Location: Brickell vs South Beach

SLS Brickell – Location

SLS Brickell sits in the Brickell neighborhood, close to business, restaurants, and waterfront promenades.

  • Walkable to Brickell City Centre, Miami Riverwalk, and the Metromover for downtown connections.
  • Not on the Atlantic ocean — beaches require a drive (roughly 15–20 minutes to South Beach by car).
  • Good base for business travel, museums, and Miami’s financial district nightlife.

Choose SLS Brickell when you want a downtown, walkable Miami base rather than a beach center.

Delano Miami Beach – Location

Delano Miami Beach sits on Collins Avenue in South Beach, within immediate reach of sand, restaurants, and Lincoln Road.

  • About a 1-minute drive to Lincoln Road Mall and a short walk to Miami Beach and the boardwalk.
  • Set amid the South Beach corridor for easy access to Ocean Drive, Art Deco District, and nightlife.
  • Suits travelers planning to spend most of their time on the beach or in South Beach venues.

Choose Delano for direct South Beach access and classic Collins Avenue location.

Rooms: downtown suites and compact rooms

SLS Brickell – Rooms

SLS Brickell's room lineup emphasizes city-view rooms, studios and two-bedroom suites.

  • Room types include Studio (Lux), Room (Lux), and Suite, 2 Bedrooms (Lux).
  • Rooms provide free Wi‑Fi and access to rooftop and city views.
  • Space and layouts cater to both solo business travelers and small groups/families.

Rooms at SLS Brickell lean toward city- and skyline-focused layouts suited to downtown stays and events.

Delano Miami Beach – Rooms

Delano offers a wider variety of room types including many ocean- and partial-sea-view options and several suite/penthouse choices.

  • Room types include City View, Partial Ocean View, Ocean View, and multiple suite and penthouse configurations.
  • Many rooms feature premium bedding, minibars, and rainfall showerheads according to the supplier listing.
  • Options include bungalows and multi-bedroom suites for families or groups.

Delano has more room-type variety for ocean views and multi-bedroom stays; good for travelers who prioritize seaside rooms.

Dining & drinks: rooftop bars vs resort dining

SLS Brickell – Dining & drinks

SLS Brickell centers much of its food-and-drink scene on a rooftop lounge and on-site restaurants.

  • Altitude Pool & Lounge is a rooftop pool restaurant/bar with panoramic downtown views and live entertainment.
  • On-site dining historically included Italian and seafood concepts (Fi'lia, Bazaar Mar listed in legacy info).
  • Multiple event and lounge venues support private dining, happy hour and late-night options.

SLS Brickell is a good pick if you want rooftop dining and city-view drinking spots tied to nightlife.

Delano Miami Beach – Dining & drinks

Delano offers two restaurants, two bars/lounges, and 24-hour room service in a resort setting near the beach.

  • Full breakfasts are available (fee applies) and a coffee shop/cafe and snack options are on site.
  • Poolside bar service and beachside food/drink options are typical for South Beach resorts.
  • Late-night and leisurely poolside dining fit a beach-resort schedule rather than a downtown nightclub schedule.

Delano works well for guests who want resort-style dining and pool/beach service near South Beach venues.

Pools & beach: rooftop pool deck vs beachfront pools

SLS Brickell – Pools & beach

SLS Brickell’s pools are a rooftop feature focused on city views and programmed pool events.

  • Two outdoor rooftop pools with cabanas available for surcharge and a rooftop poolside bar.
  • Pool programming has included DJs, weekend events, and fitness/wellness sessions.
  • The hotel does not offer ocean swimming — beach trips require a short drive.

Pick SLS Brickell for rooftop pool experiences and city skyline views rather than ocean swimming.

Delano Miami Beach – Pools & beach

Delano combines resort pools with easy beach access and beach cabana options.

  • Supplier listing shows two outdoor pools, pool cabanas and poolside bar service.
  • Short walk to Miami Beach with beach umbrellas, loungers and cabana options (surcharges apply).
  • Pool and beach mix is central to the Delano guest experience on Collins Avenue.

Delano is the better choice when you want both pool relaxation and direct beach access.

Wellness & nightlife: spa, fitness, and evening scene

SLS Brickell – Wellness & nightlife

SLS Brickell balances spa and fitness amenities with an active rooftop nightlife scene.

  • Full-service spa and steam room (legacy Ciel Spa references), fitness center and yoga/fitness classes.
  • On-site tennis court and wellness programming historically listed.
  • The rooftop lounge and on-site lounges host DJs and evening events.

SLS Brickell pairs spa and wellness with an active rooftop/nightlife program for mixed-purpose stays.

Delano Miami Beach – Wellness & nightlife

Delano offers fitness facilities and resort-style leisure with less emphasis on downtown nightclub programming.

  • 24-hour health club and beach/pool programming; spa details are limited in the supplier listing.
  • Resort tends to draw pool-and-beach daytime crowds and evening dining rather than rooftop club nights.
  • Spa and wellness options are available but not fully detailed in the supplier feed.

Delano emphasizes daytime resort wellness and beach activity; detailed spa program information should be confirmed with the property.
