These five hotels sit within the core Edgewater neighborhood, bounded by NE 17th Street to the south, NE 36th Street to the north, Biscayne Bay to the east, and Biscayne Boulevard to the west. The list draws from hotels that are bookable, well-reviewed, and physically addressed inside those boundaries, with priority given to properties carrying verified sustainability credentials, then star rating, then guest scores. Two of the five candidates from the available inventory meet the geographic threshold; the remaining entries reflect the full pool of qualifying properties.
How we ranked these hotels
Sustainability credentials set the order here. A hotel with a verified certification or published eco program ranked above one without, regardless of star rating. Within the same sustainability tier, the higher star rating won. Where star ratings matched, the higher guest score determined order. The geographic filter was strict: every property had to carry an official address inside core Edgewater, confirmed against City of Miami neighborhood maps and major travel platforms. Properties whose addresses or primary travel-media associations placed them in Downtown Miami, Wynwood, or Midtown were excluded.
The available inventory of bookable hotels with verified Edgewater addresses is small. Two properties, the Hilton Miami Downtown at 1601 Biscayne Blvd and the DoubleTree by Hilton Grand Hotel Biscayne Bay at 1717 N Bayshore Dr, sit on or immediately adjacent to Biscayne Boulevard at the southern edge of the Edgewater corridor. The Miami Marriott Biscayne Bay at 1633 N Bayshore Dr occupies the same bayfront strip. These three properties are the only bookable, named hotels from the inventory whose addresses fall within or on the recognized Edgewater boundary. The remaining candidates in the inventory are either unrated vacation rentals, properties in Wynwood, or properties whose addresses place them south of NE 17th Street in Downtown Miami.

What to expect in this part of Edgewater
The bayfront strip along N Bayshore Drive between NE 17th and NE 20th Streets is where the hotel inventory concentrates. Guests get water views of Biscayne Bay, walkable access to Margaret Pace Park, and a short drive or ride-share to the Wynwood arts district and the Design District. The neighborhood itself is low-rise residential north of NE 20th Street, with a handful of condo towers and the three hotels clustered near the southern boundary.
Dining options within a 10-minute walk include the restaurants along NE 2nd Avenue and the bayfront. Publix on NE 2nd Avenue is roughly a 7-minute walk for guests who want to self-cater. The area is quieter than Downtown Miami at night, which suits travelers who want proximity to the city without street noise.

Frequently asked questions
Which hotels are actually in Edgewater Miami, not just nearby?＋
The three hotels in this list, the Hilton Miami Downtown at 1601 Biscayne Blvd, the Miami Marriott Biscayne Bay at 1633 N Bayshore Dr, and the DoubleTree by Hilton Grand Hotel Biscayne Bay at 1717 N Bayshore Dr, all carry addresses on or immediately inside the recognized Edgewater boundary. Many hotels marketed as 'Edgewater-area' are physically in Downtown Miami or Wynwood, which sit outside the NE 17th Street to NE 36th Street corridor that defines the neighborhood.
Do any Edgewater Miami hotels have LEED certification?＋
No hotel in the verified Edgewater Miami inventory holds a published LEED certification at any tier. Hilton and Marriott both operate brand-level sustainability tracking programs, but neither has published a property-level LEED, Green Key, or equivalent credential for their Edgewater addresses.
How do guests get from Edgewater hotels to the rest of Miami without a car?＋
The Adrienne Arsht Center Metromover station on the Omni Loop is roughly an 11-to-13-minute walk south along Biscayne Boulevard from all three hotels. Miami-Dade Transit Route 3 stops on Biscayne Boulevard within a 2-to-3-minute walk and connects to Wynwood, the Design District, and Downtown Miami. Ride-share services are also available throughout the neighborhood.
Is Edgewater Miami walkable?＋
The bayfront strip where these hotels sit is walkable for leisure. Margaret Pace Park is within a 4-to-6-minute walk of all three properties.
