JGORD7 Posted January 31, 2012 #1 Share Posted January 31, 2012 We are cruising on April 8th 2012 & just wondered if anyone had an opinion on the Hilton Fort Lauderdale Marina? I see its right on 17th street & close to port & it looks lovely online but wanted an actual persons opinion. Thanks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PattyG12 Posted January 31, 2012 #2 Share Posted January 31, 2012 It's a beautiful hotel. However, if you want free internet access you'll need to go to the lobby. Also, there is NOTHING around it. It's about a 1/2 mile walk to anything quick to eat. The restaurants there are pretty high. We loved the hotel ... nice big rooms, comfy beds. If you ask the concierge they will give you some recommendations for delivery food. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kew Gardens Cruiser Posted February 2, 2012 #3 Share Posted February 2, 2012 2 years ago we stayed at the Embassy Suites down the block. The Hilton looked really nice and it is right next to the water taxi that will take you to the shops and restaurants on Las Olas Blvd. We are going to stay at the Hilton Marina pre cruise for our upcoming 2/13/12 Liberty of the Seas Cruise so I will report back when I return Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CVU Posted February 2, 2012 #4 Share Posted February 2, 2012 We have stayed there 3 times and booked again for April. We are walkers and further down the street we found a restaurant we like. There is a nice walk along the pier beside the hotel, to ogle the huge yachts during an evening stroll. Relaxing area around the pool too. We like staying there.:) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
aloisia Posted February 2, 2012 #5 Share Posted February 2, 2012 We loved our stay at the Hilton Marina! Beautiful pool area and the water taxi is just behind the hotel. We ended up taking the water taxi to Las Olas Blvd for dinner. On the way to the port, I just had the taxi driver wait while I ran into Walgreens? & bought a few bottles of wine. We'd certainly stay there again. :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
