About

Howard Johnson Plaza Miami Beach North

Howard Johnson Plaza Miami Beach North sits on Collins Avenue, about a six-minute walk from North Shore Open Space Park and the Atlantic Ocean. The three-star property offers straightforward comfort with air-conditioned rooms, a swimming pool, and a bar/lounge area. While it's not the newest or most polished option on the strip, it delivers on location and value.

The hotel has undergone a renovation that gives it a fresher feel, and guests frequently note the convenience of the area. With Collins Avenue's attractions and restaurants nearby, and South Beach reachable by public transport in about an hour, it suits travelers who want to be near the action without the full South Beach price tag.
