Homewood Suites by Hilton Miami Downtown/Brickell

We stayed before getting on a cruise and it was great.

Great location, fantastic breakfast, spacious room, wonderful customer service

The

The hotel is within walking distance of Public market. Maybe a 10-15 minute walk.pool is very small and no sun Key concern we had is the lobby is on floor 2 with parking on floor 1. So you needed to wait in parking structure for transportation. Now they did have a couple of couches to set on. So the comfort where one fins in a lounge isn’t there The hotel room was good size can easily fit 2 adults and young kids. Small kitchen to allow one to prep meals. Over all very quiet. Rooms seem to be in circle around elevators. We obtained one further away, maybe 20 feet and we weren’t disturbed Breakfast area is small and can fill up. Basic breakfast consists of both cool and eggs pancakes etc. nothing above basic. We stayed there before heading to cruise port. ALLOW 1 hr - especially if going to terminal A. TRAFFIC gets hung up at entrance. Once you get by this point very smooth. Recommend reservation of Uber and or Lyf. Getting a ride out of port can be extremely challenging. Therefore reserve a car . My understanding is that the Miami cruise port is very congested- we saw numerous cruisers walking from port to the outside to get transportation. Especially plan ahead IF not driving yourself

Great location to the cruise port and they offer a shuttle service to the port as well
