Heat of the Moment

Life really is a beach when you stay in Miami’s vibrant Brickell neighbourhood, just a 10-minute drive to South Beach and its endless sun, sand and surf. Though you may be tempted to pass your time in the city lying horizontal with a cocktail in hand, trust us when we say it'll be hard to resist the area's nightlife and attractions with a huge array of nearby venues, clubs, bars and museums begging to be visited – the restaurants at Brickell City Centre deserve special mention. Back at base, you’ll find the bathroom and kitchen well-stocked, plus ample home entertainment in the form of cable TV. Don’t neglect the communal areas, though – there’s a fully kitted-out on-site gym, a rooftop swimming pool with plenty of loungers and a conference room for those here on business. This perfect Floridian location means everything you want is accessible at the click of your fingers – there's a reason this world-class destination gets called The Magic City.
