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.

Ricardo in the valet is the best! The service for my Cari’s very highly level and I like it so much Hotel is ok, but the view was awful, it had to be another one. The price is higher than expected and doesn’t worth it . The room service is ok, but no coffee machine inside

Although my stay was short, everything from service to atmosphere exceeded expectations. I’d definitely choose the EPIC again for future business or leisure trips. Read less
