cruisecookie Posted January 6, 2017 #1 Share Posted January 6, 2017 What is the best way to travel from MIA (airport) to the Hampton Inn in downtown Miami/Brickell? It's just 2 of us. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eandj Posted January 6, 2017 #2 Share Posted January 6, 2017 Cab. Probably around $25. Uber would run less. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JohninDC Posted January 6, 2017 #3 Share Posted January 6, 2017 (edited) Best is in a stretch limo with stocked bar! Here's an Uber fare estimator I use: http://uberestimate.com/ Plug in MIA and the hotel address and it will give you options (UberX, UberXL, Uber pool, etc.) Edited January 6, 2017 by JohninDC Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CruiserBruce Posted January 6, 2017 #4 Share Posted January 6, 2017 Best is in a stretch limo with stocked bar! Agree. Nobody ever defines "best"... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare sid_9169 Posted January 6, 2017 #5 Share Posted January 6, 2017 (edited) For less than $5 you could take the Metrorail (Orange Line) from MIA to the Brickell Station, which is less than 1 block away from your hotel...

awhcruiser Posted May 26, 2017 #6 Share Posted May 26, 2017 May not be an option with lots of luggage! :halo: For less than $5 you could take the Metrorail (Orange Line) from MIA to the Brickell Station, which is less than 1 block away from your hotel...

Rare Host CJSKIDS Posted May 26, 2017 #7 Share Posted May 26, 2017 Uber will be around $17. Cab will be around $27 If you don't have a lot of luggage you can take the Metrorail (orange line) but I would only do this without lots of luggage and without it being rush hour or late at night.

Rare Noxequifans Posted May 26, 2017 #8 Share Posted May 26, 2017 When you are in a hurry to get to your hotel perhaps a cab is your answer .... very little waiting. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VideoTech Posted May 26, 2017 #9 Share Posted May 26, 2017 For less than $5 you could take the Metrorail (Orange Line) from MIA to the Brickell Station, which is less than 1 block away from your hotel... If you elect to do Metrorail, be aware that the train does not leave from the airport terminal area. It leaves from what is commonly known as the "Rental Car Center" although it's also called the "Multi-modal transportation center" (Don't you just love the cute name?) :) To get there, look for signs in the terminals directing you to the "train to rental car center."

Sabres fan Posted May 27, 2017 #10 Share Posted May 27, 2017 You can try Supershuttle.com. Just did mine yesterday and was only $15.50. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What do you consider late at night, is the issue safety? We are light packers and fairly fit but late 50's. Spouse and I have done trains in Europe and in Vancouver from airport to hotels or cruise port but don't really know Miami. Flight arrives at 8:30 pm going to a hotel 500 ft from a station Sent from my iPad using Forums Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

An Uber will cost $15 dollars or so and be much quicker. I would spend the extra $10.00 and just take an Uber to downtown. Taxi will be close to $30.00 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare Host CJSKIDS Posted August 31, 2017 #13 Share Posted August 31, 2017 I had a 7 am flight from MIA to JFK and didn't feel like dealing with Uber as I've had some issues lately. I asked one of our front desk guys at our condo building on Brickell if he had anyone. Booked him yesterday and at 5:25 am he was at our building. Large suburban with bottles of water stocked for us. Amazing experience. It was $32 from let's say the JW Marriott|hampton in Brickell area to MIA. I will be using him for our return. Diego is his name and his number is 786-886-6301 or 786-877-8070 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
