I loved this hotel. For the price, it provided great atmosphere. From the antique furniture throughout the hotel, the artwork, the classic old Otis elevator that was man/woman operated, the cafe with included breakfast, the ambience was fabulous. A block from all the shopping and restaurants was great as well. The only drawback was the smell. The cleaning solutions they used created an odor that was mildly unpleasant. Someone who is really sensitive to that would be unhappy. For me, if it were in any other place, would have been more of a problem. But in the atmosphere of this lovely pension styled hotel, I was willing to overlook it. However, if they read this, it would be great if they would switch to more organic solutions. Then this place would be perfect. Highly recommended.

I thoroughly enjoyed my stay at the Hotel St. Michel. The staff was courteous, attentive, and the service prompt and impeccable. My only source of slight vexation was that my room was next to the elevator, and proved to be a gathering place for a particularly loud group of fellow travelers. Despite this somewhat inconvenient location, I had an excellent time.

Reading the reviews on Hotels.com I was geeked up to see Hotel St. Michel. I planned a romantic weekend for my husband's birthday and I was really disappointed. Starting with arriving at the hotel there was no parking at the building we had to park across the street and carry our luggage. The receptionist did not offer us any help. The set up outside the hotel could use work. There were old tables outside that were not being used (so I didn't see the purpose for them). The lobby and restaurant could use work. The most exciting thing was the old fashioned elevator. Our room was small. That's an understatement. The bed wasn't much bigger than a twin sized bed. The floors were old and felt unsecure. My husband thanked me for wanting to try something new but he said he would prefer modern hotels. The bathroom was small and the shower was rusted. The sink had a slow leak. All in all I was geared up for a great romantic getaway and I was disappointed.

Overall, my experience at this hotel was positive. The hotel staff was very friendly and accomodating. The room was simple and adequate for my needs. The room was a little dirty but nothing to get upset about. The free wifi worked great.

Hotel St. Michel may not have some of the amenities of a more modern hotel,such as a restaurant or room service, but my stay was perfectly charming. The rooms were comfortable and clean, the staff was friendly and responded quickly to any request. I will definitely stay there again if I have the opportunity.

My wife and I stayed there the day before our cruise. Very nice hotel. Neat old features such as the elevator. Would make a nice romantice getaway. Small coffee shops, Dennys and Miracle mile are a short walk away. Hotel staff was very friendly. Felt like home.

If you are looking for a hotel with character and class, Hotel St. Michel is what you are looking for. The hotel is very historic and located just off of "Miracle Mile" in Miami. The interior is classic French decoration, with beautiful hard-wood floors. The rooms are spacious and make you feel like you've been transported to France. It has modern amenities like a flat-screen LCD TV blended in with the classic setting. A true gem of a hotel in Miami!

The location is great, the rooms are charming and the staff is pleasant. The inside door handle to the room fell off as we were leaving, there is a strong odor of perfumed cleaning products and the stairway carpet needs replacing. Once we aired the room, the odor went away. It's an old hotel.

This hotel is extremely old, not that its a problem but the second we walked into our room we could smell the scent of OLD. The bathroom we had had rust on the tub, they do not supply with the correct toiletries. They gave us two soaps, one shampoo, and two mouthwashs. I've stayed at more simpler hotels and they always have conditioner. There was no fruit in our room as the site mentioned, and the complementary breakfast? Was insane. On top of the bar, there was one tray covered with a blanket that obtained exactly 5 pastries, (2 croissants, and 3 muffins). Mind you we had breakfast at 8:30am, its not like we woke up late and the food ran out. There was coffee and orange juice, and thats it. No cereal, no eggs, no toast, no fresh fruit. Not your usual complimentary breakfast. The hotel is very creepy and old, makes you feel like if you are in a scary movie. My suggestion is pay a little more, and get a lot more than you would at the St. Michel.

