A Beautiful Studio situated in a unique and beautifully restored art deco landmark hotel. The quintessential Miami Beach experience. This South Beach Hotel is located directly on Ocean Drive . So many owners describe their condos as being Ocean Front when in fact they are situated streets away from the Ocean. Superbowl Availability. Guests return year after year to this charming little art deco gem on Ocean Drive.
My studio is situated right on the beach on Ocean and Fifth, in the most tranquil corner of Ocean Drive, where buildings are listed and preserved.
While being central It also happens to be the calmest part of Ocean Drive so you will sleep peacefully at night as it is away from the hustle and bustle of the busier end of the strip.
Everything South Beach has to offer is just a few minutes walk away,
trendy restaurants, designer boutiques, art galleries and cafes. The Bentley staff are wonderful and could not be more helpful. Guests are always full of praise for the wonderful staff who make their stay so very special and memorable. Just read the former guest testimonials below. The Bentley is listed in Trip Advisor's Top Five in Miami.
Suites are designed to provide the conveniences of home, king size bed, suites have fully equipped kitchenettes and kitchens, Italian marble bathrooms, plush robes, high speed internet and much more. A rooftop pool and terrace offer breathtaking views of the ocean. Enjoy the excitement of South Beach from this stylish retreat. Beautiful sunset views from the rooftop terrace. Accommodates two comfortably. Pets are welcome.

My experience with this hotel took place in:
April, 2006
I traveled to this hotel with: friends
I recommend this hotel for: couples and romantics, singles,
families with teenagers
My visit was for: extended vacation
Would I stay at this location again: absolutely!
I stayed for 13 nights at Bentley Hotel and have never felt so at home! After my four night stay at NY's Waldorf Astoria, I flew to Miami thinking that nothing could match WA's excellent customer service.. I was wrong.
The staff at the hotel were simply fabulous. The room and bathroom was gorgeous. There was a kitchen suite to cook and I spent all (well almost all) my waking hours on the roof terrace on the lounger. Sultry nights, I spent in the hot tub.. ;)
Can I say, the staff could not be any nicer! One came up to the tub to provide me with towels and moisturiser, even when I did not request for it.. that's what I call powerful service!!
Oh and the location is fabulous.. it is on ocean drive and overlooking south beach.. yet, you can never ask to be in the quieter area of the hotspot.. you can walk to all of the hip spots like Nikki Beach, Mansion & Opium.. to name a few.. what a most wonderful place, if ever there was one.. I recommend you stay..

This is our 3rd trip to Miami and let me start by saying that this
was a very good hotel, right in the centre of the historic art deco
district and a stones throw from the beach.
I travelled from England, with my my wife and two friends and we were booked into the standard suites.
Yes you do have to take an elevator to the lobby but this is only 10 seconds out of your life and represents very good security for hotel guests.
The rooms were spacious, clean and well appointed, but in need of some moderisation. Our bed was very comfortable and the bathrooms were very nice, with clean marble lines.
The greatest asset of this property is the roof terrace and pool. This was quiet and overlooked the ocean. You can sit up there and drink from the hotel bar or take your own wine if you wish and watch the world go by. We never had any problems finding a lounger. Very relaxing and an ideal place to recover!
The hotel manager Marcio, made us feel welcome and the chef Big Tex at 510 Ocean was friendly and made very nice pool side eats and cocktails, which were very reasonably priced for South Beach. Try ordering drinks at some of the big names and you will know what I
mean!
*During our trip we did visit and view rooms at the sister hotel, Bentley Beach, which although had much more modern rooms, was a much larger property. There was nothing there to match the roof terrace at the Bentley Hotel.This hotel is located in the quiter part of Ocean Drive, is a short walk to the the main party scene. On balance I would choose the Bentley Hotel*

Miami Beach: The Bentley Hotel: Great Hotel and Great Location
Nov 10, 2006 Jeffindy, Indianapolis
The biggest coup the Bentley Hotel pulls off is its ability to remain immune to the throngs of pedestrians on the well-traveled Ocean Drive outside. Guests enjoy a private front entrance that leads, via elevator, to the main lobby. Inside this enclave of Old World luxury you will find a charming ambience and an overly accommodating, professional staff. The hotel's 53 suites are both hotel rooms and condos; some of them can be rented year-round. Rooms come complete with marble floors, well-stocked kitchens, and roomy bathrooms with steam showers. Try not to get a corner room, though, or you will learn more about your neighbors than you'd ever want to. Because it is located on South Beach's bustling strip of neon and nightlife, the Bentley, despite its efforts to stand apart from the rest of its neighbors, isn't impervious to noise. However, if you want luxe in the midst of all the action, the Bentley is a great choice.

This is a great little hotel in the heart of South Beach. We had an Oceanfront room with
separate bedroom and living room. It had a full kitchen and excellent bath. My wife and I
enjoyed the decor of the rooms. It was perfect for our 5 night stay. The roof pool and
sundeck were fantastic. Views were spectacular and area was well taken care of. Nestor
who was the desk clerk was fantastic. He recommended 3 different restaurants and they
were all very good. Highly suggest Fish Called Avalon right down the street. Most of the
nightclubs and shopping are a walk away. We would definitely go back here again.

Tips/Secrets: Buy your own beer and drinks. Service Bar is expensive like any hotel
I spent a week in South Beach in September. The weather was good, and since it was not
high season the hotel rates were good.
I found a delightful studio in an art deco hotel right on Ocean Drive, close to all the
restaurants and nightlife yet situated in a quiet location on the corner of Fifth. I can highly
recommend this charming little hotel. if it's not a listed building it should be, the
architecuture is superb and it has been beautifully restored.
The front of house staff are charming, could not be more helpful. It's a condo hotel, but I
managed to get a great deal by contacting one of the owners via the vacationrentals
website which lists lots of condos and studios in Miami.
I stayed in Studio 319 which had all the home from home comforts, fluffy bathrobes,
Italian marble bathroom, well stocked kitchenetee, free high speed internet access. Best of
all though is the rooftop terrrace with pool and hot tub and the most stunning views of the
ocean and sunset.
Some evenings I was more than happy to avoid the hustle bustle of South beach and just
cook dinner and take it up to the roof terrace with a glass of wine and watch the
sunset..bliss!.
One afternoon there was an unexpected but pleasant surprise, music struck up for the free
NFL concert on the beach directly opposite the hotel. Hsted by Puff Diddy who performed
and also showcased all of his artists.
He even hosted a pre concert reception for one of his artists on the Bentley terrace.
And it's not every day you get to see a rap star chilling with his friends
right next to you, but that's Miami for you.
I discovered that I liked Reggaethon, an artist called Tego Caldern was just great, all of
South beach were dancing.
If this was a foretaste of Superbowl then visitors to this exicitng edvent are in for a real
treat.
I managed to get a great deal by booking directly with the owner of the studio.

Why my place is great for a pet?
My condo is situated in a very friendly hotel right on Miami Beach. Directly opposite there is a 5 mile boardwalk, perfect for walkies. the hotel staff are freindly and welcoming, they also love pets and most of them are dog or cat owners.
More importantly the Bentley hotel is an architectural art deco gem situated in a quiet conservation area on a calm corner of Ocean Drive. It is perfect for dogs as the hotel is peaceful, not noisy. It's also well away from the hustle and bustle of Ocean Drive. Pets love the Bentley, they are made to feel welcome, the roof terraceis also a doggie paradise, with lots to see and great for a run while owners relax read, swim or tan.
