Just recently returned from a 3 night stay at the Pelican. Really enjoyed it. The fun, quirky rooms are not for everyone, but for those looking for a different experience in the cookie cutter world of four star hotels, this place is where you should go. Great location, excellent service, great food at the restaurant. Rooms are on the smallish... more

The Pelican Hotel made an ideal first stop on our Florida holiday - we stayed there for the first 3 nights. It was a fantastic culture shock to find ourselves supping great cocktails in 32c heat in THE location after a long transatlantic flight. The staff were welcoming and informative. The room prices were very reasonable. Rooms are individually kitsch... more

My husband and I stayed at the Pelican for three nights during our Honeymoon and we LOVED it!! When we got there we were happy to see we got the room we requested (309) and they had a bottle of champagne waiting for us. The location was great right on ocean drive. We will be back again next year for... more

I stayed here with my GF for 2 nights. It was her first time in South Beach. This is such a unique and beautiful hotel. From the elevator to the hallways to the front desk, everything is a work of art and tasteful. Speaking of tasteful, not everyone will enjoy the individually decorated rooms, we did not like the first... more

Took my boyfriend here for his birthday. We BOTH loved the hotel. The staff is ExCellent, very helpful, smiles all the time, let us check out at 2 instead of 12.

This is a gem of a hotel with a location right on Ocean Drive. The staff were exellent and the food was amazing. Kitchen stayed open until 2 am , bar until 5. Great individual room , each with a different theme, I will return!! more

We picked the Pelican Hotel due to its quirky rooms and individual look, right on Ocean Drive on South Beach. First impressions were not good - South Beach is traffic chaos, there's nowhere to park and we had our car keys snatched off us by the valet immediately and then had valet parking added instantly to our bill. Turns out... more

I've stayed here twice now and cannot recommend it highly enough. The rooms are quirky and cool and very comfortable and the whole hotel smells really lovely. The staff are very helpful and the free sunloungers and umbrella on the beach make a difference to daily expenditure (normally costs about $32 per day for 2 beds and an umbrella on... more

We stayed at the Pelican for 3 nights over July 4th weekend and had a brilliant time. We had requested the Viva Las Vegas room when booking and on arrival we're not disappointed by the loud decor. Its in a great location - opposite the beach and on a buzzing part of ocean drive. You're only a short strol away... more
