We stayed in the Strand for 10 days in July and we really recommend it. The hotel is very nice, clean, and the service is very friendly and helpful. The location is amazing, on Ocean Drive and 11th street, just next to the Versace mansion and the beach is just on the other side of the street. And this beach... more

The hotel is ok. Staff is nice and the room was cool. The sofa was a bit dirty but the bed was comfy, the bath clean... Depending on your room number it could be so noisy! be careful with that if you are not into party party party!!! BUT... when we arrive we were asked for a credit card and... more

The hotel and stay itself were great, but ... be very careful with your financial information with this hotel. My wife and I stayed nearly a week here on our honeymoon. Prior to our arrival, my best man (who lives in California, called to have a "romantic package" left for us when we got there. The hotel had him fax... more

I am currently 2 nights into my 4 night stay at the Strand on Ocean Drive and this was definitely not what I expected.

First. Let me address the Noise Issue you've been hearing so much about: There was noise. there are clubs all around... But it was never too noisy to sleep or watch TV or read.

The Strand is a wonderful hotel, the staff was very friendly and accomodating. I stayed in the main building on the fifth floor and my room had a balcony. It was wonderful to wake up everyday to the beach, ocean, and beautiful blue sky. The hotel is beautiful. My friends stayed in another building and their room was nice as... more

The only reason i couldn't give this place a 5 star rating was due to the ongoing construction along side the building we stayed in. It was loud in the mornings and we weren't informed of this ahead of time. There did seem like there were plenty of open rooms on the other side, away from this, where some of... more

You know how it is...you check the hotel's website and then hope that when you arrive at the hotel it actually resembles those pictures... Well my wife and I were very happy; we stayed for 9 nights, the location was perfect - you couldn't be more in the middle of the buzz of Ocean Drive & SoBe, the hotel looked... more
