Kimpton EPIC Hotel

Brickell, Miami

Virgin rating

The hotel

Epic by name and epic by nature, the Kimpton Epic sits along the water’s edge, overlooking the glistening Biscayne Bay. Take a dip into one of the two rooftop pools, and sip on a cocktail in your private poolside cabana. Seeing as you’re set on the waterfront, seafood is a must, and you can dine looking out on the sea itself. In need of some me-time? Head to the spa for a treatment, or try your hand at a yoga class. And when the evenings roll in, head out and experience one of Miami’s cool bars, or retreat to your room for some down-time.

I paid for a “water view king”. They did not tell me that this room was 4 floors above a patio bar/ dance club that played POUNDING. Dance music for 4 hours every night ( it was a Wednesday night) . I was trying to work, and could not even think over the music. The front desk folks shrugged at me when I asked / complained about it. When I called IHG I was hung up on. It was one of the most horrible experiences In a hotel. If you want to party then maybe stay here, if you want quiet go to the Hyatt across the street. Read less

My spouse and I had Such a great experience, Jean Booftista was so nice and helpful! Jean was extremely humble. Thank you so much for everything. AREA 31 was soooo delightful! Couldn't have chose a better place to get breakfast and start our morning!
