"The Catalina is a rock 'n' roll mod fantasy: There's red shag carpeting everywhere, curvy white furniture, and thumping music in the lobbies and out by the pool."
Upper-middle-range
"Designed for randy 20-somethings who can rage until 4 a.m., the Catalina can be a godsend." Full review
"The Catalina takes the value-added approach to South Beach nightlife and succeeds without feeling cheap or cheesy." Full review
"The flagship boutique of the South Beach Group, the Catalina is fun, trendy and affordable, if a bit rough around the edges." Full review

Ask for a quiet room if you don't like a party.
"The location here, across the beach from the Marseilles and kitty-corner from the Delano and SLS, is about as close to the heat as you can get without having your hand in the fire." Full review
"It is actually, as its budget prices suggest, across Collins Avenue from this uptown Sobe strip's ultra-upscale oceanfront hotels."
"Here is where you stay if you want to do all the chic hotel bar-hopping at the Delano, Shore Club, et. al, but would rather not pay to stay there."
"The Catalina is the budget party spot in the heart of South Beach's hottest block and attracts plenty of 20somethings with its free nightly drink hour." Full review
"Tendy hipster art deco hotel without the trendy hipster prices."
"As for the cost, it’s the perks that make the Catalina worth the price tag, which is reasonable compared to its oceanfront neighbors." Full review

"Much to everyone's surprise, the latest offering from the Morgans Hotel Group of Delano fame isn't just another humdrum, been-there-done-that homage to all things painfully trendy." Full review
"With a fairy tale–inspired design by Dutch superstar Marcel Wanders, the Mondrian is a sexy outpost of manufactured South Beach hipness."
"The "wow" factor is ubiquitous throughout Wanders's eccentric vision of Sleeping Beauty's castle near the shores of South Beach." Full review

"Its impeccable service, kitchen-equipped rooms, and notable after-parties at the Sunset Lounge draw well-heeled singles." Full review
"Despite its name, this 335-room hotel on West Avenue is several blocks from the South Beach melee." Full review
"Much like its sibling Delano, Mondrian South Beach puts style and ambience at the forefront of any guest experience." Full review
"This member of the trendy Morgans Hotel Group provides the perfect balance of location, luxury and lifestyle amenities for business travelers, socialites and families alike."
"Fontainebleau and now Morgan’s Hotel Group brings their sexy, successful brand to mellow, tree-shaded, 90%-residential West Avenue."
4.0
"A "desirable", "posh" clientele indulge in "cool", "sophisticated" luxury at this "trendy" space designed by Marcel Wanders."
"Set apart from the teeming ocean side of South Beach, the Mondrian holds a plum spot on the isle’s opposite shore along Biscayne Bay, with views of the glass towers of downtown." Full review
