The Kent Hotel

Great location and very modern interior. Elevator was being renovated so had to carry suitcases up to our room. Assistance was offered and resort fees waived so no problem. Would definitely recommend this hotel.

This is a nice hotel which is clearly starting to undergo refurbishment (the whole of the second floor was closed off for this reason) and, in places, it could do with this. The room was good... you're just off South Beach so the room is probably smaller than you would get in other hotels further away... it was tastefully furnished and there was enough room with our bags on the floor. The AC didn't seem to be too effective; because of the design of the room, the curtain hangs over it so put something heavy on top of it to move the curtain out of the way and then it is more effective! Wifi also kept dropping out / not working which was a little annoying as we were trying to book other things. The beds were super comfortable which was a great plus too. The hotel is well located just steps away from Ocean Drive, but far enough away not to hear the music. There are some great places to eat / bars on Washington too.

The hotel itself was very clean and well appointed. Staff very friendly and very helpful. There is a bar/restaurant attached. The food is excellent, the service so so. For example the waitress spilt a whole glass of coke over my wife and simply said oops sorry. There was no big apology or concern, something I would have expected - I was tempted to mention this, to se if it could be reflected in the bill, but the food was so good we let it go. Valet parking was $35, good value if you are not going anywhere as parking nearby costs $20 per 5 hours. We arrived at 3pm and left the following midday so saved a fair amount. There is virtually no street parking. Whilst you can park in the street, the spaces are at a premium, people will whip in very quickly while you park like and Englishman (like I do!), the only downside to the stay was the air con, somewhat noisy. But we were so tired after a night out that we slept through it. Would have stayed another night if they had the room. Re omnended for value and comfort.

Good hotel in a great location.

This was a very slick property. The inside was even nicer than the exterior. The rooms were very clean, comfortable and well designed. In addition, the rate I received was far better than anything you’d expect in that area. I would stay here anytime I have to be in this part of Miami Beach.
