surrounded by the energy and worldly sophistication of this magical city, the EPIC Hotel is one of the many flourishing components of its vibrant Miami home. The tropical climate encourages an ease and joyful abundance that readily can be seen throughout this dynamic city.

With the greatest concentration of international banks of any city in the U.S., Miami is a major financial center in the midst of a very energetic metropolitan environment. This urban dynamic is wonderfully balanced by the natural beauty that surrounds the city–Miami is the only major city in the country to be bordered by two national parks:

Biscayne National Park and Everglades National Park. Recently named "America's Cleanest City" by Forbes Magazine, this glittering city certainly offers ample green space, clean streets, excellent drinking water and high year-round air quality.

The new EPIC, a Kimpton Hotel, was made for Miami. While the hotel is a destination in itself, it puts you near all manner of Miami attractions. Located just ten minutes from Miami's South Beach, half a mile from Miami's Bayside Market Place and less than one mile from the Port of Miami, our hotel puts you in the heart of this dynamic city.
