We booked to stay here for 3 nights in total, two at the beginning of our stay in Miami and the other the night before flying out of Miami. This hotel was recommended to us so we were disapointed to read others comments on tripadvisor about how The Dorchester was not up to standard. Despite our reservations we stayed there.... more

I had the pleasure of staying at the Dorchester on 7-10-08 thru 7-13-08. This was a girl's escapade! My friend & I were quite impressed with the hotel. We were almost certain that we were going to be staying in a DUMP based on the reviews we had read. However, it was definitely the opposite! Whatever you do: DO NOT... more

My Wife and I stayed at the Dorchester for one week. April 08. English is not the 1st language of any of the staff on reception. Communication was a problem when asking for directions or almost anything else. Room was cleaned daily but noise from the Shore Club opposite was a problem,with car horns sounding throughout the night and early... more

The hotel was clean and air conditioned (with a $4 per night charge that they don't tell you about). Rooms were ok, no complaints. The hotel could do with some refurbishment of the rooms but the foyer was lovely. My only complaint was at the front desk, with a woman called Viji-who was very rude to all female residents but... more

I had a bit of a mix up with the hotel due to me booking through book it .com the suite that I reserved with a king bed and a pullout sofa wasnt available so I ended up with a room with a queen bed. Despite that and the fact that the pool side bar didnt have what I wanted... more

The only reason why this hotel earns two stars is that the price -considering the trendy location- was OK for what we got. Be prepared to adjust your expectations when you go there. Friends of ours stayed at the Marseilles next door (sister property) with -compared to us - high expectations and got terribly dissappointed. We saw the Marseilles room... more

We had 6 rooms booked at Marseilles Hotel and were called a few days before our trip that we were being moved to the Dorchester. After reading the reviews I called and told them we were not happy with the things we had read. Since we were going to a wedding we felt there was not much we could do.... more

I was pleasantly pleased with this hotel, very clean and reasonably priced. They have a beautiful pool that they do not mention and happy hour at 7pm. We only stayed for a night as we left for a cruise the next day but for the cost the room and stay was well worth it. more

We stayed at the Dorchester two times (six days each) during our latest FLorida vacation. The Hotel is not as bad as feared after reading the rewievs here. The hotel has a nearly perfect location close to shops and restaurants just across the street from the beach. It has a pretty nice garden, a nice pool (happy hour 7-8 pm... more
