eandj Posted September 16, 2013 #2 Share Posted September 16, 2013 This coming November???? Book... yesterday. :rolleyes: Unless you are counting on Priceline or Hotwire last minute deals. Look at Intercontinental on Chopin or Holiday Inn-port of Miami for the two closest hotels to Bayside. (Just a 5 min walk away.) Take a look too at lastminutetravel.com for rates.

My dm works for Intercontinental here in Cleveland and we were trying to get her employee rate but they apparently aren't offering it that time of year:( I will keep searching. Planning to book next month at the latest. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Planning to book next month at the latest. Most of the hotels I listed are just a a few minutes further from the port than IC so I would look at pricing for each one.

Planning to book next month at the latest. Thanksgiving the week before and Art Basel the weekend after. Try the Art Basel website and see if you can get the discounted rate.

Marie51 Posted September 17, 2013 #8 Share Posted September 17, 2013 If you look at http://www.lastminutetravel.com for the date of 11/30 the Intercontinental is $149. It is the first hotel listed with a picture of a huge sculpture in the lobby. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Athena_Anton Posted September 17, 2013 #9 Share Posted September 17, 2013 We have booked the B2 Miami Hotel it is across and down a little from Bayside Market for Mid November. You should look on groupon they have good deals on hotels. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OP, using this website to book allows for cancellation upt to 3 days pre stay. Gives you a for sure place and time to look for more discounts if you want. Sounds perfect to me.;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For my upcoming cruise the IC Downtown is listed for $149 on LMT but is currently sold out through both LMT and IC directly. Thankfully we booked earlier.
