I also observed heavy footsteps from above and the constant creaking of the nearby stairwell door opening and closing next to my room. I was on the second floor at the end of the hall, so I did not hear noise from next door but there was a lot of noise from outside during the day, and the sounds of doors slamming were especially loud and woke me up early. In all, I thought the room was quirky, well-sized, and comfortable, but noisy. It's something to keep in mind if you're opting for a balcony as an intimate, romantic extra.

Windows from the room next door looked directly onto my balcony and it's easy to make eye contact if someone is passing by and the shades aren't closed. The only odd part was the lack of privacy.

Book the Kimpton Surfcomber Hotel starting at $150 per night.But for Kimpton fans and those wanting a fun, lively, and affordable stay, it's a solid South Beach option. So, if you're looking for a quiet, intimate retreat, this is not the best fit. Housed in is a historic art deco gem, the building's age gives way to noise bleed that I observed often even in a mid-tier room. However you should know it's not the quietest hotel, even if you stay away from Collins Avenue. The cheapest standard King Deluxe Room faces the city or interior and starts at $150 in low summer season or about $200 in peak season. I spent the night in an Oceanfront King Premier Room with Balcony, comped for review purposes but starts around $230 per night in low season, and rises to $350 at busier times. This is somewhere to stay when you want to feel the buzz of South Beach, but without the in-your-face pulse of the club scene, or inflated prices of luxury five-star hotels down the street. I spotted a few families during my one-night stay, but the crowd felt predominantly under 40.Īs such, the vibe is a bit like a relaxed house party, though it's never overly raucous. It's the kind of place groups of friends come for a girls' getaway, bachelor or bachelorette gathering, or couples' weekend. The decor is bright, bold, and eclectic with beachy rooms spread between two buildings that lead out to a central courtyard and pool, all at budget-friendly rates.
