I gave the room 3 stars because the bathroom is ridiculously small in the king-size room When you sit on the toilet, your knees are touching the door and I’m only 5’2″ The hotel is 15 minutes from the airport

a straight shot Very beautiful inside and there is a Starbucks and a bistro in the lobby It was great for my business trip with the exception of the bathroom

Allen Tackett

Amazing hotel for the price Friendly and professional staff, healthy breakfast options, nice (standard) Courtyard rooms, and terrific location Thoughtful details like a spacious seating area with semi-private booths with power outlets

For some elite status levels, they offer deals on self parking and breakfast creditsWe had stayed at the Aloft Coral Gables before and didn’t like anything about it I’ll write a separate review on that, but the room at Aloft was humid and gloomy; the staff was largely unhelpful and not customer-friendly; I didn’t care for the management either Or the food The courtyard is a no brainer at this price point for Coral Gables

Hoan Nguyen

I checked out the facility on Google and it’s 4 stars hotel, however, when I got there I was so disappointed The hallway to our room smell so bad that my 4 years old almost threw up We supposed to stay there for 3 night but the hallway and the carpet in our room smell so bad that we had to cancel 2 nights and I glad I did

We checked in at 3PM, and came back at midnight Their parking lot is flood, the water rises up to our ankles, not to mention their was NO water in the shower, I called down to help desk to report the issue, the front desk lady (sorry I’m not sure about her name but I think it was Isabella) , said it was too late to send out the service technician, we have to go down to do the paperwork to check out and then get a new room How sad right, so they think that we were there for the beds, my husband & my son already tire & fell sleep so I can’t drag them down to the lobby Was that my fault when we all tired? No, how about people flew in late and have to experience what we did? No water for shower? Didn’t they have to check all that before our arrival or checked in? Why we have to go through the hassle when a 4 stars hotel didn’t do what they supposed to? Very sad for a good reputation of Marriott

Oscar Scheepstra

Great place to stay! The hotel is well-located, with a Publix right across the street The front desk staff is amazing – super polite, helpful and fun The room good

The beds are a bit too soft – I felt like I was sleeping over a bunch of blankets, rather than a mattress The shower did not have much water pressure, though – it felt more like a drizzle I had some noisy neighbors for one night, but other than that the room was pretty quiet Plenty of outlets to charge my gear as well – and two spacious desks Not bad at all

Crys Jack

I had the pleasure of staying here for an extended period of time and I really enjoyed it The rooms are clean and spacious, the pool is nice and quiet and the location is perfect for a drive to the beach and great meal afterwards as Miracle Mile is within a 5 min walk Veronica at the front desk was very helpful, always greeted guest with a smile and offered the best restaurant recommendations!!Had to shout her out because her dedication stood out, her positivity is radiant, shes a real asset to the company

Nowadays when you chose a place to stay you can only hope to encounter people who truly care

Steph

This hotel is fantastic It was clean, felt safe, and was located in a very convenient area just across from the publix and walking distance from many shops and restaurants we planned to visit The pool was beautiful and VERY well-kept, and both times we were up there we were the only people there

It was a wonderful place to relax The staff were prompt and helpful, although it did take a couple phone calls to reach the front desk a couple times and there didn’t seem to be anywhere to fill our water bottles? At least not that any staff was aware of Other than that, we really enjoyed our stay here and would totally come back Big shoutout to the valet staff but especially the older man who seemed to be working a 24/7 shift — he was SO kind and helpful and really made us feel special to be there!

David Dobbin

Do not stay at this hotelIt’s the worst Hilton I have stayed at in ten years Let me start with my room

The balcony door won’t stay closed because the whole locking mechanism is rusted beyond repairNever mind, we’ll just go downstairs for dinner and a drink Nope The hotel has 508 rooms and no restaurant It’s the pandemic was the explanation No, it’s really poor management that can’t retain staff because they treat them so poorlyBut you can eat in the bar I got an $1800 Cuban sandwich that wasn’t edible I complained to the waiter, and then the bar manager who didn’t apologize or offer a replacement She shrugged and walked awayBeyond the lack of food, the hotel has jacked up the prices of drinks A glass of wine is $1700 The wine costs less than $1500 for a bottle They know you can’t go anywhere nearby and do they are happy to gouge their guestsSkip the wine and have a draft beer to beat the heat No, the draft system has been broken for 10 days now But, they explained, it’s sure to be fixed sometime soon(ish)I repeat, do not stay at this hotel

