• The concierge, was extremely helpful and informative.
• The desk staff in the evening did not know anything about the local area or things to do.

“The Hyatt Pier 66 in Fort Lauderdale, FL is a beautiful hotel with well manicured grounds and lovely oversized rooms. The location of the hotel requires a 1/2 mile walk to restaurants off of the property.”

• The renovations are amazing, nice rooms in front of the pool area..
• The room wasn't clean (especially the floor), but they send someone quickly to fix it.

“Very close to the beach, very good service, very nice rooms in front of the pool, quick service the only problem was the cleanest of the floor.”

• Beautiful grounds. Would be a nice place to start a lux hotel.
• Stains on room carpet, expensive parking.

“Didn't like the $10 charge for the work out room and the $20 breakfast buffet is a bit high.”

“We stayed here for one night and they upgraded us into one of the lanai rooms with a view of the marina. Coming from a bad experience in Miami, I must say, this was wonderful all around. Staff, facilities, food, coffee, room, shower, everything, absolutely loved it and wished I was staying for the whole week. The pool was great, yummy pina coladas. I would stay here again in a heartbeat! The pictures on the web depict exactly what you see in your rooms. Bear in mind that we were in a recently updated room so that is a question you might want to ask. We were not in the tower. I just got home tonight and I miss it already!”

• The pool area was amazing; it felt like you where in your own private oasis.
• I liked everything.

“The service was great, A+. The pool area is like being in a resort and the rooms where big with a great big comfy bed. I would stay here every time I go to Fort Lauderdale. I personally recommend the rooms that are only two stories tall that surround the pool area. Those are the ones we stayed in and they overlook the pool and have easy access to the pool also. It was very tranquil.”

• Staff were extremely nice and helpful - never seen this before (all of staff polite).
• Room musty smelling, told ours was upgraded but hard-pressed to believe that.

“Clean, staff great, close to cruise port which was needed but not to anything else which made it difficult to go anywhere. Room had things needing repair, i.e. shutters at door, no chairs for sitting outside (rooms next to ours did), pool area nice. Room overall was okay but I wouldn't consider it 4 star - maybe 3 1/2.”

“When renovations are complete it will be fine. Dining options were expensive and very few choices on menu. No kids menus. Staff at front desk were nice and helpful. We used taxi to get around. Shuttle service to beach was not convenient and no one knew.”

• The pool was amazing. Not too crowded the wk we were there until that Friday.
• The location to the beach/restaurants could be better. But they have a shuttle/taxi's always available.

“The Hyatt Regency Pier 66 was better than I expected. After the reviews I read, I was skeptical of the hotel. But I made sure to request Tower rooms two weeks before we left and was accommodated accordingly. The staff couldnt be nicer. They helped with every question. I traveled with a group of 5 in our late 20's/early 30's and we were really happy with the pool and a little disappointed that the hotel bar closed at 11pm. The location is a cab ride away from most restaurants, except their own. The Pelican Landing has a great view of the Drawbridge and Cruise ships leaving. They do offer a free shuttle to the beach every hour which is helpful. But we only took it once because the pool was too nice to leave. The pool bar was nice and the drink prices do run a little high, but that is to be expected. Overall, the room was clean and we would return to this hotel if we come back to Fort Lauderdale.”

• The service was exceptional. Very attentive to your every need.
• The room itself did not live up to the expectations I had when looking at the hotel.

“From the time I pulled up to valet, everyone was very nice and helpful. I live very close to the city I was in at the hotel, and I really felt as if I was out of town on a vacation. Very attentive in every aspect. On the downside, I made it a point to get a nice room, and I was elated as I walked through the hotel to the ninth floor. I was disappointed when I opened my room door. It was obvious I paid for the hotel's beauty and ambience, not the room. But it was a pleasant stay nonetheless!”

• Food was excellent, staff was friendly, and nice facilities.
• 0.8 miles away from the beach.

“I was concerned when I read the reviews, however, when I stayed at this hotel, I was glad that I stayed at this hotel. Yes; the hotel was 0.8 miles away from the beach, and yes; my room faced the pool, no ocean view. However, the staff was kind and friendly. The construction seemed to be finished. I was able to check in early at 12:00, and they got rid of the required wireless internet connection charge. The food at Grill 66 and Pelican's Landing was excellent. I would love to comeback for the food. The facilities were nice. And the gas station right across the street had drinks and snacks, so if you want to save some money, you can get them from the store. Also, the pool was nice. We went swimming three days in a row. Overall, it was a pleasant experience; I would definitely comeback next year.”

• The main building and grounds were lovely and it was convenient to the airport, cruise ships and water taxi.
• The problem was with the room, the toilet rocked back and forth, the light switch into the bath was dirty, there was no outlet for the coffee maker.

