Miami Hotels

Where to stay in Miami, by neighborhood — the landmark hotels visitors actually ask for, from Ocean Drive icons to Brickell towers. Pick your base first, then build the trip around it with our experiences and the Real Vice City Guide.

How booking works here: “Check current rates” opens a live search for that hotel on Booking.com in a new tab, where you see real prices and complete the booking. Our hotel partner enrollment is being finalized — when it lands, these links become tracked partner links and this note comes down. Until then we earn nothing on hotel clicks, and we'd rather tell you that than dress it up.

Which neighborhood fits your trip?

First trip, beach-first, nightlife: South Beach — you will barely need a car.

Business that turns into a night out, food lovers: Brickell — towers, rooftops and dinner density.

Cruise passengers, museum and arena days, boat tours: Downtown — Bayside and the bay-cruise docks on your doorstep.

Art weekends and a local feel: Wynwood and nearby Midtown put the Walls and the Design District in walking range.