Michael Bolado

We were pleasantly surprised with what we received The staff were amazingly nice and helpful The hotel is great for the price you pay

We got to check-in early without being charged I know, it sounds like everyone should expect that but I don’t except anything more than what it states in the contract This facility went above and beyond for us I would highly recommend it and hope everyone receives the great service that we did Thank you for making our honeymoon unforgettable

Christine Fabbro

We made a brief overnight stay here on a Friday night before cruising It’s a beautiful hotel with a lovely pool on site It has a restaurant, convenience store, and coffee shop on site

It is also near other shopping and restaurants and very conveniently located to the airport with a free shuttle service The suite we stayed in had a lovely room and bathroom with a separate living room, television and balcony overlooking the pool The hotel is reasonably priced and staff was warm and welcoming

Dominique Graham

I won’t pretend to be a hotel connoisseur or anything but this stay was pretty bad Sure it’s a nice looking facility but if the bar is so low that isn’t outside the norm, then I don’t know what I’m doing in life1

) No complimentary breakfast Didn’t even ask for the price Nickel and diming isn’t my style2) Room was not cleaned or maintained ONE time in my 4 day stay3) Surprise $200 deposit at time of payment I understand a deposit, but be transparent4) Couldn’t get laundry services done And after asking several times when it’s going to be back available, get told that the cut off has already passed You would think that information would’ve been included when I was, you know, asking about itOverall, it was less than a sub par experience for a “four star” hotel I’ve had far better interactions and experiences at 2 star Extended Stay and Comfort Inns First time/last time for me thanks

Angie Nash

I am in Miami pretty often because I fly back and forth to Bahamas often and usually stay at a different Hilton but decided to try this DoubleTree because it was next to a mall and lots of restaurants and still very close to airport I was surprised how nice this hotel was The room was very nice and clean

I even ordered roomService breakfast before I had to head to airport It was exactly on time The lady was very sweet and professional when she delivered and my breakfast was fantastic My coffee was Starbucks which I loved! I have decided to stay at this hotel from now on when I fly in and out 😊

Josh Fiallo

We were absolutely gouged for a breakfast that would easily be topped by most Hampton Inns After a mandatory $7 tip—despite being greeted with an annoyed employee, seating ourselves and serving ourselves—the price was $50 I’m annoyed to pay it even with a $30 F&B credit being taken off for being a Hilton Diamond member

Besides this, the property was elegant and clean, especially for the price point We loved the terrace especially That said, the rude non-service at breakfast (we sat ourselves, left for the cold buffet and returned to a $50 check sitting in the middle of our table) will probably keep us from returning, just because it was a bit insulting, really Others who we passed complaining to the front desk about breakfast likely feel the same The rest of the staff, especially those at the front desk, were incredibly kind and helpful

Kelsey Woodworth

Really great experience at Thesis for a family wedding! Clean, comfortable rooms with accommodating and friendly staff The restaurant is excellent and so is the service I only gave this 4/5 stars because the pool area wasn’t super comfortable – it’s completely shaded in the afternoon and located on the 3rd floor amid a total wind tunnel

Vipanj Patel

Highly recommend this hotel Very clean, the restaurants are fantastic and the amenities are very nice The pool and outdoor area on the 3rd floor, along the the live band, are great for hanging out and having drinks

The 2 restaurants are world class, with unique and tasty dishes and a nice bar Definitely stay here if you get a chance!

JA D

UM, August parent price gouging rates are $500+ per night (because UM starts) plus $35 to park in the next-door structure After parking, the way back to the hotel lobby is not marked at all, so it takes a while to learn the tricky walking route back to the hotel They charge for the Continental breakfast and $3

50 for lobby coffee They are very tight with the towels The card keys for the elevators do not work correctly, and two hands are often needed The elevators are slow for a 2021 buildingI had difficulty sleeping because all the rooms have very loud individual AC units inside We turned ours off at night but could still hear the truck-like AC noise from the room next to us all night long, on and off and on All the rooms have a very odd large picture of 5-girls white bathing suited bums out with their heads into white flowering oleander bushes This was strangeThe shower handle is very sharp and sticks out too far inside and outside the shower, so you might hit it with your elbow or arm, which hurts very badly The bed frame corners are also very sharp, so you will bruise or cut your leg going to the bathroom in the dark The chemical fragrance blasted in the hallways every day is intense and not necessary The windows are screwed shut, and no balconies Other than all that, it was good

