Miami Port and Formal night for November cruise

[darlou]

Departing Miami port on ICON OF THE SEAS in November for a 7 night / 8 Day cruise. Can anyone recommend a hotel close to the port that is not crazy expensive for one overnight stay. Also does anyone know when the Formal or Captains night is. Have not  been on a cruise in a while so it might be called something else. Thanks in advance.

Take a look down the board...there are MANY threads on hotels. "Crazy expensive" is a totally subjective point of view...what price range are are you looking for? Is that price range relevant to the actual prices in Miami?

 

The dress code issues are best answered on the RCI board.

We usually stay at the Hampton Inn in Brickell. Close to a lot of shop and restaurants over near the Brickell Center. We no longer dress up for formal nights. But do dress resort casual.  Hope this helps

As far as Port of Miami close to port, expect at minimum to spend between $250 to $300 per night. Also, if driving in add another $40 for parking most likely.
