A Look Inside The Elser Hotel Miami

See all photos →

Location: Downtown bayfront vs beachfront Mid Beach

The Elser Hotel Miami – Location

The Elser sits in Downtown Miami across from Bayfront Park and a short walk to Bayside Marketplace and Kaseya Center.

  • Steps from Bayfront Park, Bayside Marketplace, and free Metromover connections.
  • Good base for museums, city attractions, and events at Kaseya Center.
  • About a 15–20 minute drive to South Beach and partner beach club access is included via the amenity fee.

Choose The Elser for city-access and quick links to downtown attractions and transit.

Nobu Hotel Miami Beach – Location

Nobu Hotel Miami Beach sits directly on Miami Beach in Mid Beach, close to the Miami Beach Boardwalk and Fontainebleau.

  • Beachfront address on Collins Avenue with direct beach proximity.
  • Within a short drive of Lincoln Road and South Beach nightlife; nearer to Mid Beach attractions like the boardwalk.
  • Preferred airport is Miami Intl. Airport (MIA) per supplier listing.

Choose Nobu for direct beach access and a Mid Beach location if you want sand-and-sea first.

Rooms: Suites and kitchens vs classic hotel rooms

The Elser Hotel Miami – Rooms

The Elser focuses on residential-style suites—many with full kitchens and in-suite laundry—across a large tower.

  • Full kitchens (fridge, oven, stovetop/microwave) and in-suite washer/dryer in every suite.
  • Multiple suite sizes including one- to three-bedroom layouts that accommodate families and groups.
  • Floor-to-ceiling windows and many private balconies with bay or city views.

The Elser is better if you want multi-bedroom suites and in-room kitchens for longer stays or family travel.

Nobu Hotel Miami Beach – Rooms

Nobu offers traditional luxury hotel rooms and suites within a beachfront resort complex.

  • 206 air-conditioned rooms reported on supplier listing with minibars and espresso makers.
  • Rooms include turndown service, safes, designer toiletries, and daily housekeeping.
  • Supplier listing does not publish specific room type names in the provided data.

Nobu suits travelers who prefer hotel-style rooms with luxury touches rather than residential kitchens.

Dining & drinks: Local favorites vs brand-driven cuisine

The Elser Hotel Miami – Dining & drinks

The Elser centers dining on ViceVersa (Italian aperitivo bar) and a rooftop Bayview Terrace with bay views.

  • ViceVersa: Italian small plates, wood-fired neo‑Neapolitan pizzas, aperitivo cocktails; open evenings.
  • Bayview Terrace provides rooftop breakfast, brunch, lunch, dinner, and sunset happy hours (guest-only access).
  • Lobby Market offers grab-and-go snacks and essentials.

The Elser emphasizes locally operated venues and a rooftop dining scene with bay views.

Nobu Hotel Miami Beach – Dining & drinks

Nobu is dining-led: the brand’s restaurants are a major draw alongside other resort outlets.

  • Supplier listing notes two restaurants and two bars/lounges on property.
  • Nobu-branded dining typically focuses on Japanese-Peruvian cuisine and signature dishes (publicly associated with the brand).
  • Buffet breakfast available for a surcharge; room service offered during limited hours.

Choose Nobu if on-site, branded dining and multiple restaurant options are priorities.

Pools & beach: Rooftop pool deck vs multiple outdoor pools

The Elser Hotel Miami – Pools & beach

The Elser’s standout amenity is a large rooftop deck with a 132-foot wraparound pool and a 16-person swim‑spa hot tub.

  • Rooftop deck ~19,000 sq. ft. with private lounge areas, full bar, LED poolscreen and family-friendly shallow entry.
  • Daily amenity fee includes rooftop pool access and partner beach club access on Miami Beach.
  • Day passes for the rooftop pool and fitness are available to non-guests through third-party channels.

The Elser is best if you want an elevated pool experience with skyline/bay views and family-friendly shallow entry.

Nobu Hotel Miami Beach – Pools & beach

Nobu’s resort arrangement includes multiple outdoor pools and direct beach access.

  • Supplier listing shows four outdoor pools, pool sun loungers, and at least one poolside bar.
  • Direct beachfront location lets guests step onto the sand without transfers.
  • Children’s pool listed on the supplier facts, indicating family-friendly pool options.

Nobu is better for guests who want variety in pool options plus immediate beach access.

Wellness & nightlife: Fitness and events vs spa and resort leisure

The Elser Hotel Miami – Wellness & nightlife

The Elser emphasizes fitness and events alongside pool and rooftop nightlife.

  • Two-story, roughly 10,000 sq. ft. 24-hour fitness complex with daily complimentary yoga and fitness classes.
  • Extensive event and wedding venues including a 3,000 sq. ft. Rooftop Lawn Deck and multiple indoor meeting rooms.
  • No named on-site full-service spa published; the property markets a swim-spa hot tub and fitness offerings.

Pick The Elser for fitness-focused stays, events, and rooftop socializing in a downtown setting.

Nobu Hotel Miami Beach – Wellness & nightlife

Nobu highlights a full-service spa and resort-style leisure programming.

  • Supplier listing includes a full-service spa with treatment rooms, steam room, and hair salon.
  • Fitness facilities plus yoga classes and other on-site activity options.
  • On-site services such as valet, concierge, and hair salon support a resort-style leisure stay.
