d have to call back at 8 am the next morning to ask for a late checkout…. What? On vacation and wanting to get plenty of sleep- but I’ll have to wake up early to request a late checkout?! What a joke. When I did wake up and called the front desk for a late checkout - they had no more available, so had to extremely rush to pack and get out. Would never stay here again. A massive waste of money. Extremely overpriced for the quality of amenities and service.

This isn’t the first time I’ve stayed at the National, but it just keeps getting better. I love it there and I can’t wait to go back. Extra special shout-out to Margherita (bartender), Alejandro (assistant) and Yaser, one of the most proper GM’s I’ve ever met. He definitely goes above and beyond. 10/10!!

Shame that the bar/Infinity pool area does get rented out privately, so we couldn't use it for an afternoon, although the beach is available, sometimes you just want to relax around the pool.

The other pool was cold and seating in the shade, so made it chilly!

We arrived for our 4th stay
We informed before arrival of the pools would not be available due to the Miami music festival.
The first issue is that the Miami music festival is a front for spring break.
The music blasted for 12 hours a day starting just after 11am.
In our room the noise was so loud you could not ever sleep in the music hours
After the first night I went to reception to see could be done, basically they only could offer ear plugs, so management knew of the issue.
We could not move any other hotels as all was full.
They did try to charge a resort fee although the pool was unavailable and the only access to beach was out the front of the hotel then walk to the next corner down a construction zone and then back to the beach behind the hotel, totally unacceptable
The hotel was full of drunken or drug affected patrons in foyer going to and from the pool party event
On returning from dinner two nights had to get security to clear a way into the hotel.
On Checkout I tried for the second time to discuss my issues with the General manger and after waiting 49 minutes the front office manager appeared to say all hotels have the same sound issues, really our bad luck.
After 3 nights of little sleep and living with a continuous spring break party, I expect a 100% refund as this was a total disaster

We love the long pool at this hotel.

And then they had the effrontery to charge us the resort fee for those days. Really disappointing treatment with no thought to accommodate the guests and I doubt we will stay there again.

At this time of year it’s forgotten that it’s meant to be a hotel and has overwhelmingly prioritised being a bad night club.
