Art deco style and relaxed beach vibes is what the Gale South Beach is all about. On one side you've got Collins Avenue, a bustling hubbub of city lights, sights and sounds. On the other is the beach, with the relaxed promenade and white sands leading to the Atlantic Ocean. And at the Gale, you've got an infinity-edge pool to plunge into, a delicious Italian restaurant to eat at, and rooms decorated with the beach and ocean as their inspiration. However you decide to spend your holiday, make it a memorable one at the Gale.

Great location, small room

The pros: great location and we liked the beach access amenities via the Sagamore (though you definitely pay for it in the resort fee). Nice staff and we didn't have any sound issues (staying on the second floor, probably mid-building facing the side street).
The cons: The room (standard two queen) was small, like NYC small. And the bathroom setup…

The cons: The room (standard two queen) was small, like NYC small. And the bathroom setup isn't really conducive for families as there wasn't a door for the bathroom (only the WC). Bed was very comfortable.

Worn down. Unsafe. Rude.

Dirty. Definitely not a 4 or 5 star hotel. And what in the world is with the pool and this death trap of a light… The carpet is unbelievably out dated and worn. It’s just gross. Maybe take up the carpet and put down laminate. From “valet” to the desk there are about 20 steps from the outside to the desk that you have to go up with your luggage. No…

Maybe take up the carpet and put down laminate. From “valet” to the desk there are about 20 steps from the outside to the desk that you have to go up with your luggage. No ramps or elevators to help. Not handicap accessible, forget it, don’t even try this hotel. Icing on the cake, staff was rude.

I booked this hotel on Hiltons website and it is not at all like shown in their pictures. For starters the pool and bar are on completely separate floors and pool bar not opened at all till night. In addition to that the decor at the bar and the pool area are completely different than what is shown from online.

I booked this hotel on Hiltons website and it is not at all like shown in their pictures. For starters the pool and bar are on completely separate floors and pool bar not opened at all till night. In addition to that the decor at the bar and the pool area are completely different than what is shown from online.
The room, the carpets are stained with ‘white stuff’ and we complained to change to a different room and this room has ‘brown stains’. The hallways are dirty looking, the headboard is chipped. Overall a dirty hotel. We are only staying one night-Thank God but it is a dirty looking establishment. Needs cleaning and new carpets.
If you are looking for the HILTON quality, this is not it.