We were attending a conference so really we were at the hotel only at night. My husband said he really didn't have time to enjoy it, but I loved all the little details: the decoration, the wooden floors in the room and all tile in the bathroom, the fixtures, the beautiful french windows, the old style elevator, the hotel entry and foyer, and the seet, very helpful gentleman who checked us in. It was a great room for the money and it is in a very nice area - 2-3 minutes from the Miracle Mile 7-8 minutes from UM. There are several nice restaurants on the Miracle Mile, and even just a couple blocks over, as well as 4 or 5 nice bakeries and coffee shops. I absolutely loved our time there and would definitely stay again if we are in the area.

we were very pleased in general. They need to tell you that a cont. breakfast is available. We didn't know until we came back from getting breakfast.

It was a very old "five star" New York style hotel ...crank elevator included. It was very old but quaint. Staff was very friendly ... would stay again for a time back in time experience.

Recently stayed here and I would make the following suggestions: 1- Do away with the in room "basket of fruit" because it is a joke. Giving me 1 ugly apple and 1 orange from the previous guest that wouldn't touch it is just plain silly. Instead, they should have a nice basket full of fruit at the front desk, available to any guest, anytime. 2- Perform a VERY THOROUGH cleaning of all common area carpets, walls, baseboards, handrails and especially the rooms. They need to be properly dusted, some touch up paint, good scrubbing, wash or replace the shower curtains, improve the bedding and the lighting and by God, get rid of those roaches!! 3- Overall, this hotel is really cute with lots of period character and pleasant staff in an excellent location. It just needs a really good and thorough cleaning.

Has charm and character by using antique furniture. Clean room, but definitely needs to update its linens. Great location, but parking is across the street with no valet. Restaurant downstairs was vacant. Continental breakfast only consisted of coffee, OJ, and one kind of muffin. No pay per view. Free wireless internet pretty decent and fast. A/C works wonderfully with Miami heat. Hotel personnel nice and friendly. Overall I had a decent stay, but I wish the parking situation was different but that's Miami for ya!

Great value for the money!

The Hotel Place St. Michel is an old-world, service oriented hotel located in a remarkably well-maintained, clean and fully functional Art-Deco building. The location is central, and easily reached from any part of the city including the airport within minutes. This place oozes charm and class. From the fully functional, bellhop-operated Otis elevator (I just had to ride it at least once despite my room being located on the second floor) to the friendly, well-mannered staff. While the adjacent restaurant (Restaurant St. Michel) has been a well known fine dining spot for at least 30 years, it maintains an elegant, yet low key atmosphere that appeals to us mere mortals :). The traveler may also find a number of other restaurants featuring several culinary styles from good old hamburgers and fries (Coral Gables Grill) to Pan-Asian, Italian and of course Latin fare within easy walking distance. Area clubs include anything from cool jazz to funk and rock-n-roll as well as authentic Spanish taverns ("Tablaos") Irish Pubs, and 70's and 80's style discotheques featuring vintage European disco and techno music as well as hot Latin music (This is Miami after all! ;D). All of these attractions are located within a ten-block radius, as is Coral Gables' world-famous "Miracle Mile." Well, if you haven't guessed it yet, I am already looking forward to my NEXT stay! Great place for a romantic getaway!

Very old with lots of character.. not too bad for the price. Excellent location, but you have to pay for parking.

Beauty, charm and elegance that was unexpected when I first booked. Exquisite detail,as I love rich wood, tile antiques. Very much like a trip to Europe. Parking is awkward, however.

This is a quaint hotel with all of its 1920s charm....the old style decor was great. Some updates are needed, particularly the bathroom. Overall, it was a nice quiet choice and served the purpose as a 'stopover' location.

I read the reviews prior to booking a room at this hotel so I knew what to expect when I arrived. Yes, the hotel is old, but it is a wonderful reflection of days gone by. The staff was friendly and courteous. The location is fantastic. The hotel was clean and the rooms comfortable. I have already recommended to friends.

If you like antiques and old-style hotels this is the place for you. The bathroom is very modern and looks brand-new, and our room had a flat-screen TV, great AC and other modern amenities despite being in such an old place. Very quiet neighborhood although it is a quick and easy walk to all the restaurants and shops of the "Miracle Mile". The staff at the front desk were exceptionally helpful and friendly.

