8.6/10 Excellent! (1,002 reviews)
The Cavalier is a quirky, fun hotel in the art deco district. It’s near the quieter end, so it’s perfect for adults, they provide beach access and free chairs, the restaurant is great- a mix of American and Italian. The employees are nice, Philip checked us in and Lester was our wonderful bar tender and server and had our drinks waiting! We should be back in six months for our bi annual girls trip! The rooms are quirky and cute and really loved the stylized feel with the older touches they preserved! Room was super clean, breakfast cost less than Starbucks and was so much better! Loved the original elevator- a must try- and just the whole vibe! This is old Miami at its best!

We loved staying here and will definitely be back! Yes, it is very expensive, but compared to other Miami hotels this one is the best overall deal for what you get.

The room was average - nothing special, although in a good location downtown. The views from the pictures in the booking are nothing like what we saw from our hotel room.
