Reviewing the Regency Miami Airport by Sonesta Hotel: Amenities, Pros, Cons, & More
Miami is a major tourist destination that’s always booming with visitors all year around. The number one question when planning a trip is “Where is the best place to stay?” With a wide range of hotels, Airbnbs, hostels, and motels, finding the best fit can be overwhelming. Factors like pricing, location, and amenities mean a lot when it comes to comfort, navigating the city, and more. Let’s look at a the Regency Miami Airport by Sonesta Hotel as an option for your next visit to the 305 or a staycation if you’re a local.
The Regency is a 3-star hotel under the Sonesta International Hotel brand. I stayed at this hotel before when a flight was cancelled, courtesy of American Airlines and I enjoyed it despite my short time there. It’s located close to the Miami International Airport and since Miami isn’t a huge city, it’s not too far from areas like Wynwood, Brickell, and Downtown. Depending on time and traffic, it’s about 15-20 minutes away from those hot spots.
The average cost per night is between $100 and $150. Keep in mind this depends on the season. Prices tend to increase during the peak season of spring and summer and decrease around fall in winter. However, there are events all year round in Miami (Art Basel in December for example) so price will vary.
