Positive Reviews

positive:

Wonderful Miami Beach location

With an oceanfront positon in the Art Deco District of Miami Beach, the Penguin Hotel occupies an ideal location - something that virtually all former guests appreciated. Many points of interest in the city, such as Ocean Drive and South Pointe Park, are within walking distance of the hotel.

positive:

Attentive and friendly staff

Most previous visitors to the hotel found the customer service to be a real highlight. The general opinion is that the staff members, in particular the front desk personnel, are very welcoming, attentive and accommodating.

positive:

Free breakfast a nice addition

The complimentary breakfast provided by the Penguin Hotel was warmly received in general. Although the breakfast is said to be small, past guests found positives in the variety and quality offered.


Negative Reviews

negative:

Small rooms have seen better days

The rooms at the Penguin Hotel, whilst considered clean and boasting nice views for the most part, have not received the most glowing feedback overall. Former visitors have stated that some of the rooms are small, while there were also signs of minor cosmetic wear and tear.

negative:

Wi-Fi not the best

A number of previous guests were critical about the Wi-Fi supplied by the hotel. The range of the Wi-Fi is supposedly unreliable, and the connection quality can differ depending on what room you are staying in at the accommodation.

negative:

Basic facilities despite a resort fee

Although the Penguin Hotel has an on-site bar and restaurant, the accommodation has very little else in the way of recreational spaces. As a result, some past visitors were bemused at having to pay a resort fee during their stay.
