Reading the cards: minutes are our estimates from map distance, so they say "about". Breakfast, suites and kitchens are what each hotel brand promises across its hotels, not something we checked room by room. The places listed under a hotel are the closest ones within roughly a 10-minute walk of its door.
Room-price links and the Amazon buttons on this page pay us a small commission. The price you see there is unaffected. Thank you!Booking and Amazon links can pay us a commission. Thank you!How this site earns
University of Miami holds its main ceremony at Watsco Center, usually in May. On our map, 1 place to stay sits no more than about a 10-minute walk from it and 1 within about 20. 1 is within about 15 minutes on foot of both the venue and the tour start. Several ceremonies, all at the Watsco Center. Month taken from the page's spring link name ("may-commencement"); the spring dates were not read (that page returned 404).
Rooms close to campus tend to go first for commencement, often months ahead and with a two-night minimum. If the walkable ones are gone, sort the list by the 10-minute drive chip and look one town over. Our graduation weekend guide covers timing.
