Disclosure: As a Hampton by Hilton Seekender, I am sharing thoughts on my recent complimentary stay at the Hampton Inn & Suites Downtown Miami Brickell property. Opinions shared are my own.
Welcome to Miami!
This is not only the name of the old school Will Smith hit, it is a way of life! I absolutely love visiting MIA and enjoy all that it has to offer. I recently took my first ever cruise to the Bahamas leaving out of the Port of Miami, and stayed an extra day at the well-appointed Hampton Inn Miami Brickell location in downtown Miami.
When I tell you that I was super surprised at how posh and luxe this property is! After our cruise arrived at the Port of Miami earlier that morning, we took a taxi to the location just in time to partake in free breakfast. As soon as my Aunt and I arrived, we were in awe of the hotel. Colorfully decorated, it was Miami come to life. And because it is downtown, you are close to everything including public transportation, monorail, and trolley.
Miami is well-known for South Beach and their waterfront areas, but one should not sleep on downtown. It’s an up and coming area bustling with innovation. Startups and tech businesses are making their presence known in the downtown area, and there is also a thriving nightlife.
The Hampton Inn and Suites Miami/Brickell Downtown is nestled and centrally located next to shops, businesses, an art scene, and plenty of eateries, restaurants, and bars. You don’t even need a car to have fun in the area, and you can always Uber your way to the beach if you are so inclined.
Whether you are a business traveler or on vacation with your friends or family, the Hampton Inn and Suites Miami Brickell property has everything you need. With a full service business center, pool, strong WIFI, free breakfast, in-room dining options, and rooms that are chic and so Miami, you will be more than pleased. There’s even a Happy Hour event for guests!
Our room was super comfy, luxe, and relaxing.
This location is also green and eco-friendly, too!
Now that I am aware of the thriving Miami downtown area, I am going to think about it first before making my lodging plans. Staying at the beach is great, but nothing beats the views and vibrancy of the downtown area.

Wow, what a cool place! I love the way the building looks on the outside too! It definitely draws attention and makes you want to check out the inside!
I love the modern hotels. They’re so stylish in keeping with hip Miami FL. I want togo on a cruise now!
Oh wow! That is one awesome place! Miami is an awesome place, and you need an equally awesome place to chillax.
Oh wow! The rooms are so colorful and chic! Just my style. I’ll be visiting downtown Miami in the summer too!
This looks like a beautiful hotel and those bright pops of color definitely say Miami. We always stay in the area the night before a cruise and appreciate the added relaxation that brings.
Miami is such a fun, bustling city, and it looks like this fun hotel fits it perfectly. I would love to spend a couple of nights here.
What a beautiful place to stay. The hotel looks really nice and comfortable. I will keep this in mind when I visit Miami.
We cruised from Miami in 2015 and one of my regrets is NOT seeing more of the city. Next time, I’d like to arrive a day early to check-in to this hotel THEN stay two additional days at the end of the cruise. Plus, you need that time to get used to life back on land!
The hotel looks so pretty. I am glad that you had a great vacation. Cruising is addicting! We went on a 7-day cruise for our honeymoon and I have wanted to go on another one stat. It hasn’t happened yet due to life throwing a few curve balls. Maybe one day.
I love staying on the beach as well but nothing beats downtown. I like being close to everything from restaurants to bar and grills, to shopping malls. This is a gorgeous place to stay.
Wow, this isn’t your everyday hotel! I’d love to stay at a hotel that was this fun, vibrant, and eclectic. 🙂
Miami is commercial are like Toronto. People have magnificent and luxurious life there.
