Hi Cruise Crazies,

Can somebody recommend me some Fort Lauderdale hotels that are a little bit central to the

atractions ? Like Port Everglades, Restaurants, Shops, Beaches etc. ?

Thanks,

Gustacruise :rolleyes2:

We stayed at the Embassy Suites about a half a mile from Port Everglades. We really enjoyed it!

FLL hotels in which we stayed in the order of our preference:

Hyatt Regency Pier Sixty-Six: http://www.pier66.hyatt.com/hyatt/hotels/index.jsp

A bit pricey, but very nice and very close to the port.

Radisson Bahia Mar: http://www.bahiamarhotel.com/

Has a walkway overpass to the ocean. We've stayed there 3 times, however it's been a few years now.

Sheraton Yankee Clipper: http://www.starwoodhotels.com/sheraton/pro...?propertyID=664

On the ocean, however our room had filthy carpet and we would not recommend.

Marriott North: http://www.marriott.com/hotels/travel/fllc...marriott-north/

Nice hotel, however it's not close to the port.

The last place we stayed at was the Sea Club Resort

619 Fort Lauderdale Beach Boulevard

Fort Lauderdale, FL 33304

Area:

Downtown Fort Lauderdale - Beach, Florida, United States of America

Many downtown attractions are centered on the Riverwalk, Fort Lauderdale’s chief arts, entertainment, and shopping district. Its landmarks include the Museum of Arts Fort Lauderdale and trendy Las Olas Boulevard. The Broward County Convention Center lies southeast of the downtown core. Nearby, palm trees shadow the promenade along Fort Lauderdale Beach, among the cleanest in the nation.

Or call 1-800-551

We found if very convienient (once we figured out where we were and how to get around Ft Lauderdale)

I just used Priceline today and won a room at the Renaissance Fort Lauderdale for $60 ($74 after tax and fees.) It's about a mile and a half from Port Everglades and I think about 11 miles from the airport. Looks like a great hotel, based on the website pics I perused, and I am really happy to report that if I had booked directly through the Renaissance website a king room would have been $189! If you try this you need to bid for a 4-star, zone 2 hotel. I started out at $50 and was not accepted until I reached $60. This is my first time using priceline, so I am a little concerned that our room may be two lounge chairs in the broom closet, but I think we'll be ok!
