Gale South Beach - Miami rand

I expected this Hotel to be among the best because it looked amazing on the web as far as the room and location was concerned but, first of all... When we arrived we learned the parking was an extra charge, the room was extremely small, the bathroom had no privacy although it was quite clean. it was the closest to South Beach we were able to find at […] the time due to an unexpected event going on during this particular week end. Bottom line... It was very small & over priced!!! Lisateave

Very nice hotel but the room was way overpriced for its size. Tiny...tiny room with absolutely no space for even a toiletry bag on the bathroom counter and very poor lighting in the bathroom as well. There are no iron and ironing boards (because the hotel is so called green) which was a nightmare, I was late for a dinner reservation because the in-room […] steamer that they provide in each room was not ideal at all. Didn't like the automatic food and beverage charge of $15 per day which was a use it or loose it charge, a complete rip-off; a way for the hotel to get more money out of you. Plan and simple this charge forces you to use the bar or restaurant on property both of which are way overpriced for what you get and I'm from NYC. Plan and simple, find a better deal at another hotel if you can Lisateave

We were shocked when we arrived that there was an additional daily $25.00 resort fee charge not quoted by hotels.com during booking. The hotel is close to everything but not beach side. Luckily we had access to the Shelborne hotel beach and pool so this was ok (if you like to cross the street and walk a little). The room was quite small without too […] much space for personal things....had to use floor. Overall, the hotel is very nice looking, clean and offers a friendly staff. The restaurant was very good although it was closed 1 nite for a personal party. We were very disappointed..had planned a romantic dinner the day before. Will not stay here again. Lisateave

We booked a room with two queen beds. Not a honeymoon type arrangement, so we found very uncomfortable that the shower area was open to the room with clear doors. Also, the mirror in the shower area had two clear panels on either side of it that made the area visible to where the beds are placed. Not any privacy when showering. That would cause me not […] to book this again. Also, the hallways are not carpeted and the noise from people on the halls was very loud. It is lovely and I'm sure people who like this kind of thing will be quite pleased. It was not to our taste. Lisateave

This is overall a lovely hotel in a very good location. The big drawback is the size of the room. The bed was against the window and accessible only from one side (very inconvenient for 2 people sharing) and there was absolutely no place other than the floor for luggage. There was only a very small closet with no drawer space. More creativity in design […] could have made better use of the space available. Lisateave

This hotel has been renovated and furnished beautifully, and it really shows in the public areas and restaurants. However, signature rooms are tiny (smaller than any NYC hotel room I've ever stayed in), and lack even a full-sized closet. If you're staying for more than a night, you'll need to request extra clothes racks which will occupy whatever extra […] floor space there is. Bathrooms lack doors (the, albeit beautiful, glass and marble showers are visible from the entryway). Service was poor for a hotel of this caliber - housekeeping obviously did not vacuum the floors, the hotel restaurants were unaware of promotions being offered by the front desk and were rude and unpleasant when asked about them. Would not stay here again. Lisateave

Considering the room rate was over $500/night we had expected something lager than a monk's cell. Was also not pleased to find on arrival that the hotel imposed an additional $25/night resort fee that was not part of the of the Hotel.com charge. We would not go back.

Pros: Common areas were nicely decorated and comfortable. Nice rooftop pool (not quite as big as pictures suggest but it never is!) and great pool staff. Friendly and helpful front desk staff. Location is perfect. Cons: while the bed was comfortable my signature room was even smaller than anticipated and I really never wanted to be in the room. Layout […] was a bit awkward. Restaurant food was OK, but nothing special. Waited two mornings to get service in the restaurant for breakfast before giving up and trying elsewhere. Lisateave

Our room was located next to the bar (which operated until the wee hours of the morning). The noise from the bar became louder each night - the final straw was the piano player (who played on our last night of our stay at the Gale). The staff (in the same spirit of the patrons) could be heard closing the bar (4:40 a.m.) Thin walls and close proximity […] to the bar did not make for sound sleep. Since we were told upon check in that we had the last room with a Queen sized bed, we were stuck for the duration - in spite of the fact we had booked well in advance. In addition the cable was out on the HDTV for about a third of our visit. We were continually told it would be repaired in "just a few minutes". Upon checking out we were told that there was nothing that they could do (in the form of compensation). We were advised that if we had called the desk about the noise that they could have relocated us (2:00 in the a.m. to a room without a queen), or they could have told the people in the bar to keep the volume down. In short there was nothing that could be done for us. Based on their stock responses they have obviously received similar complaints from other patrons. For the room rate we could have stayed at an equally nice (and quieter) hotel. Lisateave

