South Beach, Shore Club - Help!!
 

Does anyone have any comments on the Shore Club. My wife and I (both late 20's) are planning a to stay either there or at the Delano for two nights later this week. I have not been able to find much on the Shore Club either on the board or in Rants & Raves. Any suggestions about one hotel over the other? I can get the Shore Club for $80 less per night, which is not that big of a deal if the Delano will provide a better experience. Please help.

Adam<BR>GET A LIFE!! I answered your question yesterday and here you are again today.What is UP!! Cant you see--the REAL posters--or &quot;Fodorites&quot;--as they call themselves are TOOOOOOOOOOOO busy with REAL problems------the Xmas lights in Branson, the OldFart who sits around &quot;topping&quot; all day,the broad who cancelled hwe wedding and doesnt know what to do with the HoneyMoon.YOU&quot;LL HAVE TO WAIT!!!! <BR>Go for the Delano and tellme about it.You deserve it, after having to wait this long for an answer and having been IGNORED.Well, I tried to help you anywayz.

We're giving you your answer Adam. You will be as ignored at the Delano and the Shore Club as you are here. They aren't for you.<BR><BR>You have heard of the old saying &quot;If you have to ask....&quot;

I understand that both are hip &amp; happening - that is why I am trying to decide between the two. It is not like I am asking about the Delano and the Saxony. I have just not heard much about the Shore Club. One thing I heard was that there is a tremendous amount of noise all day from construction next door. if that is still the case, I would want to know.

Hey..actually i am going to the shore club on the 22nd of dec. I have heard a lot of great things about it. It is suppose to be a hotel that a lot of celebs stay at. My sister travels a lot to hot spots and she insisted that we stay there.

Delanos has very swishy lobby but if you do not have an ocean view, forget it. Why pay $300+ to look out on to Collins Av. We had a drink there and the waitress was a total idiot &quot;whats a Tia Maria.. a cordial&quot; &quot;we do not have it&quot;, after confidently stating they &quot;had everything&quot;. Sorry what does everthing taste like. We stayed at Doubletree Surfcomber 3 doors down at $98 per night. Yes not exactly trendy, but beds were super comfortable and really quiet room in courtyard area. Bigger rooms than The Hotel at over $200.

Adam and Dorna, Can I ask what rates (and where) you got for both hotels? My husband and I are planning a quick and cheap getaway next month to Sobe and my plan was to stay at the Loews or the National, which I'm confident I can get through Priceline, but now he's saying he wants to stay at the Delano. I thought it was $400 or $500 a night, am I wrong?

Schrager Hotels NEVER have &quot;specials&quot; according to a staff memeber I sat next to on a flight MIA-LAX.He said thats the whole shtick with their hotels--hip,hip, and more hip.It fits, though.Hip euqals high rates.At the Delano, CityView Room $425/Partial OceanView $450 and OceanView $550.I wont be staying there and I'm just passing on what was said to me.

My, my -- and all that money for a hotel that has small rooms and resembles a hospital ward with all that WHITE everywhere!!
