5.8/10

I had an overall decent stay at Whitelaw Hotel, with a prime location just a block away from Ocean Drive that really made exploring South Beach easy. The staff was friendly and accommodating, which added a nice touch to my experience. However, I ran into an issue when the blankets were not available in the room, which led to a rather uncomfortable night. The hotel definitely has some potential with its vibrant atmosphere and great service, but a few hiccups dampened the experience.

Rooms

The room was comfortable but lacked blankets, which made the night challenging. There were issues with the decor not matching the expectations set by the photos.

My stay at the Whitelaw Hotel was enjoyable, with very nice service that made me feel welcome. The location was ideal, just a short walk from the beach and all the lively attractions South Beach has to offer. However, the noise level in the room was a bit high at points due to thin walls, which affected my overall experience. 🚶‍♀️🥂

The daily happy hour was a wonderful touch for mingling and relaxing after a day out, even though I didn’t participate myself this time. I appreciated the availability of complimentary beach towels, which made my beach trips easier.

I had mixed feelings about my stay at the Whitelaw Hotel. The location was fantastic, just a block from the beach, which was a big plus. However, I faced issues with some staff interactions, particularly with the manager, ROSS, who was not very helpful or empathetic when I raised concerns about noise. Overall, the atmosphere was lively and the happy hour was a great benefit, but the service and some room conditions left much to be desired.

6.0/10

While the hotel's location is fantastic, just a block from the beach, my overall experience was marred by poor service and numerous issues during my stay. I faced rude treatment from management, particularly from ROSS, who showed no empathy when I addressed my complaints. The amenities were lacking, with thin walls and no hot water, making my stay quite uncomfortable.

Rooms

5.0

The room was clean enough but poorly designed. I struggled with thin walls that allowed me to hear everything next door. Plus, there was no hot water during my entire stay, which was the worst part.

Service

The hotel's location is its saving grace. It’s conveniently located just a block from the beach and close to many shops and restaurants, which I appreciated.

Dining

5.0

I didn't have a good experience with the dining options. There wasn't much in the way of breakfast besides some assorted muffins, and the welcome drink was hardly appealing.

Facilities

5.0

The facilities were lacking. The lobby was inviting, but the rooms needed maintenance, and I found the absence of basic amenities like vending machines or even hot water quite frustrating.
