Miami hotel epic or intercontinental

[funatsea01]

Has anyone stayed at either of these? The price is about the same so I'm trying to decide which one.

Intercontinental is a LOVELY property---very "upscale" and the folks are very friendly. It's an easy walk through a small part to Bayside Marketplace (right on the harbor) and you have a view of port from the upper levels of the hotel. We find it very convenient! A cab to port costs about $8 or so.

Thanks, The Intercontinental does look like it is a little closer to bayside market then the EPIC and both hotels look very nice now I just need a little help in deciding.

I've never heard of the EPIC, but I have stayed at the Intercontinental several times and I highly recommend it:)

We stay at the Intercontinental when we cruise out of Miami......awesome hotel, port view, right on the water and next door to Bayside Village........

Can't say enough about the awesome staff......

The Intercontinental is on EasyClickTravel dot com.

 

For February school vacation, we got a $450.00 room for $179.00, then were upgraded to a suite when we got there.

 

Definitely try that site to book - the deals are fantastic.

I booked the Intercontinental for next Feb before our cruise on the Norwegian Pearl for $138 on h*twire.c*m.

 

I'd look there also.

No, only certain sides have a port view. The Intercontinental is wonderful. Spacious rooms, beautiful lobby, roof garden with a walking path and pool - I would stay there again any time!

 

Don't confuse the Intercontinental with the Continental Bayside - two VERY different places. :p The Continental Bayside consistently makes all sorts of worst hotel and dirtiest hotel lists - reading reviews of it is almost comical if you didn't feel so bad for the poor people that got stuck there.

Love the Intercontinental. We get the best price of all----$00.00 and get special check-in. My husband travels for his company and they stay in the Intercontinental Hotel brand. Company pays we get the perks.

Have never stayed at the Epic but have stayed at the Intercontinental and will be doing so again in February. Very nice hotel and handy to everything. If you can get a decent price, you can't go wrong.
