Frommer's Review
Although you won't find ubiquitous Hilton heiresses Paris and Nicky at this business-oriented hotel (they hang out on South Beach), you will find luxury-lovers who have no interest in minimalism or J-Lo spottings and, instead, prefer to bask in the Hilton brand of luxury. The Conrad Miami joins its London, Hong Kong, Bangkok, Brussels, and New York siblings in the form of this 203-room, 36-floor skyscraper located in the heart of Miami's financial district. Though, at first, you may feel as if you're in an office building, once you walk over the bridge across a sparkling pool, visions of cramped cubicles and bad lighting will immediately disappear. The lobby is located on the 26th floor, which is illuminated by a magnificent atrium that shares the attention with a restaurant, lounge, and bar and splits the difference between the 203-guest rooms and the 116 fully serviced luxury apartments. All rooms feature hyper-high-tech amenities such as flatscreen TVs. Because this is a condo-hotel, expect nothing but the best in amenities, including a superbly equipped fitness center, two tennis courts, and a remarkable swimming pool. At press time, the Sky Lobby and the happening Noir Bar were undergoing renovations to damages caused by 2005's ruthless Hurricane Wilma.
