Sustainable Hotels Near Bayfront Park Miami for Business and Leisure Travelers
Bayfront Park is a 32-acre waterfront green space in Downtown Miami on Biscayne Bay, known for hosting major events like Ultra Music Festival, concerts at the FPL Solar Amphitheater at Bayfront Park, and New Year's celebrations.
The park is open 7 a.m. to 11 p.m. daily and connects directly to the free Metromover system via Bayfront Park Station at 150 Biscayne Boulevard, making it one of the most accessible venues in the city for both business travelers and event-goers.
We picked the hotels in this guide based on three criteria: walkability or quick Metromover access to Bayfront Park (most are within 0.2 to 0.5 miles or one Metromover stop away), verified sustainability credentials (LEED certifications, participation in IHG Green Engage, Accor's net-zero commitments, or Hilton's Travel with Purpose program), and business-ready amenities like meeting space, coworking areas, and on-site or nearby EV charging. Hotels right on Biscayne Boulevard have the shortest walk to the park but can be loud during concerts and festivals; Brickell options are one Metromover stop away and quieter on event nights.
