BEST Hotel near Port Everglades: The Hilton Ft. Lauderdale Marina | CRUISE VLOG DAY 0 

Thanks for sharing...the hotel sounds like it's the perfect fit for me 😅

Favorite pre-cruise hotel. There's something to be said for some of the hotels on Hwy-17 a little more in-land which are a little bit less of a walk to the bars & restaurants, but it's really hard to beat the view of the cruise port. Love getting up at the crack of dawn on cruise day and watching the ship(s) come in. It is funny that it seems like walking distance to the ships but the way they funnel traffic in through security forces a fairly wide drive around the port to get to the terminals, especially those on the far side. Princess is the nearest terminal and that has a much closer entrance than those on the far side.

Good review - thanks. We stayed there in Nov for a Celebrity cruise out of Terminal 25, and that's pretty much how we remember it, and we would consider it again as it's a lovely hotel and location, but are staying somewhere else this month, as prices rose dramatically (as everywhere as it's Feb and high season!). Yes it's close, but you can't walk to the Terminal (an Uber was about $15) as some have hoped/suggested. There is some road noise (it's near a road) and it was (or is) a construction zone, but it's not bad and shall pass. As stated, shopping and restaurants are a 10-15 min walk.

Great review guys .we are staying at this Hotel In 2024 before we board the celebrity Beyond for a 7 night Cruise .not only will this be our first Cruise It will be my fist experience of the USA as we are from the UK ..
