Quick Verdict: InterContinental Miami vs The Miami Beach EDITION

When InterContinental Miami wins: choose InterContinental if you need downtown convenience (steps from Bayfront Park and the Metromover), large meeting or wedding space, or a business-friendly five-star with a well-regarded on-site spa and rooftop pool.

Location: Downtown bayfront vs Mid‑Beach beachfront

InterContinental Miami – Location

InterContinental Miami sits on the downtown Biscayne Bay waterfront, steps from Bayfront Park and the Metromover.

  • Immediate access to downtown attractions, the Metromover, Bayside Marketplace and Brickell via short rides.
  • Close to PortMiami and convention/event neighborhoods; convenient for business travel and cruise itineraries.
  • Rooftop views face Biscayne Bay and the incoming cruise ships rather than direct oceanfront.

Choose InterContinental for business, museums, downtown dining and easy public-transit access.

The Miami Beach EDITION – Location

The Miami Beach EDITION sits on Collins Avenue in Mid‑Beach with direct access to Miami Beach and the beach boardwalk.

  • Direct beachfront location makes beach time and ocean views the primary draw.
  • Mid‑Beach location places you between South Beach and North Beach scenes—close to Collins Avenue shopping and nightlife.
  • Preferred airport listed as Miami International Airport (MIA) and the hotel notes nearby seaplane base.

Pick the EDITION when beach access and a resort atmosphere are the priority.

Rooms: Suite and view options for different trip types

InterContinental Miami – Rooms

InterContinental Miami offers a large room mix emphasizing bay, ocean and city views plus several suite grades.

  • 652 total rooms across 34 floors, including many Classic Room types with Bay, Ocean or City views.
  • Multiple suite categories from 1‑Bedroom Suites to Presidential and Royal Suites.
  • Club lounge (Club access room options) and many accessible room options (19 accessible rooms).

InterContinental fits groups, business travelers and guests who want variety in room types and views.

The Miami Beach EDITION – Rooms

The Miami Beach EDITION lists 294 air‑conditioned rooms with standard resort amenities.

  • Room count and standard comforts are oriented toward a resort‑hotel layout rather than a high-rise downtown tower.
  • In-room features include minibars, LCD TVs, pillowtop beds and designer toiletries in private baths.
  • The supplier listing does not publish named room-type breakdowns here.

The EDITION works for guests who want a resort layout and beachfront rooms rather than a high-rise downtown inventory.

Dining & drinks: Pan‑Latin and rooftop vs resort restaurants and nightlife

InterContinental Miami – Dining & drinks

InterContinental focuses on a compact, high‑quality dining collection with signature Pan‑Latin and rooftop options.

  • Toro Toro (Pan‑Latin steakhouse) is the hotel’s signature evening venue and accepts reservations.
  • Olé serves a daily breakfast buffet and Starbucks in the lobby covers coffee and quick bites.
  • Bluewater on the rooftop serves poolside food and drinks; Freddy’s Speakeasy is a reservation-only cocktail den.

The Miami Beach EDITION – Dining & drinks

The Miami Beach EDITION offers a broader resort dining program and on-site nightlife.

  • Five restaurants cover a range of cuisines and there’s a coffee shop/cafe and 24-hour room service.
  • On-site nightclub and poolside scene support late‑night and leisure dining/drinking.
  • The hotel advertises Latin American cuisine at Matador Room among its dining options.

The EDITION is better if you want multiple on‑site dining options and resort nightlife without leaving property.

Pools & beach: Rooftop pool vs multiple pools and beachfront

InterContinental Miami – Pools & beach

InterContinental Miami has a single rooftop outdoor pool and a rooftop sundeck with cabanas.

  • Rooftop pool on the 5th-floor terrace overlooks Biscayne Bay and the skyline (reported ~60 feet long).

  • Two outdoor pools on-site plus direct access to Miami Beach and beach cabana rentals (surcharge).
  • Poolside programming and beach activities are central to the EDITION’s leisure offering.
  • Additional water-adjacent activities are listed nearby (snorkeling, sailing, kayaking, water skiing).

The EDITION is the clearer pick for beach days, pool variety and water-sport options.
