My husband and I were at The Atlantic for 3 nights but it was so fantastic, it felt much longer. Super friendly, helpful staff, perfect location (no car needed; can walk to great restaurants, the beach, nightlife, etc). Room was right above the pool but very quiet. Extremely classy without being pretentious and uppity. Amazing place for a romantic getaway, I can't wait to go back.

This was by far the best service I have EVER received at any hotel. Hotel was beautiful and clean. We came from an awful hotel down the street and the staff at this hotel was sooo welcoming and even checked us in by noon. We received an incredible room with an even better view! Comfortable bed and great bathroom. I highly recommend this hotel to everyone!!

valet parking $28 a day is kind of steep especially that is the only option we were given and it get expensive when you are there for a week or more

We thoroughly enjoyed our six night stay at The Atlantic, prior to Memorial Day weekend. Upon entering the hotel, the stage was set, as there was: nice relaxing music, a clean smell in the air and beautiful features throughout: marble floor, classy lighting and a friendly staff. Our room had just a partial view of the ocean, but it was still breathtaking from our balcony. The room itself was great, so much room: a huge bathroom, with a shower and a bathtub, a separate room with the toilet, a big bedroom (with a comfortable king sized bed), a nice partial kitchen (fridge, w/ ice maker, sink, free coffee, microwave, stove top) and a nice television (which they will be upgrading to flat screens soon) and BOSE cd/alarm clock. The staff was very professional, friendly and quick to react to any questions and requests we had. We did find out that the management for this hotel changed hands some time ago, so perhaps the reviewer (with the bed bugs) who stayed in the hotel in 2007, was received by the old management. Per the staff, the management now in place is very concerned with making everything perfect and paying attention to all details. An example was during one of the nights, we had some really rude neighbors that decided to have Euro-Techno-Party 2009 next door to us, with their BOSE absolutely cranked at 1 am in the morning, which was quite annoying. We called down to the front desk and they apologized for the inconvenience and immediately dispersed security upstairs to "deal with the situation"; sure it took 15 minutes for those assclowns to hear the knocking from security / phone calls from the front desk, but when they answered the door, they did turn down the music. Another example of the management’s commitment to detail occurred when our automatic ice machine didn’t function correctly; a handyman was dispersed to our room, he cleaned/repaired the machine. After the ice machine failed to work, he switched fridges for us and even when that didn’t work (probably something wrong with the piping); room service came to our room and filled up our freezer with ice. The food was very untypical of hotel food, as the items on the menu were delicious, equivalent to that of an upscale dining establishment. The food was pricey, but the quality was excellent. As far as other restaurants were concerned, all we had to do was jump in cab and be brought to Las Olas Blvd for other options, but that became pricey (for the taxi rides); so we walked down the strip a few nights and ate at a few different establishments, which were good. The hotel's bars provides its guests with happy hour, during the week, 4pm - 7pm, in which they have reduced prices for: beer, wine, martini's and well drinks (rum & coke, vodka & soda water, etc); plus they do not skimp on the alcohol whatsoever. On the fifth floor, the hotel has a spa, fitness center and outside there is pool, sun chairs and a nice bar, but the big selling point was just being across the street from the beach, which while the weather during our stay was sub par; the sun was still out during the morning/early afternoon, but the weather became quite unpredictable during the afternoons. The hotel provided plenty of beach towels, in addition to free water and fruit (oranges, apples). We certainly want to come back to this hotel in a few years and if the weather cooperates, take in some water sports, the glass bottom boat and take in an airboat ride in the Everglades. We would not want to try a different hotel, whether we would save a few bucks or not, The Atlantic is a beautiful establishment, which is committed to service excellence to all of their guests and making their stays memorable.

This was my first visit to the Atlantic Hotel. My check in was for 4Pm, My Room was not ready until 4:45 PM. We were not off to a good start. When I did get my Room key I was told PARKING would be an additional $28.00 per day. Not that its a lot of money, but for some maybe this changes the rate going into this deal. Now my stay was bumped up over $300.00 a night. After I finally got to my room, things were looking up. The room was big, beautiful, clean, and new. The hotel Service was great, the Location was great, right across the street from the beach, lots of restaurants, and next door to the Bonnet House (which I suggest you visit) The Hotel restaurant had great good food, good service but a little pricey.. Overall I would go back just for the cleanliness. Good Job Atlantic

what a shame, this is a LOVELY hotel who's owners decided to quit Starwood and therefore lose my monthly stay.

Checked in and was very pleased w my room - that lasted 30 minutes. The people next door were making so much noise that after 45 minutes I called the front desk. The answer I received "I can not control what's going on on the next room". I sort of agree but for $300 a night was not the answer I should have been given. After 15 minutes into the conversation I requested to be moved - she was not getting the point. I was informed that there were no other rooms. Ten more minutes into the conversation another room shows up. The difference in the quality of the rooms was inmense. Ripped and stained carpet, covered balcony and lower level floor. Did not call back to complain because it is not my style.

The service while entering the hotel was wonderful. However, since check in wasn't until 4pm. We had to sit outside and wait for almost an hour. Since, this was our first time visit Florida and it was a gorgeous sunny Florida day we didn't mind. honestly, I wish we had known so we could have packed our swimsuits in a small piece of luggage and spent the hour by the pool. The room was amazing! We had plenty of space!!! The room was a tad bit dusty. But very well decorated. You wouldn't realize you were staying in a hotel. However, something to be noted they have a BOSE CD player, so bring CDs. Also, the walls are very thin, so you can hear what the room next door is up to. Also walking in the hallways you can hear who is taking a shower. The pool is very nice! It is about 4 ft deep. And you have a beautiful view of cruise ships coming or leave port, and disppearing into the water. Right across Route A1A (a busy 4 lane road) is the Fort Lauderdale beach! The chairs and umbrellas are for rent, the prices were quite hefty. Otherwise there wasn't much to do without a car in this area of Fort Lauderdale. We took the water taxi. We took the full trip around and then got off at the location with the mall. It was a nice area. Definatley you must visit Las Olas BLVD. Also, there are no grocery stores in the vicinity of the hotel.

From arrival to departure, we were treated like royalty. Staff knew our names, and were helpful at every turn: booked our golf, our evening cruise, got directions. New menu was excellent (dinner, breakfast), but pricey. Turndown in the evenings was right on time, and plenty of towels!! Ambiance and privacy was just what my wife and I needed for a winter break. Thank you, Atlantic Resort and Spa, for an hospitable stay.

Other than an unpleasant exchange with a sirly staff member, I must say this is one of the most incredible hotels I have stayed anywhere. The hotel is an architectural masterpice.
