Description: Treat yourself to every imaginable luxury when you book a Suite at the Congress Hotel South Beach,  located in the historic Art Deco district of Miami Beach, Florida.

Congress Hotel South Beach is the place to stay during your trip to Miami Beach, Florida.

Critique: I booked this hotel through BookIt.com.  The deal was great and my suite was breathtaking. The view of the ocean was perfect at all times of the day & night.  The suite came stocked with sodas, water, alcoholic beverages including wine and liquor.   We had separate bedroom/living space with full kitchen including full refrigerator, range and dishwasher. Even our bathroom was stylish with the isolated oval tub with overhead shower head!  It was amazing.  Not to mention the dual balcony access from the living room and the bedroom!!  Yes, we had 2 balconies.  I loved it.  The down side was the little-ass (LOL) TV’s they put on the wall.  They were like 15’ inch....LOL..Who does that!?!?!?.  Then there was the FREE Breakfast, that's included in the $25 resort fee....LOL.  I had continental breakfast at the holiday inn that was more elaborate than this.  They didn’t even have a waffle machine :-(  The roof top pool/bar is rather small. I feel that the rooms are designed beautifully, but everything else is short changed.  They really could step that breakfast game up!  I have to say that next time, I’ll venture to find another space. But that oceanview is PRICELESS :-)