“The main building and grounds (22 acres) were lovely as was the pool and Jacuzzi. The location was convenient and there were several dining choices, the room was a disappointment. The wall switch plate was dirty, the toilet rocked back and forth, there were a lack of amenities, the coffee pot was a single cup pot with no outlet close by.”

• The hotel was at a great location, and the pool area was BEAUTIFUL!
• Kind of confusing at first because it was so big.

“Pier Sixty Six was a beautiful place. It over looks the harbor on one side and the other side was a great view of the gorgeous pool area. There is a fee shuttle that takes to and from the beach area which was awesome. If you are staying for leisure you will need a rental car to check out the town.”

• Great views if you get an upgrade to stay in the tower.
• Initial room was very disappointing with little appeal or view; the food was mediocre except for the snack bar!

“Hotel is very nice and in a great intercostals waterway viewing area, but you only see it if you are up in the tower. the lower level rooms surrounding the pool don't have such a nice view. I was also disappointed to find out it was undergoing renovation and some services were not available. The price of the breakfast buffet seemed out of line ($20). Overall liked the stay because they gave us a free upgrade to the tower and the view was both beautiful and romantic.”

“The staff was very accommodating, and the room was first rate. We did not have a car for the two nights we were there, but did not need one. The concierge was extremely helpful in giving us help about tours and getting to our cruise ship. I liked the idea that the pool and outdoor restaurant were located in a "quad" type area that was protected from the outside, but was large enough so you didn't feel crowded. A very quiet, restful stay.”

• Nothing really, room was great although not overly luxurious.

“The view from the balcony is excellent, quiet and peaceful for a morning coffee and the newspaper. Bed comfortable and room quite. The pool is fantastic and the exercise room well stocked with weights and cardio machines. Staff here friendly, drinks brought to the chair at the pool but not overly in your face so you can enjoy a peaceful holiday on your own. Location great, with a car, close to stores, the beach and restaurants. I would return here again, its like an all inclusive without being trapped in one spot and dependent on one spot for entertainment.”

“Very nice hotel, would stay here again. The grounds were well kept and the pool area was beautiful. The only problem we experienced was with the water taxi service. We waited approximately 30 minutes for it to arrive and when it did, we were told that we couldn't board because it was full and that another taxi would arrive in an hour! Needless to say, we never got to ride the water taxi.”

• The hotel has been recently renovated so it's in excellent condition. Great view & pool.
• The renovation of some of the public areas is not yet complete.

“This hotel has been recently renovated so it's in excellent condition. Our room was spacious and in immaculate condition with a new flat-screen TV. Because the hotel's main high rise tower is circular, the higher up rooms in the tower (and the 360-degree observation room on the top floor) have superb views of the ocean, intercostals waterway, and/or Downtown. The only disadvantage is that the hotel is a few blocks off the ocean. The employees were efficient and courteous.”

• Grounds were beautiful.
• Room was dingy.

“The room I stayed in was not a 4 star room, 2.5 star at best. The grounds and pool were beautiful. The room was updated in places, new tile floor in the bathroom, new paint, but that's about it. Overall the room was dingy and had a medicinal smell. With this said, it looked like there were some updated rooms. My room was not located in the main hotel, it was in the farthest corner from the main hotel. I had to cross the very large yard and pool area to get to it. Needless to say as a single female traveler returning to my room fairly late I was a little concerned about my safety. I did not see any security guards walking the property and it was poorly lighted.”

“This hotel is not quite on the beach, but it is a 5 min drive to the beach, and the hotel offers a shuttle. The pool area is so nice, that you really don't even need the beach. Rooms in the tower are a nice size with large bathrooms, great balconies and flat screen TV's. While it is less than a 10 min drive to everything (Las Olas, Beach, Airport, Shopping) there is really nothing in walking distance from the hotel itself. Not a big deal for us, but might be for some.”

“The hotel was in the middle of a rehab and for the price was not worth the stay, the room was not decorated and the A.C. Unit was old and made a very loud sound and would not allow for sleep. The bed was good and the TV only got about 8 channels and the bathroom was poorly remodeled. Not what one would expect from a Hyatt. I swear I will never stay there again!”

• Not close to beach although described as "beachfront.

“The hotel seemed in need of refurbishing. Paint and tiles looked tired. The room air conditioning unit was extremely loud as it cycled on and off. Bed linens were good crisp and immaculate white. The grounds were attractive. Breakfast was a choice of a quick and limited continental breakfast (coffee in Styrofoam cups) in the lobby looking out on the grounds or a full breakfast in a windowless room. It would have been helpful to have clear information about the distance and available transportation between the hotel and the center of town.”
