Hotels charge an “urban fee” so that they can lie about their advertised price. An “urban fee” is another name for a hotel resort fee. A resort fee is the way for the hotel to hide part of their advertised price.

Where I was located was not walkable to anything. My balcony view was not how it was described on the website. They have zero microwaves on this entire property. The staff did not answer the phone that much. I had to actually walk downstairs for the price you paid the rooms aren’t all of that. They’re not that big. The bathroom wasn’t the cleanest, your essentially pigeon hold into paying for the in-house valet because there is absolutely nowhere to park within a five minute walking radius from the hotel. For what it’s worth I should have just got me a hotel actually on Ocean Drive because for whatyou pay it’s not that great . I guess you’re paying for location but nothing is even around walking distance too much for you to really enjoy so you have to either Uber or drive. I won’t ever be coming back.

Thank you for your feedback we do greatly appreciate it. The hotel is fairly centrally located in the city which makes it easy enough to be 10/15 minutes ride share service/taxi to most popular locations within the city such as South Beach, Brickell, Design District & Wynwood. Bayside Marketplace, Kaseya Center, Adrienne Arsht, Frost Science, Art Perez are within 10 minutes walking distance which offer some great attractions, restaurants & shopping.

Wow, wow, wow! We loved everything about our stay at this hotel. The staff in particular were fantastic, kind and helpful. Ricardo is a gem, along with everyone else we encountered there. We loved the size of the room, the view, lovely fitness centre and sauna/steam rooms. Pool and hot tubs were great as well, and lots of little lounge areas outside to enjoy the view even if you don't have your own room balcony. Will stay again, we loved it!

I was extremely disappointed in this property! Upon check in I was given a dirty room and then they tried to give me another one to move me into! I then had to go all the way back to the front desk for a resolve after an extremely long flight! Room service never answers and when I finally placed an order with the front desk attendant they got it wrong! Not to mention I was overcharged! $61 for guac and chicken tenders and fries😒?? Like be so for real! the only thing good about this hotel is the location! It was close to everything. Honorable mention, Steven the bellhop supervisor ! He was really the only helpful staff member and he definitely went above and beyond for us ! Steven is the only reason this place gets 1 star because honestly I would give it zero! 👎

It is a great location to explore the museums and such downtown. The valet is easy and the view is great. The front desk at check in wasn’t super informative that one of the main restaurants was not open nor was the pool bar. The one place to eat had poor service. Three people were standing around with only one person taking orders. It took over 20 minutes to put our order in. There wasn’t much in the way of hot water. But the room was comfortable!

Given the downtown location, noise is inevitable, for which the design of the hotel has to accommodate and mitigate. I found the noise created by the adjacent highway to be excessive and constant, (day and night). The use of so much glass and aluminum in the finish of the rooms, without the ability to block out the lights at night, makes the stay less than ideal and not restful.

Everything was amazing. Although I do have some recommendations to fix for future guests. The bed was tented and not the most comfortable and too low to the floor and room service is until 10 pm only which means if you’re hungry after 10 pm you will either need to go get the food or order through Uber eats etc. Everything else was excellent. And the experience one of a kind. The pool has heaters which was amazing because it was a little cold out. And bar by the pool has amazing food and drinks. I would definitely recommend.

Poor service from check in until checkout. Bars not open when they should’ve been according to posted hours, in room TV wouldn’t work half the time. Front desk/room service would take 10 min to answer when calling from the room phone.

We chose the Gabriel Miami for the location and the fact that it was a Hilton property which we always associate with high quality. The front desk staff was very nice and welcoming; however the room was disappointing with "eco-friendly" lighting features that did not work properly and we discovered that there was only 1 towel left in the room for use. We further discovered that there was just 1 half used roll of toilet paper left for us and we never got any housekeeping service in the 2 days we were there which was supposed to be included. I did communicate this to the front desk staff as we were leaving and they acknowledged that is was unacceptable and offered us some Hilton points. All in all I'd have to rate it as an underwhelming hotel experience.
