Hotels near Bayfront Park put you within a short walk of the park's FPL Solar Amphitheater, Biscayne Bay and the downtown blocks along Biscayne Boulevard. All five hotels here are within a 10-minute walk of the park, ordered by walking distance first, then star rating, then sustainability credentials. There are two 3-star options alongside the higher-end picks, so the list works for Ultra Music Festival or a weeknight business trip.
How walking distance was calculated
Distances follow the walking route on the street map from each hotel to the main Bayfront Park entrance at 301 Biscayne Blvd, and walk times come from the same route.
The Metromover's Bayfront Park station is on the Inner and Omni loops, and all five hotels on this list are within a 4-minute walk of a Metromover stop. That matters if you're arriving from Miami International Airport: the Metrorail Orange Line runs to Government Center, where you change to the free Metromover.
