Why Concert-goers love it

Located just 10 miles from Marlins Park and a quick ride to downtown Miami’s music scene, this hotel offers a peaceful retreat after a night out.

Food and Drink Options

The hotel offers a daily American and buffet breakfast—perfect for a post-show recovery meal. There’s also a snack bar and barbecue grills for DIY bites, plus nearby dining options at the mall just a few minutes’ walk away. While there’s no 24/7 room service, the kitchenette-equipped rooms make it easy to whip up something late-night.

Nightlife Options

Though the hotel itself doesn’t host live music, you’re close to local nightlife hubs and casual lounges. Doral’s growing scene includes craft cocktail bars and late-night spots just a short ride away. It’s a quieter base, but the action is never far.

What People Say

Guests frequently praise the hotel’s clean rooms, friendly staff, and excellent location near shopping and entertainment. Travelers also appreciate the modern amenities and the convenience of having a full kitchenette in many rooms.

Areas for Improvement

Some guests have noted that parking can be a bit limited during peak times, and while the snack bar is handy, more on-site dining variety would be a bonus. Still, the nearby mall fills in the gaps easily.
