While the hotel had some updates, the overall experience left much to be desired. The room had been renovated, but the work was done poorly. The bathtub appeared to have been painted, but there were visible residues left behind. Paint drips were noticeable on the new laminate flooring, and the craftsmanship throughout the bathroom was sloppy. The grout was missing in chunks, paint was smeared on metal trim pieces, and the bathtub installation was especially rough. The toilet was difficult to flush, which added to the frustration. The air-conditioning did work well, but the room felt constantly moist and had a strong, musty odor—almost like urine. It made the stay uncomfortable despite the updated surfaces. Another concern was the elevator, which didn’t seem to function properly. The next day it was under repair, confirming my suspicion that something was wrong. It was unsettling to know that it could have been unsafe. On a positive note, the staff were very friendly and helpful, and I want to be clear that they were not the issue. Unfortunately, the condition of the room and the overall musty, outdated feel of the hotel made it hard to justify the cost. In my opinion, the value simply wasn't there.

Pros: Great location; staff was accommodating and very helpful; shower gets hot with good water pressure; utilization of Clevelander amenities. Cons: The pictures of the rooms that they advertise are NOT from the Essex: they are from the Clevelander. We were definitely disappointed. The hallways are extremely antiquated. The rugs need to be pulled and have a slight smell to them. The rooms are decent but the bathrooms are in dire need of an upgrade. They are also very small. The rooms do NOT have a fridge. The hotel has no vending machine. There is no common ice machine. You have to get the ice from the front desk. Some of the rooms don’t have a full length mirror. I know this because we had to be moved. Our first room had a leaking AC, no full size mirror. The second room had a mirror, but no toilet pressure. There are no rooms with a dresser. It’s a pain in the ass to not have a mirror to see what you look like or a dresser to put your things on. The room doors don’t close behind you. You think it’s closed and it’s actually open. Would not stay here again, especially with the amount of lodging available nearby.

Great Location, Mixed Experience

Stay: July 7–9, 2025 | Family of 6, 2 Rooms (1st and 2nd Floor) Our family of six stayed at the Essex House Hotel in Miami for two nights, and while the location and staff were highlights, several issues impacted our experience. Pros: The staff was friendly and accommodating, making early check-in possible (though one room incurred a $50 fee). The hotel’s location in South Beach is fantastic—just a two-minute walk to the beach, restaurants, and the Art Deco Museum, making it ideal for exploring. The rooms were clean, with comfortable beds and minimal but functional furniture. Free Wi-Fi, bottled water, and other resort amenities were nice, though a daily resort fee applied. Cons: Despite the prime location, the neighborhood was extremely noisy until 1 a.m., even on weekdays, forcing us to run the loud air conditioning to drown it out. While the bedrooms felt recently renovated, the hallways were neglected, with worn carpets and visible stains. The AC units in both rooms were annoyingly loud, disrupting sleep. Most concerning, the bathrooms had no ventilation, and the water was a major issue—only one faucet worked, and it delivered only scalding hot water. Overall: The Essex House Hotel has a great location and friendly service, but the noisy surroundings, outdated hallways, and serious bathroom issues were disappointing. It’s a decent option for those prioritizing location, but families seeking reliable amenities may want to consider alternatives

Very Disappointing Stay – Not Worth the Price! I had a terrible experience at Essex House by Clevelander. First of all, their behavior was extremely rude when I asked for a water bottle at night – the staff seemed annoyed and unhelpful. The bathroom was very dirty, and shockingly small – barely enough space to move around. The lobby and carpets throughout the hotel were unclean and smelled bad, which immediately gave a poor impression. As for breakfast, it was a joke – they only offered one coffee and one croissant, with no other options at all. Very disappointing for a place that advertises itself as a good hotel. Overall, it was not a pleasant stay, and I would not recommend this hotel to anyone. Definitely not worth the money.

Be very careful with staff and management. We arrived at hotel around 1230pm. Check was at 4pm. We asked if our room was ready could we check in earlier. Staff said yes, it's $50 to check in early and you could pay room with cc but we need the $50 in cash. We paid the $50 in cash and he checked us in. He took us to a room that we did not book on line. We booked a garden suite. They tried to give us a regular room claiming it's their suites. I declined that room and asked for a refund and my $50 back. Once I told him that not the room we booked, he didn't believe me. He asked if I could show him proof because expedia be advertising false pictures. I pulled up my booking then showed him. He told the manager she did so book garden suite. Manager walked us to another room and asked was this the room you booked. I said yes!! Manager stated well the room is not ready now (to my eyes the room looked like it had been cleaned already). He said I will call you when it's ready. When we finally checked in I notice the door did not close all the wa, the bathroom doors did not close for privacy. We had to prop our suitcases behind the door to keep it closed. There was no ice machine on property and there was a roach crawling in bed. We traveled 5 hours to celebrate our anniversary and was not happy with the staff trying to get extra money for themselves and not feeling safe in room and area.
