Insider tips
Built in 1939, the National Hotel is an example
of classic Art Deco design marked by clean lines, curved walls and
retro-chic furnishings.
Set at the corner of 16th Street
and Collins Avenue, in the heart of South Beach (and next to the
Delano Hotel), the National features
landscaped grounds, direct access to the beach, and a 205-foot-long
Infinity Pool – hailed by Condé Nast Traveler as “the
stretch limo of hotel pools”
Guests enjoy an array of personal services, including strawberry
lemonade at check-in and welcome kits with local information in
each room. A beach concierge provides chairs, towels, drinks, and
other services, and massages and beauty treatments can be reserved
through the concierge. When it's time to leave, a special "Jet
Set" to-go menu offers tasty alternatives to airline meals.
Valet parking is available, but you can

Avenue garage for a flat rate of $8 per day.
Complimentary Internet access (Cable connections)

National Hotel "stay away"
Date: December 19, 2005
Reviewer: Miami Beach 411 User, New York City,
NY
I produced large trade shows
for over ten years and have stayed in many hotels. This is my
first written complaint concerning a hotel, which I hope will
help to save future attendees from the problems I endured at Art
Basel (an otherwise world class and very well run event to which
I will certainly return).
Anyone booking rooms overlooking Collins avenue at the National
Hotel should be told about the road noise. I found it impossible
to sleep without earplugs (because of the road noise and the
cheap single-pane windows). I prefer to not have to sleep with
earplugs in my ears (especially when I am paying $450 per night.
When I asked, I was told that no other rooms were available
at any price.
In addition, I found the following problems with the National
Hotel:
(1) It was not possible to (or at least no one working at the
hotelcould figure out how to) put the hallway or main room lights
on without the overhead fan also turning on (which was not only
unpleasant but also caused a loud buzzing noise). I opted to
stay in relative darkness.
(2) It took three calls to housekeeping and two calls to the
manager to have my down comforter changed to a non-down one.
I am allergic to down and the allergic reaction I sustained
has since progressed into an infection.
(3) Most of the staff I encountered (including at the front
desk) did not speak enough English to understand the problems
I was encountering. For example, after requesting a non-down
comforter, I was brought three feather filled comforters to
which I was allergic. I hope this stemmed from their apparent
inability to understand English, as opposed to having been done
on purpose. The persons in question worked at the front desk.
(4) The plaster in the bathroom was cracked and peeling (room
603).
(5) An important package (clearly and correctly labeled) that
I left with the concierge to be picked up at the concierge vanished.
It was later found after the recipient had tried in vain and
I was forced to speak to the manager on duty.
