I loved the style of the hotel, art deco and contemporary, lots of attention to detail regarding style, the cafe area is very quaint and relaxing for the mornings. I thought it was a very clean hotel. Service was average depending on the front desk...
The Crest bills itself as offering "fully equipped kitchens" in the suites. As it turned out, the kitchen lacked basic stuff like a kettle, a toaster, a draining rack for dishes. When we arrived, the fridge and stove didn't work, nor...
35 year old female with a luxury budget, traveling for business
Entering the lobby and stepping onto the terrazzo floor, I was instantly reminded of the Art Deco era. The front desk clerk promptly greeted me from behind the fossilized coral desk, which matched the oversized fireplace mantle.
Considering this is Miami Beach and boutique hotels have a reputation of being small and "a little tired," my suite was surprisingly comfortable and spacious for two people, especially for the room rate.
The furnishings were relatively new and walls freshly painted. An Art Deco-minimalist must have decorated the suite, furnishings were not cluttered but functional, using blond-colored wood for the armoire, cupboards and table. The two double beds were the right firmness and were draped with white cotton sheets. Although not necessary, there were blankets in the armoire.
The window-unit air conditioner was able to keep up with the Miami heat and humidity and kept me cool. Other than the hotel's proximity to the swanky dining, shopping and nightlife of Lincoln Road, the kitchenette was the best feature. The refrigerator was decent sized (but needed to turn it on upon arriving in the room) and the microwave was handy. There was also a full range stove and oven. Dishes, glasses and coffee maker were provided in the cupboards.
There is a small cafe with indoor/outdoor dining for breakfast and lunch. Entrees are moderately priced and most include a beverage.
Like many of the Miami Beach hotels, the property does not have parking. There is a parking lot across the street which costs $20 per car, per night - cash only.
It is a small Art Deco hotel that is convenient to the beach, Lincoln Road, and the nightlife of Miami Beach. The difference between it and other Art Deco Hotels in SouthBeach is it is very quiet. The only drawback is if you have a car it is $20...

Horrible
The staff was very rude and not very helpful. My family and I (about 30 People) arrived at the hotel before check in time, we were aware of the fact that we could not check in so we wanted to store our things. We did not recieve any assistance...
pros: locationNo A/C in first room; had to be moved. Shower was so hot, could not wash hair, then could not turn shower off. Shower ran entire night while we were at dinner despite telling front desk of the problem (he "forgot"). Came back to check...
The Crest is a very pretty art deco hotel from the outside. The interior is clean and sufficient (which is amazing, by Miami standards) - but I wouldn't say it was spectacular by any means. However, if you want a clean, cool hotel located near...