Remember to use ʜoᴛᴇʟʙᴏʟʟʏᴄᴏm when booking any room They compare countless hotel sites and typically will have rooms a lot cheaper compared to others! Thank me later on! This hotel is one of the most well known in this area

I’ve been staying here for years If you stay for a few nights you won’t regret itA 20 something year old hotel with open spaces and water features this property is large, clean, and relaxing The room was perfect for our 1st night after our long plane ride It was comfortable and quiet I hardly ever heard another person and we arrived in the middle of spring break We will come again if we travel this way again

Daniel Rocha

Hotel staff is super friendly and helpful Efficient in cleaning the rooms and help at the conference rooms as well The room although great and clean, had a weird layout in the bathroom making the shower stall very small, and the height of the shower very low

The location is great Walking distance from the mais street in the grove Lots of things to do around and close to the water front too

Channa Borman

Beautifully appointed rooms, elegant lobby, delicious food at the restaurant, great service from front desk staff But maybe most fun feature was the hospitality of the bellman Steven who gave us great restaurant recommendations when he took our luggage to the room and was hilarious in his descriptions of the options Great choice

Can’t go wrong here

The hotel itself is beautifully renovated I am someone that is all about the aesthetics especially when a certain price point is reach per night The room was lovely with the spiral stairwell that adjoins a loft

Quite honestly, I feel the two could have been swapped But it’s understandable for servicing purposesYou can definitely hear conversations taking place in the hallway as well as what is going on outdoors This can be disturbing if you turn in early While scoping out the loft upstairs, I was quite surprised to see the microwave stacked on top of the small refrigerator They can do better than this Again, for the price per night, you would expect more I truly feel we were overcharged But maybe is the locale and surrounding amenities that brought about that price pointRoom 547!

stuart gradess

Almost all reviews comment on the physical aspects of a Hotel We celebrated a wedding anniversary knowing how clean and comfortable the Colonnade is, how great the location, all of the things that everybody asks about Well this review is a little different because it is just about the people who work there

We are neither rock stars nor millionaires and do not expect special treatment But that is exactly what we received from the Parking Valets, House Keeping staff, and especially the Front Desk Reception Staff: Ross, Adriana, Hayden, Isabella, Audrey and Mia Sincerely gracious, warm, attentive, like your closest best friend are the adjectives I would use to describe them all They, and not the thread count of the bed sheets, are what makes the Colonnade a truly great place in which to stay When you meet people who are genuinely kind, attentive, and eager to please it is like winning the hotel lottery My wife and I consider ourselves winners

Kia Graham

My stay at this hotel was horrible! You have take two elevators to get to the room not to mention the parking each time you leave the hotel you have to payThey don’t clean the room on a daily basis We have to ask for clean towels

No microwave to warm food The Receptionist at the front desk , who work on 5/12 night shift came to the room door accused us about noise , when there was no noise not even the TV was onThe noise was coming from the hallway I didn’t appreciate what he did We pay for the room and was not staying there for free I have always stayed at Marriott Hotels and never had this experienceI will not stay at this Hotel in the future

Hotel was nice, pool was amazing Great music played the entire time We all felt the pool closed to early and bar and food service weren’t available on Monday and Tuesday and we didn’t know that when we booked

The location was perfect, everything was so close to us Valet was awesome and never a wait for the vehicle and we came and went a lot while we stayed there they never got irritated at us and always on time Took one star because of pool closing early and no drinks or food for 2 days of our trip

Sonia Bravo

My first time in this hotel I liked it The suite was very comfortable, AC super

not very often you see central AC in hotel’s room That’s one of my prioritiesvery Convenient to the places I wanted to go Staff was super, special kudos to the valet parking employees, very organized , super friendly and courteous and the app they have to request your car from your phone is awesome I definitely will come back again from now on when visit Miami

Erica Faughn

Roof top pool was amazing It had two jumbo screens, a bar, ample space to get out of the sun Table tennis and a gym

The decor and vibe of the hotel was amazing The valet staff, front desk and even house keeping were all so nice and pleasant Plenty of near by restaurants to walk too or even deliver Should have taken more pictures these don’t do it justice

