One of the room windows was facing the hotel 2 meters away, the other small one was facing the parking lot (it was said that this is generally the case, the suites are facing the road). The lady at the reception explained the rules at length during check-in (we said enough, she didn't listen). There is no water in the room. They said you can get it from Fitness. We asked for half an hour flexibility for checkout, but it was not accepted. Breakfast is reasonable for the price. IN SUMMARY, THE PRICE WAS HIGH ACCORDING TO THESE FEATURES.

Lovely boutique hotel at a quieter end of Ocean Drive South Beach. We enjoyed the onsite restaurant in all respects save one, the morning coffee tended towards lukewarm. The front desk especially Patricia and all the staff never failed to help us in any way we needed. The rooftop pool was a special treat for us. We will definitely stay at the Leslie during any future travel to South Beach!

I have to be honest I was hoping for more. The hotel itself was overpowered with the smell of air freshener I think to hide the mold smell that promptly hit our nose when we entered the rooms. They must know because there were what looked like air purifiers in the basement workout facility, which was nothing to brag about and again couldn’t really stand the smell. Another issue, I paid an extra $49 per day for free breakfast, and this did not include most of the delicious breakfast items on the menu! I had to pay extra for those.. I mean it would have been cheaper for me just to buy breakfast every morning. The staff was trying, but my husband said that the lady at the front desk was rude to him. I will definitely opt for a hotel without the smell of mildew next time, I left feeling dissatisfied and definitely that I didn’t get my $1500 worth for our 3 day stay. I prepaid so there was nothing I could do about it. I think 8.8 stars was very misleading

The hotel smelled like mildew and bleach. The room and bathroom were poorly lit. We were put in a room with a bathroom with dark gray walls and no window. The phone was broken. The main room had drapes all around most of it to cover windows. The pool area was in disrepair. There was a yellow warning tape blocking it. The hot tub was broken. The pace is horrible and itt was expensive due to Art Miami. Do not stay there unless you have to!

Beautiful Art Deco hotel on Ocean Drive
We had so much fun in Miami and really enjoyed our stay at Hotel Leslie. Hotel is located on the northern end of the South Beach “strip” so you are super close to all the action but just far enough that it isn’t thumping music all night long. Across the street is a playground and an awesome park that runs all the way up and down the beach. You can rent bikes cheaply and easily and bike south to the lighthouse or north all the way to bar harbor. Just past the park is the free public beach with lifeguards, snack shacks and people selling drinks from their portable coolers. The hotel will provide you with beach towels, chairs and an umbrella if needed. The hotel building is a super charming Art Deco building from the 1920’s with a lovely cafe out front. Cafe is open for breakfast, lunch and dinner and stays open late (about midnight or so). Staff of hotel and cafe are super nice and accommodating. The rooftop pool is beautiful with an amazing view of the beach and has shaded couches and tables/chairs for relaxing. The room was on the small side but that is normal for these older buildings. The decor was glam chic and the beds were very comfortable. Towels and linens were very high quality. My only suggestions for improvement would be: a dresser instead of the table (there is a closet with shelves), usb outlets, and the ability to order food and drinks from the restaurant at the pool.

Terrible experience won't stay here again.. They told me I had to park in garage at 12 st. It was full.. so I had to go to 16 st. And park.. After checking in...we start walking and next hotel down they have valet parking. And I ask your front desk and they told me no valet. And the lady was very rude at front desk.. also we get a room right next to elevator noise all night long cuz everyone knows everyone talks in front of elevators. LoL. So we check out .. To many nice places to be treated like that..
