cruisingisall Posted July 7, 2016 #1 Share Posted July 7, 2016 Just wondering whether there is a reasonably priced hotel near the Port of Miami for a one night stay. By reasonable, I mean less than $200 per night. Shuttle service from the airport and to the cruise terminal would be delightful as well! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would also ask on the Florida Departures forum here: http://boards.cruisecritic.com/forumdisplay.php?f=495 Some very knowledgable folks there.

Grandma Dazzles Posted July 7, 2016 #3 Share Posted July 7, 2016 Haven't sailed out of Miami for a few years, however, in the past the Holiday Inn Port of Miami was always very popular with cruisers; right across the street from Bayside Market Place. Just a very big, old HI, but well kept and popular with cruisers. Read somewhere that it was up for sale, but don't know what happened. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sixtytwo Posted July 7, 2016 #5 Share Posted July 7, 2016 The LaQuinta Miami Airport East is reasonable and offers both free breakfast and free shuttle to the port. Return shuttle to airport is also available for a small fee. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TrqoisWtrs Posted July 7, 2016 #6 Share Posted July 7, 2016 I like the Holiday Inn (recently renovated) across the street from Bayside Market, although prices can be above the $200 mark, depending on the time of year. There is also an Intercontinental down the block; I think I've read that folks can get a decent price through Priceline? Taxi from the airport to the port (and HIPOM) is flat rate of about $27 (and there is also Uber.) Taxi to the port from HIPOM is around $10. This is a good area to stay if you're not renting a car - the Bayside Market has lots of shops and restaurants, and live music so a good way to spend the day precruise. And if you get a room facing the port, you will see your ship when you wake up. :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SuiteTraveler Posted July 7, 2016 #7 Share Posted July 7, 2016 A lot of people recommend the Hampton Inn and Suites Brickell - which is in in downtown Miami but very close to the port. Breakfast is included and it is easy walking distance to various restaurants. Standard room is typically $161 on weekend nights. We don't bother with shuttles as taxis are quite inexpensive and much faster. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
