A wonderful venue for any occasion, in my humble opinion. We were in a clear sided tent which was well illuminated and the air conditioning did not disappoint. The management has contacts for event management, music, food, decor, etc. I do not know if the family brought in their own music and catering or used the venue's, but both were very good. Highly recommend!

I stayed here for 3 nights, for my back to back pre cruise stay, here is my review:…read more Good: Location, Location, Location. It's in downtown Miami, with lotsa restaurants nearby. There is a Whole Foods half a block away, and majority of the restaurants, including a CVS drug store are in that area, within 2/3 block away from the hotel. Bank atm are across the draw bridge. We didn't use the monorail for we are busy exploring the city by foot, lol. Not so good: The hotel restaurant, Riverview bar and grill - Although lovely, the menu was limiting, the same menu for both lunch and dinner. The wagyu burger was expensive for what you get and bland in taste at best. It's like it's been out there for awhile and just waiting to be order, it's also dry. Cruise line hamburger were much better in taste. The rest of my order including the drinks were delicious ! Solution: Need to expand their menu items. For a " regency" hotel, I was surprised it was very limiting. Expand the dinner menu, I saw a couple of people having dinner at the restaurant, probably fellow cruisers like us. The African American lady host was friendly, hospitable and kind. Reception/ Customer Service - My reservation requires a pre-payment at time of booking, one night stay charged, approximately $200.00, it's already been charged and cleared by my Ccard company some hyatt hotel only do Ccard authorization anywhere between $1.00 - $50.00 when reservation requires a pre-payment. But why in the world, this young Latino man charged me the entire 3 night stay at check in for $927.00 ? My Ccard decline the authorization, I asked to try again was but declined again. Didn't say anything nor didn't apologize either. Imagined my shocked and embarrassment !!! I told him to hold on, scramble my finances for about 5 mins and told him to try again, it went thru this time, but again no apology no word, just handed me my keys and that was it. Maybe the hotel manager need to address the issue re: paid - pre-payment authorization vs credits card authorization at check in. That " too young to know, too young to care mentality" never fails. Noise: For the most part, the hotel is quiet, it just those stupid, ignorant, cacky race car drivers who thinks they own the road, by blasting their (borrowed) sports car engine all day and night ! Not the hotel fault! They were having a renovation/ repair in the lobby while we were there . This hotel is hopping with flight attendants stays and hotel sponsored events. I will stay again for the convenience!

Good: location Bad: you can hear EVERYTHING…read more Ultimately, I chose this hotel due to location. It is in the heart of downtown and you can walk to the pier, restaurants, and the river. However, the walls are paper thin! There's signs all over the floors saying quiet hours at 9pm to 7am. But you can still hear your neighbors laughing and having full on conversations. I don't even think they're loud! Also the hotel is located right outside the river bridge. Every few minutes you can hear the bells and whistles outside the window on top of the typical Miami honking. I just expected more from this hotel being a Hyatt Regency. Oh well.

I had never heard of The Temple House before yesterday. Where have I been? Lol I looked at their website before tonight's event and was very impressed with the photos of previous events at this venue. A man with white gloves opened the doors for us. The food was delicious. I met a guy who said he has been to two weddings here and they were both awesome. This is a great space and very large. You could configure the space however you want. It sounds like they really work with you for your unique needs. Their sound system is amazing. They even had tacos for us when we left!! This place is super fun and hip. If you are ever invited to an event here, I cannot see where you would have a bad time.

In 1964 Muhammed Ali defeated Sonny Liston here and in 1968 it hosted the Republican National Convention. Between 2015-2020 the convention center was renovated at a cost of 620 million dollars. Today it is a 1.4-million-square-foot, LEED Silver-certified facility. There is a Grand Ballroom, 500,000 square feet of flexible exhibition halls, 4 junior ballrooms, outdoor terraces and parks, and eighty-four breakout rooms. One of the biggest events of the year is Art Basal. More than 600,000 people visit the convention center every year. If you are coming to the convention center you can park at the convention center garage for $20 or walk a block away to the 17th Street garage for $2 an hour. The convention center is a large, modern space that was ideal for the event I attended, Playoff Fan Central, an interactive experience held over three days in conjunction with the College Football Playoff National Championship. The convention center is so large that a football field was constructed inside along with all of the other booths and exhibitors. The restrooms were convenient and clean. Security was tight and and I felt safe during the event. The convention center is across the street from the Miami Beach Botanical Gardens and withing walking distance of Lincoln Road and many other Miami Beach restaurants, shops, and attractions. It's convenient location makes it particularly attractive to visitors.

It's bright, clean, modern, and massive--yet still felt well maintained throughout the event. With large venues like this, I'm usually skeptical of the restrooms, but kudos to the team. They were clean, thoughtfully designed, and well kept. I especially appreciated the full privacy between stalls and the dedicated space to place your bag. It's the little things that make a difference. Parking was fairly easy, and getting in wasn't an issue. One improvement would be clearer signage directing guests to the best entrance based on the location of event rooms, which would make navigating smoother. Overall, a solid venue for large-scale events with great attention to comfort and cleanliness. IG @shallonztable Where food meets adventure. See you back at the table.

We even got an almond croissant from the cafe before starting our tour--pretty good. I'd recommend as entry here is also free! :)

Come on the last Sunday of every month and it's free entrance and family day with activities for the kiddos.

We attended a wedding reception at the Penthouse at Riverside Wharf in downtown Miami and had a…read morewonderful time. This is a great event venue mainly for a couple reasons: 1. It has excellent elevated views of the Miami skyline to the east and the Miami River, boats, and the W Flagler St Drawbridge (historical landmark, built in 1938) to the west. I believe the penthouse is located on the 10th floor of a relatively new building. 2. The venue is modern and versatile. The inside spaces (including restrooms) had a clean, updated look. For this event, there were multiple bars and food stations set up both indoors and outdoors. The dance floor was outside. The combination of string lights, rooftop patio decor, and the city skyline was beautiful. There was only one elevator to get everyone up and down, so there was a bottleneck there. They brought in a fire dancer to perform outside on the rooftop, which was really cool.

I absolutely loved the views here, which is why this place gets 5 stars!
