help...where to stay in miami???

[dallo]

Hi everyone:)

I have cruised out of Miami many times but this will be my first over night stay there before departing and would like to know from others with experience where is the best place to stay while waiting for the cruise???

For one pre-cruise night most like to stay in downtown Miami, closest to the Port of Miami and Bayside Marketplace... http://www.baysidemarketplace.com/

 

These are all decent hotels, some much nicer (and more expensive) than others...

 

JW Marriott (very nice)... http://marriott.com/property/propertypage/miajw

 

Hyatt Regency... http://miamiregency.hyatt.com/property/index.jhtml

 

Intercontinental (walking distance to Bayside)... http://www.ichotelsgroup.com/h/d/ic/1/en/hd/miaha?irs=null

 

Biscayne Bay Marriott (best views of the port from the SE rooms)... http://marriott.com/property/propertypage/miabb

 

Conrad International (very nice)... http://conradhotels.hilton.com/en/ch/hotels/index.jhtml?ctyhocn=MIACICI

 

Four Seasons (very very nice)... http://www.fourseasons.com/miami/index.html

 

Mandarin Oriental (if you want the very BEST)... http://www.mandarinoriental.com/hotel/526000001.asp

 

Marriott Courtyard (budget priced)... http://www.miamicourtyard.com/

 

Holiday Inn Bayside/Port of Miami (across from Bayside, but only for the budget minded)... http://www.ichotelsgroup.com/h/d/hi/1/en/hd/miabb
