Hotels pre-cruise in fll

[teacup317]

Hello all -

 

We are scheduled to depart FLL on May 3 on the Oasis of the Seas for our 60th Birthday Cruise. We have reserved a pre-cruise room at Best Western International. Prices seen good. We were wondering if anyone else had stayed here. ? Good neighborhood (two ladies traveling) and any other comments you may have.

 

Thanks!:)

You might try the Florida departures board, there may be more information there.

I would recommend also checking out the reviews on Tripadvisor. I'm not sure if this is your hotel, but you can do a search (they show 2 Best Westerns): http://www.tripadvisor.com/Hotel_Review-g34227-d80513-Reviews-BEST_WESTERN_PLUS_Fort_Lauderdale_Airport_Cruise_Port-Fort_Lauderdale_Florida.html. Have a great Oasis birthday cruise! :)

FYI, Cruises from this port at the end of April/early May run into Fleet week adn hotels fill out real fast. The top 5 or 10 most commonly used cruise hotels fill up in January for that weekend. (FYI, in case you think about changing)

Ive stayed at the Best Western Cruise Port Hotel, in Fort Lauderdale it is a nice hotel, Very clean and close to many restraunts and a liquor store and a grocery store.. I am staying there again in May.. The Shuttle to the cruise port is 8$ a person and pick up from the airport is free

Persaonlly I'd rec a hotel closer to the port and the downtown of Ft. L. Your date should offer reasonable rates for Hyatt Place North.

Thank you very much for all the advice. New to these boards. I'll look at the Florida Departure board as well. Happy Cruising!

I would pick something near nicer places. Check out The Doubletree at the Galleria Mall and the Riverside Hotel on Las Olas. I think you would at least like to walk to a nice meal the night before your cruise.

Thanks, just looked at the link and I'm satisfied that we made the right choice. My SIL works for Best Western and we are hoping she can get us a good rate with her Friends and Family Program. Happy Cruising!

I'm not sure which Best Western you are looking at, as there are several. The Best Western Oceanside is in the best neighborhood.

We are on the same cruise We booked Hyatt place through value trips and got a great rate.

Thanks, are you cruising on Oasis on May 3rd?

[teacup317]

Great, are you going to the Meet and Mingle?

That's good to hear. We are staying there for the first time in March as we got a really good rate thru LastMinuteTravel. Unfortunately, they were not available for our January cruise.

Has anyone stayed at the Best Western on Stirling Ave ?

Any info appreciated.
