Business Travel to Miami: Factors to Consider When Selecting a Hotel 

COVID-19 Precautions

The pandemic created an unpredictable environment for business travel, making it difficult to keep up with regulations and mandates, let alone keep your team safe. Health is a priority when traveling in 2022, and ensuring your hotel takes the proper precautions to keep guests safe is essential. 

Over the past two years, the hospitality industry launched several initiatives to mitigate the spread of COVID-19 and comply with local, state and federal guidelines. Look for hotels that offer contactless check-in, room sanitization between guests, and sanitizer stations appointed throughout the property.

Location & Beach Proximity

Being in Miami means you’re always within miles of a sandy shore and the cool ocean waters. While being within proximity of your meetings and conferences is essential, having easy access to the beach is a perk that you shouldn't miss out on when traveling for business in Miami. 

Whether you’re enjoying a bay view from your balcony, or heading for a dip after a long day of work, the beach is a great place to unwind. 

Parking & Commuting

Searching for parking in heavily populated areas can be a hassle. Whether you’re driving a rental vehicle or a company car, a hotel with available parking is one less thing to worry about. Hotels with airport shuttles, proximity to public transportation, and valet options are great perks that will make your business travels in Miami that much more convenient. 

In most instances, parking doesn’t come free—expect a nightly charge of anywhere from $12 to $50 depending on whether it’s self-parking or valet. 

That said, some hotels offer complimentary car services for guests—on a first-come, first-serve basis.