The room was very stylish and modern but unbelievably tiny. A closet only big enough to hang a few shirts. Strange that there was a giant king-sized bed (it was supposed to be a queen) but no furniture like a chair or chest of drawers. Consequently we had to leave our clothes in our bags. Great bathroom. The Gale website advertises room service but […] it doesn't exist. The club below our room played loud music ALL night. We received random robot calls to our room phone, once at 3:30 am. Great rooftop pool. If you don't need much space and aren't bothered by the noise you might love this beautiful little hotel. The WONDERFUL staff made our experience tolerable. Lisateave

Gale South Beach is gorgeous! Great location, not too noisy, and a block away from the beach, but with a roof deck pool, why would you go to the beach. The Hotel has modern decor, and the staff is so very friendly, and seem to genuinely have a good time working there. While they did a tremendous job of maximizing space, and a massive flat screen in […] your room, it is the prefect spot for couples. When sharing space with families in the common areas that have children, it can get a bit dicey. The pool is neither large or deep, which makes it a bit uncomfortable when children are playing and running around, and slipping. As a childless customer, myself and my significant other found it perfect. Lisateave

Beautifully modernized boutique hotel. Recalls the roaring 20's while providing modern amenities - big screen TV, internet, great shower.

We got a discount rate on the room so we rolled the dice... should have paid more. The room was small but very nice and clean. Unfortunately they don't tell you there is a $25 resort fee, and heaven forbid you have a car and get hit with a $37 fee every time the valet picks up your car. Why valet? Because there is no parking lot that you can use to […] manually park. Save your money and don't rent a car, everything in South Beach is within walking distance anyways. The roof top pool is very nice with a glass-looking surface, but don't be fooled by the picturesque advertisement that makes it look like the ocean is at your fingertips. It's still 2 blocks away. The front desk employees are not kind at all, it seemed they had been working overtime on a daily basis and just didn't care about the guests. The restaurant manager was a complete pig, rude as they come, ordering the wait staff around and intentionally embarrassing them, not to mention when my wife and I just wanted a coffee for breakfast and passed on the $25 omelet, he turned into a complete jerk to us as well. Overall it's decent, but better look at a bigger hotel with a better restaurant, kinder staff, and closer to the beach. Lisateave

The hotel is clean and has been updated. Parking is not included, but there is a lot behind the hotel where you can park for $25 per day. $15 of the $25 service fee can be used for breakfast.

Very nice update on the Art Deco boutique hotel. Room had excellent features such as great TV that you can operate with your iPhone, electronic do not disturb, wireless key fob, clothes steamer, etc., but room was very small with limited closet. hardwood floors in the halls look great, but are noisy. Disco pounds on weekends until 3 AM. Bar in the back […] is awesome. No Parking on site (you can valet for $37 per day). Maid service did not come one day, even after requested at the front desk. They did however, deduct the resort fee for one day as result. Very upscale and has a lot of personality compared to other places. Great rooftop pool and bar. Too bad it is not on Ocean Dr. Lisateave

Checked in on Tuesday the 15th of Jan for a single night. While checking in I was informed of a mandatory $25/day "resort fee". I've paid resort fees before, but $25 is on the high end. I had expected no resort fee given its distance from Ocean Drive and the fact that it is a pretty nice hotel overall. As with most Miami Beach hotels, the rate you pay […] online is NOT the rate you will pay in the end. That being said, the rooms are pretty nice. Nicely decorated, big TV, comfy bed, etc. Only problem with the room was that the handle in the shower was broken. It took fifteen minutes to figure out how to get it to the right temperature. Before booking, make sure you tack on the additional $25-$60 ($35 valet with no easy alternative options) in your head to get the real cost of your stay. The Gale is worth it for a night out, but if you're looking for a Miami-on-the-beach vacation save up a bit more money and go somewhere comparable on the water. Lisateave

The hotel is relatively small and fairly intimate. It is situated on Collins Avenue, South Beach is the area to be. The fabulous South Beach itself is just across the road and 150 metres away.

Gale is a centrally located hotel close to the beach (but not on the beach) and close to the the very popular Lincoln rd. The hotel is small, but very clean and has got a nice design.
