Bottom Line

This two-and-a-half pearl Hampton By Hilton Miami-Coconut Grove/Coral Gables could be a great solution for tourists looking to be in the Coconut Grove Area of Miami while watching their budget. It’s more affordable than mid-range hotels in the area, but lacks ambiance and doesn't have a bar or dinner restaurant. Rooms are sleek with high-quality furniture and plush, comfortable beds. Also, the outdoor pool, small fitness center, free Wi-Fi access and breakfast might make up for the lack of character.

Oyster Hotel Review

Hampton By Hilton Miami-Coconut Grove/Coral Gables

Scene

Basic and functional; lounge area connected to breakfast restaurant 

With an exterior that looks every bit like every other Hampton Inn in America -- standing six floors tall with orange-ish paint and bright red lettering --  the lobby is built for function only, with a quartet of free coffee dispensers but no seats and a straightforward reception desk. The breakfast restaurant is designed to be the lounge area, with a couple of flat-screen TVs and couches to kick back on. The outdoor pool is pleasant, a bit small with only a few lounge chairs but surrounded by palm trees and tropical plants. The fitness center is small and crammed but clean and equipped with a trio of high-end digital exercise machines.

Location

Five-minute drive to central Cocowalk, 15 minutes to Miami International Airport 

Located one block from US-1 (South Dixie Highway) and 27th street, Miami International Airport is a 20-minute drive and Fort Lauderdale Airport is about 45 minutes away. There is a McDonald’s and several fast food options two minutes away on the highway and the center of Coconut Grove. Cocowalk is a five-minute drive away or 15 minutes walking. The U.S. Sailing Center and harbor can be reached in about 20 minutes on foot. There is bus station across the street and by bus, Coconut Grove’s multiple shops, restaurants, and a movie theater are less than 10 minutes away. Miami South Beach and its many clubs and restaurants are about a 20-minute drive away.

Rooms

Elegantly furnished and super comfy beds

There are nice views of Miami in the distance from some rooms. Bathrooms are equipped with glass showers featuring large, dark tiles and countertops made of speckled granite. Neutrogena toiletries are a nice touch. All rooms have a shiny flat-screen TV, high-speed Wi-Fi access, safe, ironing facilities, mini-fridge, and microwave. The only thing missing is a coffeemaker.
