Guest Room Blocks in Miami/Ft Lauderdale

mmiele105

Hi Knotties!  I'm getting married at the Biltmore in Coral Gables and the room rates they've quoted me are way above what I expect my guests to pay.  I'm getting married March 2, so I expect that nice hotels will be quite pricey during spring break/tourist season.  I'm living in NY now so I can't see the hotels but I want to set aside a block in the near future so the early planners can start booking their rooms.  Does anyone have hotel suggestions basically anywhere in Miami or Fort Lauderdale?  I'm looking for rooms in the $100-$150/night range, preferably nice hotels near water or popular areas.  Help!

Check out the Sole on the Beach in Sunny Isles - about $125

The Park Central Hotel - $125

Westin Diplomat in Coral Gables....not far from the Biltmore.

I like the Hampton Inn Coconut Grove (http://www.hamptoninncoconutgrove.com/), which it is close enough to Coral Gables.

The Hampton Inn Coconut Grove is a nice choice, but if you want others...
