3redheads Posted November 15, 2007 #1 Share Posted November 15, 2007 I thought for sure I'd get the Intercontinental in Miami. We're going in August. The reviews on tripadvisor aren't good. Anyone been there lately? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Administrators Rare CC Help Michell Posted November 15, 2007 Administrators #2 Share Posted November 15, 2007 I thought for sure I'd get the Intercontinental in Miami. We're going in August. The reviews on tripadvisor aren't good. Anyone been there lately? I haven't (hope you get some good, positive replies about your hotel!) -- but your post raises a very important point. Using Priceline in hopes of getting a particular hotel is VERY tricky at best. A lot depends on their current "star" rating and their current "zone" map -- each of which can change at Priceline's whim. For more information, the website http://www.biddingfortravel.com has very helpful information in this regard -- it's kind of thick and takes a while to digest -- but it's worth it to (hopefully) avoid disappointment.

3redheads Posted November 15, 2007 Author #3 Share Posted November 15, 2007 Michelle, I used that site, but I was too anxious and didn't realize Hyatt had so many bad reviews. I can only hope for the best. They have 9 months to finish the renovations. Keeping my fingers crossed! Thanks for the response. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BeachTeach Posted November 15, 2007 #4 Share Posted November 15, 2007 The same thing happened to me. There are some positive reviews too. I called the hotel and asked them some questions. They were very nice and told me everything should be fine when I come in March. Who knows if that is true or not. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
3redheads Posted November 15, 2007 Author #5 Share Posted November 15, 2007 I did a bit of research and there seems to be a mix of responses. Most of the negative reviews are from people who spend more than one night there. I'm sure the refurbishments will be done by next August. At least, I hope :D Thank you!

Treven Posted November 15, 2007 #6 Share Posted November 15, 2007 I thought for sure I'd get the Intercontinental in Miami. We're going in August. The reviews on tripadvisor aren't good. Anyone been there lately? Specifically which Hyatt are you referring to? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
3redheads Posted November 15, 2007 Author #7 Share Posted November 15, 2007 Sorry, that info would help. It's the downtown Miami Hyatt :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
willysgrandma Posted November 15, 2007 #8 Share Posted November 15, 2007 The hotel is FINE. We stayed there in September before our cruise and liked it very much. We also posted a positive review. I believe that all renovations should be finished by the time you visit. We had no noise nor any problems from the renovations. Here are some pictures: http://travel.webshots.com/album/560656375lAxMuo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
raytownlady Posted November 16, 2007 #9 Share Posted November 16, 2007 Yes, the Hyatt is just fine we stayed there in October and were very pleased. Like many of you, we had heard many negative comments concerning the condition of the hotel, we didn't experience any negatives. I think that you will be just fine.
