Good location, old art deco style place.   Probably time to buy new linen though….

It was helpful that they treated me kindly even though I can't speak English.
It was close to the downtown area, so I enjoyed my trip.

Super bad service:
- I booked a room with breakfast on Trip.com but the staff said it didn't have any, they didn't care when I showed the confirmed booking from Trip.com. I had to explain and complain, even had to contact the trip.com hotline to get it resolved.
- For breakfast, I had to get a voucher and password to go to another hotel behind this hotel, enter the password inside, then submit the voucher and choose the dishes for the staff to give me, it felt like begging
- I mistakenly booked 3 nights but only stayed 2 nights, I requested to get another room for my child to deduct 1 night and I would pay for another night, instead of getting 1 room, it became 2 rooms, the hotel didn't resolve it. I contacted the hotel nearly 2 weeks before the check-in date, there was a staff member who answered but then didn't resolve it for me or respond to me. Many days later, I called but no staff answered the phone. Even when checking in, it still couldn't be resolved. In short, I will never recommend this hotel to friends or relatives. It is true that the hotel is located near the beach, but there are many other better hotels around, or choose a hotel a few meters further away and walk to the beach, which is cheaper and has better service.

This hotel is not a great place to stay. I was supposed to be provided breakfast for 4, and was told the food menu stopped at least a month ago. To obtain the free beverages, I was told I had to wait until after 4:00 pm, and we were leaving by 11:00 am. Everything that we would need for the pool and the beverages would have to be obtained from a different hotel. We were placed on the first floor with a 2-year-old and a 4-year-old old which required us to lug luggage up two sets of three steps with the kids. Just horrible. In addition to the high cost of staying there with promised amenities, I was then charged a service fee on top of everything else. I feel that, without all of the amenities promised that I paid for, I am due a partial refund. I have stayed here on numerous occasions, but this was by far the worst experience and I will not return or recommend.

Staying in Penguin Hotel is very convenient since it is really closed by at the Beach and nearby outlets. However, when we were checking in the lady who assisted us didn’t explained well the informations. And every night there’s no front desk. But overall stay it’s really good the free breakfast was really good I will definitely recommend.

I would not recommend this place to an animal. Staff is very rude. Called multiple times to get quotes and nothing was consistent. No one answered the phone after 20 min of being on hold. Staff is horrible, do not book. Spend your money with business that appreciate customers because this one clearly Doesn't.

Don't ever stay at this hotel. Their policy is not flexible in a time of emergency and unexpected events. There is no negotiation for their unreasonable deposit - so that is $722 down the tubes for not even stepping foot in their hotel, or let alone boarding a plane from Baltimore after the recent weather situation that occurred. I would have considered staying here again if the policy was different. but I will most certainly not consider that again.

My husband and I had a wonderful stay at Penguin hotel. The staff were friendly and accommodating. The rooms were very clean, bed and pillows were comfortable and continental breakfast was more than I expected. Location was perfect especially as we didn’t have a car. Right across from the ocean and central spot for restaurants and shops all within walking distance. Penguin hotel is definitely on my list for my next stay in my Miami. It’s super cute and has left a great memory for both my husband and I of Miami!

Walked in for breakfast in a Sunday morning around 8:30 am. The patio was already full so we sat inside. Service was excellent and so was the coffee. I had the avocado toast and a side of scrambled eggs. Eggs were the best I’d had for breakfast my entire trip. The avocado toast was SO GOOD and I’d definitely order it again if I go back.

Pretty easily the best brunch location in South Beach. Saturday is busiest, with a wait time of up to 30 minutes, but there are parlour games while you wait and the food is worth it. Try the chicken satay omelet!! Beware, prices may be a bit higher than a standard breakfast on the strip, however.

Decent place to have breakfast. The service is fast and the line moves quickly. At the northern part of Ocean Drive, it's a good place to grab a bite before an art deco stroll.

While visiting Miami for the weekend, I tried this place and it was really great! The portions were big but the food was light so it didn't make me feel like I ate too much. The atmosphere is very cozy and the staff is friendly. I would definitely come back in the future!

Delicious breakfast foods served all day. I recommend the French toast - the orange zest gives it such a lovely flavor. I also suggest happy hour for half off drinks from 4-7pm. Our server was Stefan - he was so sweet & appropriately attentive. Will be back for sure.

Great taste of the burgers, although our's looked a bit weird. It'a about the sauce I guess. But the meat is quiet delicious and you can add as much toppings as you want. Therefore the price is absolutely acceptable. Recommend a stop there :)
23.11.2017 Karla
Love this place. A bit expensive for your average street burger but the fries are awesome. Careful not to mistake the small fries for actual small fries, they're huge! (Pro tip: cajun fries are too spicy so if you don't love spicy you might not wanna get a whole bunch of these)

I brought my students here a few months ago, and nothing was ready. I was willing to overlook it, as the workers got everything out quickly, but now the website is down as I'm trying to place another group order. I called earlier, and someone (I think a manager?) told me if the website wasn't working, I could call back and order. Well, the website still isn't working, and I called back. The girl who answered the phone told me I couldn't place an order for 15 people over the phone. When I told her that the last guy I talked to said I could, she said something unintelligible. When I asked her to repeat herself, she rudely said "can I take your ORDER??" So I said never mind and hung up. I'll go across the street to the other burger place. I have 23 teenagers to deal with tomorrow, and I didn't need the process of ordering hamburgers to be a stressful one.

Dinner was fabulous and our servers were fantastic! Very knowledgeable of the menu and provided excellent service. There was some miscommunication regarding the pasta my friend ordered, and they took it back immediately and created a fresh order of the correct one. The pasta was fresh and tasted delicious! Highly recommend!

Delicious tortellini and bruschetta. Beautiful and quiet ambiance. Great service! Would definitely recommend!

We had planned on going to a different Italian restaurant but it didn't look that nice and found this one down the street. The service was very good and the we enjoyed the food a lot. I wouldn't say it's the best Italian I've had but compared to other restaurants in the area thought it was very good and prices were reasonable. I would happily go back.

Wow, so nice to see they are still here! I love their food, and the atmosphere is wonderful. Good stuff.
