“Nice but next time pick the Beach.”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed January 28, 2013

Stayed 5 days in a good-deal room for four, at discounted web prices. No problem!The hotel is extraordinarily average for its wanna-be top notch brand. The best deal was the courtesy of bartenders, waiters and front desk personnel. (The valet parking crew was less memorable and once could not find our convertible) The common area offered Wi-Fi at a fee (with a workaround secret code). The pool area was not so inviting. Could be better taken care of? Hope so. Overall, the place was packed with cruise-goers and our discount room gave us no ocean views, but we had big breakfasts and bouncy beds. Still, next time, we will try Hilton on the beach.

Room Tip: Stay on the ocean side i f you can.

“Location & Attitude”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed January 26, 2013 via mobile

Stayed with my son for the weekend while we were in town for the ING Miami half marathon. The location was excellent, the room was clean and comfortable. The entire staff here has a great friendly attitude. Made for a very pleasant weekend. Would highly recommend staying here prior or post cruise out of Miami or in town for a Heat game. American Airlines Arena is a short 6 block walk. Will definitely be back.

Location and attitude truly do make for the difference in a great stay! Thank you so much for sharing your impressions of the Hilton Miami Downtown. We couldn’t be happier to know you enjoyed such a good time and that our associates left you with such a positive and memorable stay. The Miami Marathon is such an exciting event and our central location is perfect, as you mentioned, for any cruise stays in Miami, and just a short stroll from AmericanAirlines arena. We are looking forward to seeing you again, and we hope it is soon!

“"Excellent stay"”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed January 26, 2013

High rise hotel in downtown Miami. Very clean and spacious as you would expect in the Hilton. The front desk & lobby very friendly staff. Great room 1407, nice comfortable beds and pillows, The rooms have large windows from floor to ceiling and include a coffee maker, bath / shower, hairdryer, great linens. We ate about 7 at night and the food was served fast and was very good with Very friendly staff. The continental breakfast was a good start to the day with friendly staff, nice pool.

“Worst hotel for cleanliness, food ever.”
1 of 5 stars Reviewed January 25, 2013

Nice view on one side of the hotel, but the cleanliness of this place and the terrible food left a very poor impression about the Hilton brand. The pool area was especially nasty (dirty, torn cushions and dirty deck and pool). Hope there are plans for major update/clean in the works.

It is extremely disheartening to learn that your experience did not reflect the standards of service that we have set on every level. While we appreciate knowing you enjoyed the views from our downtown Miami hotel, we are terribly disappointed to learn that your accommodations or the pool area were not up to your expectations and if your dining experience was less than you had hoped. Your feedback will most certainly be shared with everyone here to ensure that all is at its best for all of our guests. Please know that someone is always available should any issues arise and we truly regret that we were unable to resolve any of your concerns while you were here, when it would have mattered the most. We appreciate your input and hope that we can welcome you back again.

“Location great-property a little tired”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed January 25, 2013

We stayed here prior to a cruise and enjoyed our stay. We were upgraded to a huge suite because of our honors status. It was a huge room with a living area and seperate bedroom. It also had 2 bathrooms. It had large glass windows with a complete view of the city. The decor could certainly use a facelift. Everything was tired and the furniture looked very worn and scratched. It wasn't quite as clean as I would have liked either. But it was good enough and we enjoyed the extra space. The location is great because it is about 5 mins in a cab to the cruise port.There is also city tram system directly across the street which is free. We hopped on and went to the Bayside Marketplace which is a neat little area with shops and restaurants.
The staff was nice and the common areas pretty. There is also a Starbucks in the lobby- but be advised-you pay hotel prices- not Starbucks prices. In general-we were pleased but Hilton needs to invest some money in a refurbishment because the location is really great.

Room Tip: higher floors allow you to see the bay

It’s great to hear that not only did you enjoy our convenient location to Port of Miami, but also that you had some time to explore some of what the Miami area has to offer. Our suites are truly something that should be experienced and offer some of the best views of the city and bay available, although we must apologize if you were not as impressed with our décor. Your feedback will be shared with our Management team as providing the very best to all of our guests is so important. We hope you had a great time on your cruise! Thank you for sharing comments about your stay at the Hilton Miami Downtown, we hope you will stay with us again!
