Super Bowl Hotel Rooms Round-Up

Know somewhere with open hotel rooms for Super Bowl weekend in Miami?  Tip us off.

If you have to be in Miami for the Super Bowl, there are still hotel rooms available, especially just outside of Miami. The best way to book is to call the hotels directly. The further outside Miami, like Ft. Lauderdale and even West Palm Beach (63 miles from stadium), the better the chances are of finding rooms. But just remember--and we've been telling you this all week--you're gonna have to pay insane prices.

The NY Post travel blog mentions a few options like the $950-a-night, 4-night minimum Catalina Hotel in South Beach who will throw in free access to their Super Bowl party. Otherwise, be prepared to fork over $400 a night for crappy airport hotels.

Obviously, with people paying unheard of prices for rooms, Miami is expecting to do record business during this Super Bowl. The Deauville Beach Resort however was not one to miss out on this profitable weekend and pulled a Hollywood Roosevelt, canceling rooms booked by wedding guests who were only paying $139 a night.

Meanwhile, Chicago fans who can't make it to Miami will no doubt see the Super Bowl spirit in their hometown. The Four Seasons Chicago has dressed up the bronze statue out in front in a  Rex Grossman jersey and are serving "Rex On The Beach," a "Good As Gould" margarita and a "Ras-BEAR-y" martini at the hotel bar.

In Indianapolis, the Omni hotel there is promising that if the Colts win then the Omni hotel in Chicago will pay for their rooms on Sunday night and vice versa.

Fans can book rooms for the night of Feb. 4, asking for the "Chicago Pays" package in Indianapolis.
When they check in, their credit cards will be run for $141 (in honor of Super Bowl XLI, or 41). If the Colts win, Indianapolis guests' lodging bills will be zeroed out the next morning when they check out, paid for by the Chicago hotel.

For those of you who still want to do something special Super Bowl weekend without the hassle of Miami, we suggest Las Vegas and the Top Five casino hotel sports books. On Hotels.com, rooms at New York New York are going at $200 a piece and $250 for the MGM Grand. Just get to the sports book early--heck, maybe even get drunk there on Saturday night and camp out in a chair through the Super Bowl.
