About

Marseilles Beachfront Hotel

Marseilles Beachfront Hotel brings classic Art Deco style to a corner of Collins Avenue in Miami Beach's South of Fifth district. The hotel balances old-school Florida character with the practical comforts travelers expect: air-conditioned rooms, a 24-hour front desk, and on-site parking. The property's outdoor spaces are its centerpiece — a heated swimming pool with a shallow end, a jacuzzi, sun terrace, and direct access to a private stretch of sand with complimentary umbrellas and loungers.

The hotel's 3-star billing (despite a 4-star price range) reflects its solid, no-frills approach — think vending machines and a poolside snack bar rather than luxury touches. Staff consistently earn praise for their friendliness and willingness to help, from early check-ins to returning forgotten items. It's a dependable base for beach days, cruise pre-stays, or exploring the cafés and bars that line Collins Avenue.

In brief

What works, what to weigh

+

Strengths

3 reasons to book
  • Prime beachfront location — Just steps from the sand with on-site private beach access, free umbrellas and loungers, and a short walk to Collins Avenue's dining and nightlife.
  • Lively outdoor pool area — A heated pool with a shallow end, jacuzzi, sun terrace, and a poolside snack bar — a favorite spot for families and couples alike.
  • Exceptional staff service — Guests consistently note the friendly, helpful team — from early check-ins to resolving room issues and even returning dropped items.

Worth weighing

3 to weigh
  • Pricey for a 3-star property — The rates run high (from £711 per night), often as much as a true 4-star, yet the hotel self-identifies as 3-star with basic amenities like vending machines and limited luxury.
  • Dated rooms and building — The hotel is older, with some rooms showing wear — a guest needed TV/AC repair and another complained about their room, though staff resolved it quickly.
  • Hit-or-miss Wi-Fi and extras — Wi-Fi is paid, and there's an ATM and vending machines instead of a full-service approach. A few guests found some aspects less polished.
