“Convenient location, average amenities”
3 of 5 stars Reviewed November 5, 2012

The pros: This hotel is conveniently located just down the street from the American Airlines Arena. It is only a 15-minute walk or a less than five minute car ride. The lobby/restaurant area is also very nice.

The cons: The rooms are average and feel somewhat outdated. Also, the hot water and internet connectivity also stopped working during my stay. The hotel did compensate for the problems, but they were frustrating nonetheless.

Overall, if you are on a business trip, need a convenient hotel, and are not planning to spend much time in your room, this is a good option. If you are looking for a "cool" Miami hotel, try South Beach.

Room Tip: Request a bay view room

“Good deal if you can find a discount or coupon”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed November 5, 2012 via mobile

Stayed there before a cruise. Less then a mile from the port of Miami, was told a $10.00 cab ride, was $16.00....this hotel has no shuttle from the airport, so you are looking at another $24.00 +tip cab ride..... Good location pricy if you don't have a deal

“Business Trip”
3 of 5 stars Reviewed November 5, 2012

Nice room corner room suite but lacking furniture just made it look so empty. No fridge. No pay per view TV. Asked for a King be got 2 singles put together an a queen mattress on top asked for high floor got 3rd floor nice view of car park and Marriott. Breakfast very good and nice selection. Food and service at bar very nice too. I had 2 bx (the ones that need 2 people to carry) and it took 2 days to find it after I had to suggest I call the police to find my boxes as I assumed that they had been stolen. Security found them eventually but no help from the concierge, bell men or front desk. It is a tired hotel but the location is why everyone stays there I guess. I will not stay here again I will stay at the Marriott in front of the Hilton which has a spectacular view but also a spectacular price but worth it for me. It is strange as a loyal Hilton member for over 20 years that this is the only Hilton hotel I have had to write a bad review for.

“Ok stay”
3 of 5 stars Reviewed November 4, 2012

Overall stay was ok. Thought prices in the bar and for breakfast was very expensive. Located near metro mover and good supermarket. Fridge in room would have been great. Down points: the housekeeping staff didn't replace the milk or sugar for our stay (4 nights), bathroom needs upgraded and housekeeping also never emptied bin in our room - it was overflowing at the end of the stay and I had to fill an additional 3 bags with rubbish. The lifts were also a problem, always waited ages for them. Reception staff friendly.

Thank you for sharing feedback regarding your stay. The free Metromover monorail is just steps from our front door and we appreciate knowing you enjoyed that convenience. It is however, truly regrettable to learn that anything was amiss in your guestroom for your 4-night stay and we will be sure to share your comments with our housekeeping manager. Please know that our associates are always more than happy to help if any issues arise during your stay and we regret that we were not able to resolve some matters for you while you were here, when it would have mattered the most. Refrigerators are available upon request. We hope to welcome you back again.

“Good Location if your cruising”
3 of 5 stars Reviewed November 3, 2012

Hotel was nice but can do with a facelift. Rooms are big and nice.Service is not great however.Breakfast at the hotel was terrible service was really slow! Our stays at Hilton have been great but we cant say that about this property. Perfect if your catching a cruise though! We found the hotel had most things we needed and was located close to the waterfront which had great places to eat. Concierge was helpful. Would only stay here again if we get a good rate and cruising

Located just minutes from the Port of Miami, as well as a host of delicious dining options and more, the Hilton Miami Downtown truly is the ideal location pre- or post cruise and it is great to know you enjoyed your stay. We are however, troubled by your feedback regarding your dining experience and will be sure to address your comments with all of our associates, as providing the very best in hospitality and service is of utmost importance to everyone here. Whether your next visit to Miami is for a cruise or just a great vacation, we hope to see you again!
