Weather Alert?

It always amazes me, living here in South Florida, how poor a job our local TV stations do for our visitors. If you saw the news over the past few days you would be forgiven for wanting to run out of town and head for the hills - a hurricane forms hundreds of miles away and the newsmen are thrown into frenzy! I guess it sells air time and advertising! Anyway, to get back to reality - yes there is a hurricane out there right now - "Earl" but as you can see from this hurricane forecast good old earl is heading north and South Florida is well out of the for cast track. So we can only predict good weather and a warm welcome at our Miami Beach Hotel this coming weekend! Hope to see you by the pool!

Wi Fi

The Marseilles Miami Beach Hotel is proud to offer Wi Fi access throughout the hotel property at a great value of on $12 for your entire stay - some hotels charge that each day! This is just another way we can provide convenience and value to our guests .

If you've been watching the news, with all the hype you'd think we had a hurricane coming our way - nothing could be further from the truth - we have beautiful weather and no storm threats whatsoever - so book your trip and we'll have a chair for you by the pool!

Marseilles Hotel Review

Here's a recent review from some of our Miami Beach Hotel guests to share:


We had an amazing view from our room of south beach and the room was nice and cozy. There's a pool and a bar and a hammocks for relaxing right in back of the hotel.There's a refrigerator in the room already filled with goodies the hotel provides, we didn't use them we just put our own beverages in there. The hotel staff was nice as well. We asked them how much it would be for an upgrade to an ocean view room and they gave it to us for free.The hotel was about four blocks from ocean drive but the walk is very breezy and you get to enjoy all of the stores as you walk. Maxines right across the street had the best breakfast so that's definitely the place to eat for brunch. Cameo and Mansion are around the corner from the hotel on Washington street, so everything is basically in walking distance

Labor Day

Oil Spill Update

Gulf Oil Spill Update

The Greater Miami Convention & Visitors Bureau is monitoring closely the oil spill currently affecting the Gulf of Mexico.

August 2, 2010
NOAA: Gulf’s Surface Oil Not a Threat to Southern Florida, Keys, and East Coast

Southern Florida, the Florida Keys, and the East Coast of Florida (including Miami-Dade County) are not likely to experience any effects from the remaining oil on the surface of the Gulf of Mexico as the oil continues to degrade and is hundreds of miles away from the loop current, according to a new NOAA analysis. This analysis assumes the Deepwater Horizon/BP wellhead will remained capped.

“For southern Florida, the Florida Keys, and the Eastern Seaboard, the coast remains clear,” said Jane Lubchenco, Ph.D., under secretary of commerce for oceans and atmosphere and NOAA administrator. “With the flow stopped and the loop current a considerable distance away, the light sheen remaining on the Gulf’s surface will continue to biodegrade and disperse, but will not travel far.”

A large loop current eddy, called Eddy Franklin, has pinched off and detached from the loop current. As of July 25, Eddy Franklin was more than 100 miles from the nearest surface oil associated with the Deepwater Horizon BP source.

Until the loop current fully reforms, there is no clear way for oil to be transported to southern Florida or beyond, which is not projected to occur for several months. At that point, essentially all of the remaining surface oil will have dissipated.

NOAA has officially removed South Florida including Miami-Dade County from the trajectory path for the Deep Horizon Oil Spill. To date, there is no impact to Miami’s Atlantic shores, and all accommodations, restaurants and attractions--- as well as our 23 miles of pristine beaches from Key Biscayne to South Beach and to Sunny Isles ---remain 100% open for your pleasure.
