InterContinental Miami West

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 club room with club access

How are the rooms?
Not that big, but elegantly designed

Very comfortable bed (have the feeling to sleep at Sofitel) and very soft linens

Large flat screen, DVD player
Very good selection of TV channels

bathroom with small bathtub
Molton Brown products

How is the exec. lounge?
Large enough
Excellent and warm service
Very good breakfast
Basic evening canapés
1 free PC

What was good and what was bad?
Good
Very warm and nice staff
The large outdoor pool (4X12m), located in a small tropical garden, is very pleasant

Bad
Not that much to say, except perhaps that the door of the room is not perfectly soundproof (you can hear people speaking loudly in the corridor)

Value for $ or Priority Club Points? Would you return?
Definitely (99 USD a night is a real bargain)
If you consider the IC Miami West for what it is - an airport hotel -, it is a excellent choice.
If you choose this hotel for visiting Miami, there are of course much central locations (but who hell stays at Sheraton Charles de Gaulle to visit Paris??)
