It was our first time in Miami Beach. I did not book any hotel in advance purposely, since it was so hard to sift through the good and bad reviews. So we got to the beach, parked the car and took a stroll down the Ocean Drive. We stopped at a few hotels that did not have rooms or didn't... more

Our stay at the Cardozo was really nice. The room, a beachview deluxe king, was terrific. It was very clean, comfortable bed, great black marble bath w/ jacuzzi, and had a very nice view of Lumuus Park and the beach. The staff was very pleasent and helpful. The hotel's location is great, directly on Ocean Drive in the heart of... more

After reading almost all of the reviews for the top 20 hotels in Miami Beach, I decided on the Cardoza because I prefer boutique hotels. The rate was incredible at $126.00 per night and we had an ocean view room. The hotel is located to everything! Shopping, night life, the beach, great restaurants and easy access to the I-95. The... more

First of all, there are many good points about this hotel; namely: * the hotel is perfectly located down the quiet end of OceanDrive; * it is right across the street from the beach; * it is conveniently next to a multi-storey car park which isn't too expensive; * the rooms are well decorated and the double beds are huge;... more

Stayed two nights at the Cardozo - April 26th and 27th - check in was easy and went straight up to our corner room on the 2nd floor. It was at the back corner of the hotel, overlooking the road off Ocean drive - no problem as we assumed this would be quieter - certainly didn't have a problem with... more

We were looking forward to concluding our holiday with a stay at this much praised hotel. Imagine our feelings, therefore, when we returned from Mexico to find an e-mail message saying that our accommodation had been cancelled! We understand that this hotel overbooks and then bumps people. Unfortunately, this big let down occurred at the time when AA was cancelling... more

Fantastic property on Ocean Drive owned by Gloria Estefan. Oriente, the restaurant, is terrific and there is a very nice private dining room (Benjamin Cardozo Suite) for events that worked very well for a party I threw. Nice people work here. Pretty people come here and work here and the entire place works well. It is not as chaotic as... more

After reading all the reviews we were excited for our weekend visit. When we checked in we were told there was construction but that would not affect us on the weekend when we were there. Not true! When we got to our room and went to open the window after having problems trying to get it open we realized the... more
