The mid-range Hampton Inn & Suites Miami-Doral/Dolphin Mall is a fine example of the company's chain of hotels. The hotel is convenient for guests in town for an event -- graduation at FIU or a Marlins game -- or those looking for a base from which to explore the Everglades. The 121 rooms are contemporary and clean, outfitted with free Wi-Fi and flat-screen TVs, plus suites add kitchenettes. An outdoor pool has an adjacent bar and all rates include a free hot breakfast. The hotel is a 20-minute drive from the airport, so travelers who want to be a bit closer may prefer the Comfort Suites Miami Airport North.
