Hotels for USF vs. Miami

[willia33]

Where's everyone booking down in Miami for Thanksgiving weekend?

I'm assuming it'll be fairly packed and it'll be wise to reserve some rooms early. I am considering South Beach since I've never been there.

Thoughts?!

South BEach is fun coconut grove is fun pretty much anywhere you can get to the beaches quickly (depending on traffic)

Here's a hotel I stayed at on South Beach that was pretty cool:

I made my reservations through bookit.com when I stayed at this hotel a few years ago which shaved about $100 off the published rate on the hotel's website.

Thanks for the link. Going to try and spend the rest of Friday looking and I'll let you guys know if I find anything of interest!

We are booked in a Residence Inn Ft. Lauderdale SW/ Miramar.  Fairly close to the stadium, not the beaches.  2 bedroom suite that sleeps 6 for $178 if you are going with 4 or more.

This is the area we'll more be looking at ... and I guess with the game time up in the air, we can just reserve Fri and Sat and cancel one if needed ... I better get on it.

I booked the RI at Aventura Mall on Marriot points.  I think it's about the same distance to the stadium, but closer to the beach and the mall is like International with some great restaurants and bars.

That was a possibility for us.  Not sure why we opted for the other, unless there was a big price difference.  Saving our Marriott points for a trip to Napa.
