We spent 5 nights at the Winterhaven after hectic New York; what a welcome change from the hustle and bustle of a big city. Although the hotel is non-smoking, we were given a rooftop room which was perfect, ocean views from the outside and a designated smoking area for my significant other. Miami is all about the beach, clean, warm... more

I stayed at Winterhaven from June 11- June 16 and I thought it was fabulous! Once you understand that in Miami most hotel rooms are GOING TO BE SMALL due to the period in which they were built, you will have a great experience. Everyone complains about how small the rooms are, but how much room do you really need?... more

I recently stayed at the winterhaven from 08/14-08/18/08. I read the reviews about this hotel and still booked it anyway. I should have listened. Not that it was a total dump, but I should have stayed at another hotel. The bar was cute, the lobby was clean, the location was great, but the room was small, the water pressure was... more

Stayed at the Winterhaven July 7-9. This was our first time in Miami Beach. The hotel was very clean and priced very nicely. I have nothing bad to say about the hotel, but have no desire to go back to Miami. Nice hotel for the money. more

Went June 6-10, 2008...Came from NY and PA.....Though this place was in a great location. i hated the size of the room. We did get a discounted price so the other rooms may be a lil larger, but not that much. the batrhoom was awfull. I had to wear flip flops in the shower. We asked them the change the... more

Probably, the worst hotel on the Ocean drive. All other hotels feature sidewalk cafe/restaurant and a terrace, for this one however such thing is not possible since visitors would observe a public beach restroom from their tables. Inside, there are a lots of things that would remind you about a cheap motel these are lobby, hallways and elevators are old... more

We respect the opinions of our valued guests however we do not appreciate those that are without merit. This medium is used to accommodate constructive criticisms which will allow readers and potential guests a more informed method in making decisions to visit the property. While other hotels invest their time in creating side walk cafes we have decided against that....

1/1 found this review helpful

June 2008, Thu thru Mon. I was uneasy when husband booked this as old beach hotels often dirty & sandy; but he wanted vintage S. Beach experience. I must say the hotel in general & room specifically were NICER THAN EXPECTED & were clean. The rm pics don't do them justice - there is decent hotel grade furniture, nothing was... more

I stayed in this hotel between May 17-21, 2008 with a group of 8 friends (men and women all in our 20's). This hotel is great. I really can't think of any complaints. Location: Perfect, right on Ocean Drive and literally right across the street from the beach. There is a patio infront of the hotel which is great for... more

From the very beginning, the staff went out of their way to be helpful, by putting us in rooms next to each other. Thanks Jorge! I was concerned about noise, after reading other reviews, but we were of the 4th floor on the alley side, and never heard a thing. It is on the quiet end of Ocean Drive, so... more
