Entrance is thru a restroom Front desk staff is super nice Rooms are kind of small Minimal outlets, don’t plan on charging more than one thing at a time or bring a splitter One plug for two lamps between beds. Had to unplug one lamp to plug in phone. Only 3 plugs in entire bedroom area plus one in bathroom Bathroom is , maybe 20 square feet but that includes the door that opens into the sink & cabinet. The toilet is crammed between sink and shower. Shower is spacious. Probably nicest thing in the room but it definitely could be cleaner. I scraped off mildew with my fingernail. Used a washcloth and hand soap to clean the rest of the walls. Desk is 18” deep and 36” wide. First floor sounds like it is over the kitchen Loud until at least midnight Construction on a building next door is VERY loud A loud bird outside our window TV had no main channel. Had to sign into my own account to watch something Lost OEM TV remote left our room with a terrible RCA replacement Small fridge packed with hotel stuff ( expensive ), no room for your own. Had to take their stuff out. Flight bottles of tequila and other liquor sitting in desk. If you have kids, put them in the safe in the closet. $34 a day resort fee and there is nothing here. The fee is usable at a Sister property 2 or 3 blocks away. I don’t remember seeing the resort fee online. There is nothing at this location. No gym, pool, parking, drink machine. I went to 7-11 a block away for drinks and a few snacks. It sucked, too.

The location was truly excellent. If location and accessibility are your top priorities, this is definitely a place you can stay. The rooms were clean, and the beds were comfortable. We had a smooth check-in and overall stay. The staff was attentive and helpful enough.

When I first arrived at the property, I was informed that I needed to pay an additional $102 in order to access my room. The staff called this fee a resort fee, but I was very confused and was not expecting to pay any additional fees because I booked a package deal through Expedia. I ended up having to pay the fee, or I would have been stranded without a place to sleep for the night. I am not sure who to blame for this, either Exedia didn't communicate to me this valuable information or the hotel made it up. Nevertheless, I am not sure why the hotel would be charging a resort fee when its location is far from a resort. They do not include breakfast, they do not have a gym, and they do not have a pool. They only offer a bed to sleep in and a shower to wash off.

It was our first visit at the Chelsea Hotel at South Beach Miami. We have stayed many times at various hotels before and after joining cruise ships. This hotel was located right in the heart of South Beach and the staff were so friendly and helpful. Special mention of the wonderful front desk lady Isabella and manager Maurizio who are both passionate to please their guests. Will definitely stay there every time we visit Miami South Beach. Great Service

Decent hotel in an excellent location

Location, location, location. Hotel had an excellent cuban restaurant on premises, easy walk to the main South Beach area, and room was fairly clean. Some sticky shelves and spaces. I would stay there again to be in the tick of it