We attended a wedding at this beautiful hotel The hotel was amazing it was old but historic So much history at this hotel which was very cool

Everything there made you feel like you were experiencing a event from the 20’s As for attention the wedding it was also a great experience, as a groomsmen we had are own room to get ready in and they were very attentive to our needs The food was great and the room we had was amazing and historic and you could walk right outside to a huge I mean massive lighted pool This hotel is a most visit, next time I will have to get a room

Lorenzo Racana

Location and building are beautiful Pool is massive and is very nice Rooms are tidy, spacious and beautifully decorated

The Views from the rooms are great and you can see stretches of green trees and Miami’s skyscrapers Staff are very kind and welcoming and make you feel special Tennis courts are very easy to get to and the courts are free Gym is very large and has great equipment Overall a luxurious and excellent stay at the Biltmore hotel

Dawn T

Superb experience in a beautiful historic property! We drove out here for the Sunday Brunch while staying in Miami Beach last year, and were so impressed with it then that we decided to stay here this year for one night following our flight out before we drove down to the KeysWe took a red-eye flight out and arrived at the hotel around 7:45am, fully intending to just check our bags at the front desk and wander around until our cabana became available at 10am You can imagine our surprise when at 7:45am, they told us they had a room ready and we could actually check in! After little sleep on the overnight flight, it was so amazing to be able to go straight to our junior suite and lay down for a couple hours before going to the pool

The cabana experience was also very enjoyable The price was extremely reasonable (about half the cost of the average cabana in Miami Beach), and our attendant (unfortunately I don’t remember his name) was very courteous and checked on us often without being obtrusive By afternoon it had warmed up enough to go in the pool, which is gigantic and beautiful Even if a lot of other people are there, it doesn’t feel crowded thanks to it’s sheer size Also love the grand lobby area (and the mini aviary with the little finches was a delight for this bird enthusiast!)Overall we had an amazing timewish we would have spent more time here and less in the Keys Thank you to all staff who made our stay memorable!

Amelia Booth

My entire stay has been so pleasant from top to bottom, but I really want to commend Jocelyn (the bartender at the 2nd floor lounge) My boss and I pretty much posted up in the lounge every evening/night over the past week to get some work done Thankfully, Jocelyn was here every night and was such a pleasure

She is incredibly attentive and friendly Even when she was swamped, she never missed a beat The food was great and served quickly and the drinks were perfect Jocelyn is the type of employee I think any establishment would be lucky to have! Will definitely be staying here for my next work trip

Stayed here for a 24 hour work trip I spend over 100 nights a year on the road for work and let me tell you, Joscelyn, the bartender at the AC Lounge was by far the best bartender I’ve ever had ANYWHERE I’ve stayed She was extremely attentive, took time to have genuine conversation with her customers, and even had her own personal signature cocktail menu

And let me tell you, this girl knows how to make a good drink! She had me sample a few and they were all remarkable Seriously, the best bartender I’ve had ANYWHERE She CRUSHED it I’m in Miami 3-4 times a year for work and will only be staying at AC Dadeland from now

Terrible service No one bothers to help with your things, and no bell service to take your things to your rooms either Breakfast is nice but too pricey at 24 dollars

They also charge extra if you drink more coffee Rooms are big in size and look nice, but the toilet paper feels like it is made of sand paper Great location, almost inside a mall If you want to shop in a supermarket, you have to cross a street Overall, great place if you are not going to have breakfast here and bring your own toilet paper They allow deliveries straight to your room which is great

I just stayed here for a night while I got my son moved in to start his last year of college, I loved staying here and will be staying here from now on Staff was helpful and friendly, place was so clean, food was real good at the restaurant If the staff wasn’t so helpful and nice it would have been a totally different experience so I hope they get credit for their service

Thank you!