BEST LOCATION, YOU CAN WALK TO THE STORES RESTAURANTS BANKS THE CONCIERGE VERY POLITE, IS A VERY OLD BUILDING 1926 THEY CONCERVE THE PLACE IN VERY GOOD CONDITION

Very nice hotel for the price. No restaurant but not a problem given the area. No exercise facility.

Great location, two blocks away from Miracle Mile. Beautifully decorated with lots of antiques, very nice comfortable room and friendly staff.

It was totally unexpected , and such a different setting from traditional hotels. I was worried it was going to be old and busted, but to the contrary. I loved it and so did my girl. Only thing is they need to do some maintenance to the building , but it didn't effect me in anyway at all.

Very small rooms but intimate feel and great location.

Would stay again at this hotel. The hotel was clean and the service was excellent.

The rooms were clean and the help were very nice.

Very charming hotel with very friendly helpful people. Bathroom had some maintenance issues.....very old shower head...peeling metal around sink. I have stayed several times and some of the bathrooms are completely updated. I will stay again.

We had the most delightful stay at the St. Michel. It's a very old 28-room hotel with beautiful art and antique furniture everywhere, including the common areas and inside the junior suite we booked. French windows all around the room opened out for fresh air in the morning. The room was clean and surprisingly up to date...flat screen TV, a/c and free wi-fi. The day manager is a wonderful older gentleman who called me by name as I entered the hotel. The rest of the staff was satisfactory, but could have been more gracious. Staff ran the elevator and delivered ice to our room upon request. It markets itself as a European style hotel, but this was better than what we found in Europe. Continental breakfast was nice, but the clerk handling it was extremely sour, seemingly annoyed that I asked her to heat up a muffin. Parking was great on the weekend, just get a $10 roll of quarters for the meter 9am to 10pm. Weekly, parking at the garage across the street is only $9 a night. Bedding was excellent, and there was lots to see and do in Coral Gables, with the Fairchild Garden and Biltmore Hotel only a few miles away. We plan to use the hotel every time we go to Miami from now on. Excellent.

Quaint older but bequtiful hotel with antiques and great ambiance. Unfortunately, hotel restaraunt which had great reputation has been closed. Bar is still open.

Blast from the past is right - especially when it comes to the beds - they squeaked and the mattress was so old there was a dip in the middle. I felt I was sleeping in dust mite central and not at all happy about that given I have allergies. There was no restaurant and I tried to call reception at midnight and no reply - only wonder what would have happened if I was in need of help if there was an emergency. There's old world charm and then places that are just not kept well. The fruit basket was a china basket with an apple and an orange - both of which had seen better days.

This is a matter of style. Some people like this type of 40' style, but I'm not a fan at all. The hotel elevator requires special handling with a wood and metal giant stick and no buttons. The hotel ambiance is very dark in general, furnished with dated furniture and antiques all over the place, including very scary wall paintings. Again, this may be paradise for some, just that I'm not in that group.

THE HOTEL WAS DIFFICULT TO LOCATE. AFTER FINALLY GETTING THERE ALITTLE DISAPOINTED IN THE OVERALL CONDITION OF THE HOTEL. REALY COULD USE SOME PAINT AND A COULD CLEANING .

This hotel is old, not quaint. The same is true of the bedding and pillows which have probably been in service since the hotel's opening. Other dirty things: 1. The TV remote had visible gunk on it (gross!) 2. The shower enclosure 3. The floor throughout (which thankfully was wood, so maybe fewer germs can survive there than on carpet, but please run a broom over the place now and again) Other complaints: Coming and going after dark required waiting for someone to unlock the front door. This isn't a bad neighborhood and I'm not a big fan of the bed and breakfast intimacy that this monitoring of my coming and going brought to this hotel. Good things: 1. Location 2. Maybe price at least compared to other hotels in the area, but I'd pay a bit more somewhere else next time since overall, even for the relatively low price, this place wasn't a good value.

This hotel is in a good neiborhood and well maintained. Very unique atmosphere and well maintained and clean. I would not recomend this hotel for family stays but it is good for business trael or couples.
