The hotel

Epic by name and epic by nature, the Kimpton Epic sits along the water’s edge, overlooking the glistening Biscayne Bay. Take a dip into one of the two rooftop pools, and sip on a cocktail in your private poolside cabana. Seeing as you’re set on the waterfront, seafood is a must, and you can dine looking out on the sea itself. In need of some me-time? Head to the spa for a treatment, or try your hand at a yoga class. And when the evenings roll in, head out and experience one of Miami’s cool bars, or retreat to your room for some down-time.

The Kimpton EPIC is a fantastic choice when visiting Downtown Miami. Beautiful accommodations, spectacular waterfront views, efficient check-in, and excellent room service made for a very comfortable stay. The hotel’s location is a major advantage. Zuma is conveniently located on the property, Area 31 on the 16th floor offers a wonderful rooftop atmosphere and happy hour, and both Hell’s Kitchen and the Brickell neighborhood are easily accessible on foot. What truly stood out, however, was the valet service. Ramon deserves special recognition for his outstanding hospitality. He was consistently courteous, attentive, and efficient, ensuring my vehicle was ready without unnecessary delays. He also went above and beyond by providing helpful directions and recommendations for exploring the surrounding neighborhood. A beautiful hotel is always appreciated, but exceptional employees are what make an experience memorable. Ramon and the valet team certainly delivered. Highly recommended! Read less

My experience at the Kimpton EPIC Hotel in Miami was absolutely wonderful from beginning to end. The property is beautiful, the rooms are elegant and comfortable, and the views of the Miami skyline are breathtaking. The check-in process was seamless, and the room service was excellent. One of the highlights was Area 31, located on the 16th floor near the rooftop pool. The atmosphere, beautiful views, and happy hour made it a fantastic place to relax. Having Zuma conveniently located within the hotel was another great addition to the experience. I especially want to recognize Ramon Chavez from the valet team. His professionalism, efficiency, and attention to detail were outstanding. My vehicle was always delivered promptly, and he was extremely helpful when I asked for recommendations around the area. He even provided directions to Hell’s Kitchen, which is within walking distance, and explained how easily I could explore Brickell just across the bridge. The entire experience exceeded my expectations. Excellent hospitality, a beautiful property, and exceptional service. I would absolutely recommend this hotel! Read less

A nice gentleman named Ramon Chavez who works at the velvet was a wonderful person. He helped me with my luggage and gave me a lot of recommendations where to go to. During my stay here he was the most memorable person. I would recommend this place just for them to be taken care of by Ramon.