The Hilton lived up to my expectations and standards This was an experience not just a stay The food was amazing and fresh, even though I only eat breakfast

The room was clean, and they followed covid protocols, so I felt very safe I loved the sealed doors which indicated this room had been cleaned and covid protocols where followed The bathroom was spotless, the shower had great water pressure and safe from slips The room was big enough for my husband and myself, we sleep great but the only thing I struggled with was the pillows But I sleep on very expensive pillows at home Overall, I give this place a 10 out of 10 The staff was professional and provided excellent customer service

Nice modern Hilton in convenient area Stay was not good though Food services slow, messed up order on first morning and then didn’t deliver one of the meals at same meal

Restaurant out of a variety of food and one beer on tap Housekeeping on demand didn’t show up to either of the two rooms I had booked Needed fresh towels and front desk didn’t pick up the phone so we had to go downstairs 2x to ask for towels over a 90 minute period We took out our own garbage Not a Hilton service standard quality First time I had to write a review before checkout Very unfortunate I had write this

The hotel is conveniently located between two nice size malls, one directly across the street, with excellent retail and food optionsThe rooms was clean and nicely appointed Staff were friendly and attentive

We stayed in the Homewoods Suites section of the hotel There’s sufficient well lit parking The restaurant had very limited food offerings at the time of our stay Also, if you suffer from migraines, and are triggered by strong fragrances, request housekeeping does not utilize their air freshener in your room to avoid the trigger

Staff was above 5 stars! Since check in they were AWESOME! We got to the hotel earlier that we expected and they allow us to do early check in That gave us time to decorate the room with balloons to surprise our daughter for her FIU graduation Room was shining clean thanks to the early attention that they did do to us being earlier

Front desk was so kind and attentive! The restaurant OMG! The breakfast buffet and the breakfast crew are the BEST that I had in long time We enjoyed the pool area, the pool table and the convenience store 5 stars are too low score for this wonderful place

Ian Lewis

The customer service at the front desk was terribly disappointing During an interaction, I remained in line to be attended to and after the two guests ahead of me left, the two staff members (Gomez and a female representative), failed to acknowledge meI remained, the only guest in the area, standing there waiting

The female team member glanced at me before quickly returning to her computer Failing to either gesture or say “please hold,” I continued to wait until I eventually walked offI would hate to believe that this was a form of discrimination on the hotel’s part I reported the incident immediately to Hilton and am awaiting the outcome of the investigationBeautiful hotel tainted by the disgusting front desk service #DoBetter

Overall a great experience The rooms were a bit smaller than we expected, but it was okay for a one night stay before our cruise We did not spend a lot of time at the hotel, only a late night and left in the morning

It was about a $30 Lyft XL ride from the hotel to the cruise port, which was not bad at all, compared to the shuttle cost for 4 people The restaurants were definitely over priced for what you get, which I was a bit surprised by, especially since it’s an “airport” hotelWe did go during one of the coldest days of the year, so no one went swimming, but the pool did feel warm

Ben Morse

The good: Close to the airport, with a free shuttle every half hour It has shared amenities with its bigger Marriott hotel next door Clean, with a great, modern lobby and sports bar

Big rooms, and nice and quietThe not-so-good The rooms are looking tired The couch in my king room had a couple of stains – not the greatest welcome Hot water in the shower took up to 15 minutes to come through Reception sent a maintenance guy who just looked confused when it worked for him but not for me The bathrooms are tired looking tooIt’s a Courtyard Marriott – there’s a level of service that you get that means it’s always fine This particular venue however never gets better than that It’s also not convenient for any local amenities – a minimum ten minute walk to any other food providers means you’re at their mercy, or you need an uber

Marilyn Anderson

Rooms were comfortable & spacious The service at desk was okay, but I have charges I need to call about Food at Champions was very good, service good

However, no one cleaned our rooms & we had to ask for clean towels & washclothsOnly problem with location is the 4 hour drive one way Parking charges $25 per day Discount never applied

The customer service at this hotel is very poor I am a Marriott Ambassador and I use Marriott hotels for business and personal travel I booked a room for my employees and they were not allowed to stay at this hotel

On several occasions I book hotels and sign a document allow them to use my credit card for all charges and never had a problem My employees were treated very poorly and told they could not stay there I attempt to discuss with the manager over the phone and was told no they would not help I sent them to a Hampton inn (Hilton Brand ) and they were welcomed and taken care of Management here needs retraining on hospitality!

Brittany T

I stayed at the Marriott a couple weeks ago and paid $25 a day for valet parking, which was a spot in the metropolis parking garage My car got broken into and my airbags were stolen Both Marriott & Metropolis refused to pay for the damage even though it was kept in their parking garage

Nobody would own up to it and kept passing the buck This is SUPPOSED to be a secure garage since it has cameras and only residents have assess What am I paying for if my car isn’t even safe? Be aware and do not stay here I’ve stayed at several Marriott’s and have never had an issue until here
