InterContinental Miami Downtown

Were you (or for multi-stayers are you generally) happy with the hotel/stay?
Yes, very much

Which room did you book and which upgrade did you receive?
The cheapest rate and got a large suite with bay view, on 32nd floor and club access

How are the rooms?
Quite large
1 dining area with bar
1 bedroom
1 bathroom + toilet
1 separate toilet
dressing room

The colourful 90s design is not exactly my taste, but it's quite OK (I never complain about design when service is smiling)

How is the exec. lounge?
Large enough
Excellent and warm service
Good breakfast
Excellent cookies at tea time
Basic evening canapés
2 free PCs and printer

What was good and what was bad?
Good
Nice staff
The outdoor pool is pleasant (but why did they build this Provence style little house which prevents guests to see the see from the pool)
Good location to visit downtown (and art/design district)
Splendid view

Bad
Not that much to say. I was a happy guest

Value for $ or Priority Club Points? Would you return?
Good value (but price has drop between time I booked and yesterday's rate)
Definitely a good hotels for RAs as long as you want to visit Miami downtown.
To visit the South Beach area, Z Ocean is definitely a wise choice.
