Pros:

Very beautiful property!!! Many areas to have a coffee on the patio, or enjoy a glass of wine on the rooftop!!!

Cons:

Parking in Miami is very difficult! You either have to pay to park, which is hard to find a parking spot or choose the valet. A little pricey in my opinion. But, sometimes it’s what you have to do.

Ótima localização e atendimento
Pros:

Estivemos no hotel durante 5 dias, a localização é bem favorável para quem quer ir à praia e explorar diversos restaurantes nas redondezas. Tem um parking no shopping onde está o Best buy que aceita pernoite e o preço é bem justo. A Best Buy, Target, Ross, TJ max ficam a 15min do hotel e tem farmácias a 5min.

Cons:

Não tenho do que reclamar do hotel, apenas que nosso quarto era pouco iluminado artificialmente, mas acredito que era pq o Led da sanca estava queimado.

Pros:

התארחנו במלון המפטון ונהנינו מאוד. המלון נקי, נוח ומסודר, הצוות היה אדיב ושירותי, והמיקום שקט ומרכזי . תמורה מצוינת למחיר, ובהחלט נשמח להתארח בו שוב.

Zeker een aanrader! Je loopt zo het centrum van Ocean drive op.
Pros:

De kamer is ruim en schoon. De bedden liggen lekker en zijn ook groot. Wat super is is dat je strandhanddoeken krijgt en vanuit het hotel zijn er ook gratis strandbedjes en parasols op South beach.

Cons:

Het zwembad was echt heel erg warm. Het leek wel een jacuzzi…. Dit was echt bizar. Verder was wel echt alles top aan ons verblijf en konden we zelfs de laatste dag na het uitchecken nog douchen en gebruik maken van alle faciliteiten.

If ever I come back to Miami, The Balfour will be the only place I'm staying in South Beach.
Pros:

The staff were incredibly nice. The location was convenient because it was walking distance to the beach. The Balfour also accommodated your beach trip with towels and two chairs with an umbrella. The rooms were clean, and cozy.

Cons:

Food options. Only serves breakfast, which was a bit pricey.
