Miami Cruise Guide

Cruises From Miami to the Caribbean and Beyond

Kimpton EPIC Hotel

Located on the waterfront in downtown Miami, the Kimpton EPIC Hotel is less than 10 minutes from the cruise port terminals on Dodge Island. It’s a great place to base your exploration of Miami either before or after your cruise.

Downtown Miami Kimpton Hotel

We supposed you could argue about whether the Kimpton EPIC Hotel is deserving of the “epic” in its name, but we do know that it consistently receives excellent reviews from previous guests. Located at the corner of Brickell Avenue and Biscayne Boulevard Way, many of the rooms have great views of the bay. This downtown hotel is a big one, with 411 guest rooms and suites, plus on-site dining at Area 31 and Zuma, great spa and fitness facilities, meeting space and the Metropolis Ballroom which can seat up to 300 wedding guests.

If you’re looking for a place to stay before or after a cruise out of the port of Miami, this is one of the most conveniently located downtown hotel options, less than two miles from the port.

Getting There

This Kimpton hotel is pretty easy to get to, regardless of your preferred mode of transportation. It’s less than a mile from the downtown exits off I-95 and about two blocks east of the closest station on Miami’s “Metromover” transit system. Miami International Airport is about eight miles northwest of the hotel.
