I had a mixed experience at Pelican Hotel. The location is fantastic, right in the heart of South Beach, making it easy to enjoy the vibrant atmosphere and access the beautiful beach. On the downside, I encountered a few issues with reception staff who weren't very helpful in resolving my taxi situation. The unique room decor was a delight, though I did find the bathroom setup a bit odd. Overall, I enjoyed the charm of the hotel but faced some challenges with service and room amenities.

Though the hotel offered some nice amenities like beach chairs and free drinks, I missed having a tea/coffee facility in my room. It would have made my stay feel even more comfortable.

My stay at Pelican Hotel was a mixed bag. On one hand, I loved the prime location and the vibrant atmosphere of South Beach. However, the noise was pretty overwhelming, and the resort fees felt unfair given the hotel's limited amenities. Overall, I had a good time but there were definitely areas that could use improvement.

The hotel is right in the heart of South Beach, making it super easy to access the beach and local dining. However, the noise from the busy area was much louder compared to other places I've stayed, which was quite distracting at times.

The hotel offered limited facilities, which was disappointing considering the resort fee. There wasn't really a gym, and the need to request AC adjustments was annoying too. However, the beach access with chairs was a definite perk.

I had a nice stay at the Pelican Hotel. The location was fantastic, right in the heart of South Beach, just steps from the beach. though the area can get pretty noisy at night. The room was unique and comfortable, featuring a fun jungle theme with access to a lovely rooftop terrace. However, I did notice that some decor looked a bit worn, which might distract from the otherwise lovely ambiance.

My stay at the Pelican Hotel was enjoyable, thanks to its excellent location just across from the beach and the vibrant atmosphere of South Beach. the staff was incredibly friendly, offering personalized assistance during my visit.

While I was thrilled with the complimentary breakfast and afternoon mojitos, I found the overall quality of the restaurant's food to be disappointing for the prices. plus, the 20% discount on dining options seemed misleading as it only applied to dinner.

I had a fantastic stay at Pelican Hotel during my visit to Miami Beach! The location is just perfect, right across the street from the beach, and the vibrant atmosphere of South Beach surrounds the hotel. The service was really good; the staff was friendly and made me feel welcomed. The only downside was the early check-out time—though I appreciated how they took care of my luggage while I explored before my departure.

I enjoyed delicious meals at the hotel restaurant that offered fantastic Italian dishes, especially the seafood linguine that was cooked to perfection. The breakfast variety was decent, but I could’ve used a bit more selection, especially since it was included in the daily resort fee.

The ambiance of the hotel coupled with the happy hour and unique cocktail offerings made it a great spot for socializing. I appreciated the complimentary snacks and water in the room as a thoughtful touch.
