New Miami Hotels
As a Maduro Travel rep, I recently travelled to Miami and visited some new hotels to check them out..Of course, I will share my experiences with you…
RAMADA INN AIRPORT NORTH
Wonderful cosy 2* hotel - rooms are clean but simple - staff very friendly - breakfast buffet, more extensive than Red Roof or Baymont Hotel - Location is excellent, across from Westland Mall (walking distance, but there is also a shuttle) - Hotel is a little bit far from Airport..
A Big Plus, nightclub on property with live merengue and salsa band, so if you are travelling in a group it is guaranteed fun!
Price Afl 65.00 p/p per night
HYATT PLACE MIAMI AIRPORT
A great hotel! The rooms are all SUITES, with a seperate living area and a small kitchen (too small to really cook) A big 42″ flat screen TV and nice amenities in the room. The hotel is high-tec, meaning that you can check-in/check-out automatically, order room service by touch screen, wireless high speed internet connection etc etc. If you did not bring your laptop, there are two computers that you can use on a complimentary basis in the lobby bar. This is the best DEAL hotel, as it offers you, shuttle services to dolphin and walmart 24 hrs, breakfast and luxury suite accomodations. Next stay, I am definitely booking the HYATT PLACE
Price Afl 142.00 p/p, per night
INTERCONTINENTAL WEST MIAMI
This hotel is a luxury hotel, comparable with Hyatt here in Aruba - The location is WEST MIAMI, close to Dolphin Mall, in the DORAL area. The hotel is surrounded by Office parks and very close to the airport - accessible by shortcut. The rooms are nicely decorated, but not that big (in comparison with Hyatt Place) but it is a FULL SERVICE HOTEL, meaning 24 room-service, movies on demand, laundry services, bellman, etc etc. E.g. My babystroller was missing a screw, so I called maintenance and they took the stroller and fixed it for me, very good customer service!It also features complimentary shuttle services to Dolphin Mall, International Mall and 24 hours Wallmart as well as airport.
Alf 116.00 p/p, per night * excluding breakfast *
Indigo Tours also has a including breakfast price, which is highly advisable (room service breakfast cost me$25.00!)
ALL above hotels feature extensive shuttle services,so no car rental is neccesary - a BIG SAVINGS!
