The hotel

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.

I'm a lifetime diamond member who spends hundreds of nights of years at Hilton's. But I've never stayed at one before where they refused to clean your room. After begging all day for someone to come clean it I came back and they hadn't even made the bed. On top of that the restaurant is closed for renovations.

I'm a lifetime diamond member who spends hundreds of nights of years at Hilton's. But I've never stayed at one before where they refused to clean your room. After begging all day for someone to come clean it I came back and they hadn't even made the bed. On top of that the restaurant is closed for renovations. There are basically no facilities so your daily allowance for food and beverage is completely worthless. I've never had a worst hotel experience strongly, recommend avoiding this place. Read less

Located on Collins Ave in Mid beach of Miami. Sagamore hotel shares beach access with Gale hotel guest. Valet parking is $40+ a day and it takes 30 minutes before car is pulled around, so be sure to call for car well in advance of departing. Staff is nice.

Not on any level of Hilton property standards at all. This hotel physically left me ill due to mold exposure. We had some mold along the ceiling and corner in our first room.

Not on any level of Hilton property standards at all. This hotel physically left me ill due to mold exposure. We had some mold along the ceiling and corner in our first room. We requested to be relocated which they did do for us, however, I felt like the gentleman at the front desk considered me a nuisance. When we finally moved our stuff from one room to the other I was appalled by our hallway and new room. There was physical leaking of water under the door to the pool area- stopped up by globs of towels at the door. The hallway had water dripping from an access panel in the ceiling with visible mold all over it. All of the doorframes in the hallway had so much mold I could physically wipe it from the door frames. I have stayed at a hut in the rainforest with no electricity and no running water and I’d stay there a million times over before returning to this unhealthy hotel. Don’t expect the hotel to communicate with you because they just won’t respond. Hilton corporate says it’s a sensitive matter and needs to be handled by the hotel….. save the trouble and stay anywhere else. Read less

Great service at front desk and in restaurant. Frank and Priscilla at front desk were outstanding. Rooftop pool with view - wonderful! The place had a warm, welcoming, timeless elegance.

We stayed for 2 nights, we booked 1 double and 1 twin room. Both rooms were clean and comfortable. The reception team were incredibly friendly and helpful. Only issue we had was that the blind wouldn't open in the bedroom and toilet door wouldn't shut properly in the double room, but to be honest didn't cause us any problems.

The hotel was very quiet at night and we all slept well. We would definitely return. Read less
