Le Meridien Dania Beach at Fort Lauderdale Airport

Did not eat breakfast there.

Nothing all was excellent.

Great location and friendly staff, especially in the cafe/restaurant and coffee bar.

The bathroom shower door leaked out onto the floor.

What I enjoyed most was the hotel’s location. The lobby was beautiful, very clean, and smelled amazing upon arrival. The food was also very good, although a bit pricey. Most importantly, the staff overall was friendly and welcoming.

Unfortunately, our stay did not meet expectations. The noise level throughout the hotel was extremely loud, and we could hear everything happening in the hallways. There appeared to be a large soccer tournament taking place, with many children running around, which made it difficult to relax. The rooms and bathrooms are also in need of some upgrades, as several areas felt outdated. The pillows were very uncomfortable, and the elevator shafts made loud unsettling noises that were honestly a bit concerning. The parking fee of $30 per night was also far too expensive, especially on top of an already high room rate. Additionally, the $200 hold placed on the card was excessive, as the standard amount is usually around $100. Breakfast service was another disappointment. Although the restaurant was not busy, the wait time was excessively long and left us with only 30 minutes before checkout. I had requested a late checkout the night before, yet by the time we returned from breakfast, our room keys had already been deactivated, which was very inconvenient. To make matters worse, our waiter barely checked on us during breakfast while appearing very attentive and accommodating to the other two tables nearby. It honestly felt as though we had been forgotten. Overall, the experience was okay, but the lack of attentiveness was a bit disappointing and ultimately caused us to feel rushed during checkout.

The hotel was nice, and a more modern design. I highly suggest try the hotel restaurant, it was delicious!

Make sure you're specific about who's all in your party when calling for the complimentary shuttle. I wasn't and ended up waiting for about 45 minutes for it. Also, the shower leaked out the side.
