“location is not to good”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed February 26, 2013

The hotel is nice, room (Jr Suite) is big and beautifull view of the city. There are not too many options to eat close to the hotel. The pool is not like a Hilton´s standard.
I like it, but I think there are several better options for that price.

While we are certainly glad to know you enjoyed your suite accommodations and beautiful city views of from our hotel, it is disappointing that your overall stay was not completely positive. Our rooftop pool is definitely a unique experience, one that you won’t find at many other properties. If any of our guests are interested in learning more about the area and its bountiful shopping and dining options, our concierge is always willing to help. Thank you for your review, we hope to welcome you back and fully impress you with all we have to offer.

“Not impressed”
3 of 5 stars Reviewed February 24, 2013

We were expecting so much more for Hilton hotel.. There is no free parking, no free internet access.. and location isn't great either.
Rooms weren't impressive and beds not that comfortable.. For the amount of money we have spent for this hotel, we were quite disappointed.
Very busy hotel and if you wanted to get just anywhere.. loads of walking and taking different kinds of lifts which was confusing for many guests as we could see.
We used valet parking which was expensive and we had to wait for a quite long time every time we wanted to use our car.. tiring.. I would rather chose different hotel next time.. not as big, not as busy, not as expensive.. with free parking, nice breakfast and free WI-fi.. Would not stay again.. it had a feeling of busy central station... sadly..

Room Tip: Reception desk not as helpful as we would hope.. I think you are treated much better at smaller hote...

It is always our hope that we can resolve any issues as they arise, and we apologize if that did not occur during your stay, when it would have mattered the most.

“Good hotel, poor location”
3 of 5 stars Reviewed February 24, 2013

Stayed at this hotel for three nights over my birthday.

We were upgraded to a corner room nice touch.

Although the hotel was nice the location is really poor and I would not return only because of the location.

Rooms clean, quick and efficient checkin. We were given our wifi free as the connection was poor.

Breakfast choice very good although service hit and miss.

“Great Location”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed February 23, 2013

This hotel has a great location in downtown Miami. It is convenient to the Port for cruises, American Airlines Arena, and Bayside (shopping and dining). A short cab ride to South Beach. The rooms are comfortable. The staff are polite and helpful. Dining options within the hotel are limited, but this is otherwise an excellent choice

“Hot Water is a Roll of the Dice”
3 of 5 stars Reviewed February 23, 2013

Day one, no hot water in the sink but warm water in the shower. Day two, hot water all around. Day three, no hot water in the sink but warm water in the shower. I was at the Hilton for a conference and talked to my fellow participants, many were hotwater-less on multiple occasions. The hotel did offer free breakfasts as compensation but it seems like a bigger scale problem that I had read about before my arrival.

The rooms were decent sized and the staff were all quite friendly. The decor could have used some freshening up. The location though wasn't half bad. I felt like I could get around to different parts of the city for a fairly cheap taxi ride.

I had a special conference rate in the $150 range and felt like it was a very fair price. Not sure what the full rate is but my guess is there are probably some better bangs for the buck out there.

Just as an aside, the pool was on the small side and didn't seem to be a very appealing spot to lay out.
