Rare vacationlover_mn Posted July 19, 2018 #1 Share Posted July 19, 2018 I waited too long to book, and the Holiday Inn at Port of Miami is booked up for Feb 1. We want to be near the port, and we won’t be in Miami till 3pm. Been there before, and don’t need to be near touristy things. We just want to be in a scenic area that we can walk around. Do you recommend the Intercontinental or YVA? It’s a $100 price difference. Sent from my iPhone using Forums Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fishywood Posted July 19, 2018 #2 Share Posted July 19, 2018 Assume you mean the YVE Hotel in Downtown Miami. Pretty huge gulf in properties for that relatively small difference during peak season. Though I searched that date and found the difference to be $120-125 or so for a "view to be determined at check-in" room at the IC. The YVE has almost 13% of TripAdvisor reviews as poor or terrible. Most properties you want to avoid if that number is over 5%. Sure makes the decision to spend a little more pretty easy in this case. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tw67 Posted July 20, 2018 #3 Share Posted July 20, 2018 I have gotten Intercontinental through either Priceline or Hotwire a few times. Each time I paid about $100, each time was only one night. Once I had gotten two rooms. Sent from my SM-G930V using Forums mobile app Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FredZiffle Posted July 20, 2018 #5 Share Posted July 20, 2018 Intercontinental was very nice. The park next to it was good for walking along the water and leads to an area with shops, bars, and restaurants. All very close. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Flymia Posted July 20, 2018 #6 Share Posted July 20, 2018 Locations are pretty much the same. YVE is a bit of a step below the Intercontinental. It all depends how important room size and luxury feeling of the hotel is for you. YVE is a 3.5 star type of urban hotel, small rooms, small bathrooms. Where the Inter is a larger resort style hotel.
