advice for a hotel room in Miami prior to cruise?

Flying in the night before. Never left out of Miami - always Orlando with our trusty Hyatt Regency Airport. Planning my game plan for the Miami departure. Are there Disney Cruise preferred hotels?
TIA!

This is from the Disney site::
Disney Cruise Line recommends two hotels for pre- and post-night stays in Miami:

• Conrad Miami Hotel
• Marriott Stanton South Beach Hotel

We've used the Holiday Inn on Biscayne Blvd for a post cruise stay this past February, and are using the YVE, also on Biscayne Blvd. just a couple block from the HI, for our WBPC next May. They are more in line with what we can afford for a hotel nite... the Conrad and Marriott are a little above our price point.

Hope this helps with your planning.

We stayed at the Conrad Miami for our Wonder cruise this past January. We checked in with the hotel and then walked over to the DCL desk and checked in for our cruise transfer the next morning. It was very convenient. The hotel is also located in a great area with tons of restaurants and shops within walking distance. We also walked to a grocery store and liquor store to stock up for the cruise.

Number 1 on Tripadvisor. We stayed there last year before WBPC and were very pleased.
