Catalina Hotel & Beach Club

Never sólo yo Catalina Hotel & Beach Club:

Location

Employed, Very small room No clean

disapointed

I usually enjoy this hotel an any other from their group, but i will not use the South Beach group anymore.

My car was damaged while under the care of their valet service. The car presented in a way that would hide the damages from us when it was time to pick it up.

no coffe, no parking

clean

no parking

The hotel was in a good location and included beach chairs with the rooms.

There was loud music playing at the restaurant next door 24 hours a day, the staff was disorganized and assigned us a room that already had people staying in it. The rooms keys NEVER worked, we had to get new keys at least 7 times during our stay. The rooms were tiny and the ac didn't seem to work. There wasn't a bathroom fan so it got muggy in the room after every shower. There is no easy way to get ice at all. It was just very disorganized and inconvenient.

It is part of the group of hotels that share a shuttle bus to the airport, which then it is free for the guests. However be aware that it is very random and migth not turn up at all (and runs every hour), and teh fact that leaves at o'clcock only means that's the time arrives to the first hotel (if you are in teh last one migth arrive 30 mins late)

You migth end up in any of the hotels, not much control there. The room I was staying at the Dorset was very very dark, taky decoration. It is almost being inside a "nigth club", but one of the cheap ones. Music starts very loud quite early in the evening, not good for resting before going out. the happy hour is only of very cheap alcohol that you'd better stay away from. When i checked in they made a mistake a gave me a room with was already occupied. Staff is rude and unprofesional. there arelots of better hotel offers in south beach...

Close to ocean drive and Lincoln Road & Value for money.

My first night on the first floor by the bar was horrible. After they moved me to the third floor I enjoyed my stayed, but I had already lost one night of sleep.

The first night I was given a room on the first floor by the bar. It was horrible. I don´t understand how they even have rooms there with loud music, and people playing pool and chatting until very late. Practically next to your bed. We coudn´t sleep. Also everytime someone flushed the toilet upstears there was this loud noise coming from the bathroom that was really annoying.

Staff courtesy, good location (close to the beach and main avenues), beautiful art d'eco design, facilities.
