LF: Miami hotel near POM, safe area with kids?

[Fetchh]

Any recommendations for a hotel near Port of Miami that has:

 

-3 star+ hotel

-free continental breakfast.

-walking distance to a few shops for last minute wine purchase for cruise, etc.

-safe area for walking to the store as we have young kids and won't have a car.

 

Just need it for 1 full day. TIA

Thanks, those links are great, but only discuss a few hotels and only a couple by POM. Holiday Inn Miami Cruise Port is a contender, however, at $189/night, yikes.

 

Anyone have any suggestions for the above request, 3 star and max of $150 usd?

We booked a downtown hotel through Hotwire for our family of four. Ended up with the Intercontinental. The price is variable with the seasons. We ended up at $168 for late December and are excited to be so close to everything.

As we don't know when you are going, 3 star and max of $150 may not be realistic. There are some very expensive peak seasons in the Ft Lauderdale/Miami area.

Check out the Hampton Inn in downtown Miami.

 

It is near Mary Brickell Village with shops and restaurant and grocery store and drug store and include a breakfast.

Hotels in the Blue Lagoon area near MIA may fit your bill - depending upon when you are travelling. :confused: Hampton Inn, Homewood Suites, Sofitel, etc. There is a local strip mall with dining options plus drug, grocery and liquor stores and lots of fast food nearby.

Can you pinpoint the date a little bit? While it isn't quite peak season, we are looking at it and have some very busy weekends coming up in the next few weeks. '

 

If you want safe, Miami is not the place to try and skimp on a hotel room.
