    Summer is well underway and last-minute travelers are looking to book their beachside getaways before it's too late. Sunny Miami offers everything a cooped up vacationer could want—surf and sand, great food, nonstop nightlife—and a stay at Novotel Miami Brickell places guests at the heart of it all.

  • Location & Property

  • Lobby with pink furniture and white palm tree decor at the Novotel Miami Brickell at night

    Novotel Miami Brickell is located just on the outskirts of downtown Miami by Simpson Park, giving this big city property a calmer, more private atmosphere while remaining within walking distance of dozens of restaurants and popular nightlife spots. Despite its proximity to downtown, this 21-floor property is tucked away from the bustling main streets. It features 275 guest rooms, 20 of which are suites, with an average square footage of 300 feet. The pink lobby is dotted with bright white decorative palm trees and features floor-to-ceiling windows that welcome guests with a healthy dose of Florida sunshine.
