Charge for the shuttle to the Port of Miami
The 174-room Regency Hotel Miami is a mid-range, family-friendly airport hotel with classic decor, same day laundry/dry cleaning services, airport transfers, a rental car desk, an outdoor pool, and casual dining and cocktails. Traditional rooms have flat-screen TVs and some come with wet bars and balconies overlooking the city. However, some room furnishings appear worn, and past guests have complained of noise from airplanes flying overhead. Overall, this is a more stylish option than competitive chains, with all the conveniences of an airport hotel.

Scene
Stylish decor, a serene pool, and on-site dining and cocktails
The six-floor Regency's tall ceilings, marble floors, skylights, conservatory windows, and white columns in the lobby create a grand first impression. Flavored water at the front desk is a nice welcoming perk. Classic furnishings -- including comfy sofas, red accent walls, leather chairs, and a silver suitcase-shaped coffee table -- create a homey atmosphere in the lobby. There’s also a boarding pass kiosk with a printer. Although the hotel's main clientele are airport transit passengers, the Regency's close proximity to the Port of Miami and long-term parking deals also attracts cruise ship travelers.
Location
Near the Miami International Airport and next to a seafood restaurant
The Regency Hotel Miami is a seven-minute drive to the Miami International Airport.

Both the Port of Miami and the Dolphin Mall take around 15 minutes to reach by car. On-site parking is free and the hotel offers free 24-hour shuttle service to the airport, the Dolphin Mall, and the Miami International Mall, and can drop guests at the Port of Miami for a fee.
