Shocker Posted August 9, 2018 #1 Share Posted August 9, 2018 I need a place to stay in Fort Lauderdale on February 15th for one night. I have been checking the hotels and for a room in a decent hotel I only find $200 and up. Maybe they don't understand I do not want to buy the room just rent it for one night!!!! If anyone has suggestions I would appreciate the help. i am looking for a room for 3 adults for less than 150.00 if possible. Thank you Dave Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
springtx249 Posted August 9, 2018 #2 Share Posted August 9, 2018 I booked Hotel Morrison in February for under the $150. New hotel, just not sure about the location. It is in Dania Beach. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare Roz Posted August 9, 2018 #3 Share Posted August 9, 2018 February is peak season, so $200 and up sounds like the going rate. Roz Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RocketMan275 Posted August 9, 2018 #4 Share Posted August 9, 2018 If you're driving down, you might want to consider spending the night outside of FLL and then drive to the port on embarkation day. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ashland Posted August 9, 2018 #5 Share Posted August 9, 2018 You can also price the Hyatt Place using http://www.valuetrips.com great hotel and location....hot breakfast buffet, shuttle from FLL to their hotel $2.00 per room booked and right next to the Harbor Shopping center with a Publix market, shops and restaurants. Their bookings for 2019 should be available on their website this September. Best of luck. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JohninDC Posted August 9, 2018 #6 Share Posted August 9, 2018 www.sunny.org has lots of FLL area hotel and tourist info. As mentioned above, Feb is peak tourist season and prices will be sky high :eek:; book something now that you can live with and can be cancelled without penalty - then keep shopping!

merinski Posted August 9, 2018 #7 Share Posted August 9, 2018 We are also looking for a hotel for near that date. I am having a hard time paying over $200 too! The only thing is, I am concerned that anything under that price with be a dump! We did look at the Morrison.. not sure about the area... Thanks for the sites... Any other ideas are appreciated Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Travelexpert35 Posted August 9, 2018 #8 Share Posted August 9, 2018 We stayed at the Riverside Hotel in Ft Lauderdale. It’s over $200 but the location was perfect. Lots of restaurants and shops right outside your door. I would highly recommend it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
capriccio Posted August 10, 2018 #9 Share Posted August 10, 2018 Just a warning that the most expensive week in February (actually one of the most expensive of the year) for lodging is President's Day week when many public schools in New England and other areas have winter break. Next year that week is from Saturday, February 16 to Sunday, February 24. Plus the Sunday before President's Day (Feb 17) is the day of the Fort Lauderdale Marathon (which isn't nearly as big as Boston, NYC or the Marine Corps/Washington, DC marathons but it does bring in out of towners).

OVgirl Posted August 10, 2018 #12 Share Posted August 10, 2018 Try Lastminutetravelclub. They have Sleep Inn, Dania for $146+tx. Walgreens and Walmart on either side. Fairly basic hotel, but we find it suits our needs for overnight accomodation before a cruise. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
spidybabe Posted August 11, 2018 #13 Share Posted August 11, 2018 We recently stayed at the Holiday inn express 17th Street. It was in a great location and not very $$. We would definitely book this hotel again Sent from my SM-N950U using Forums mobile app Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
1josh777 Posted August 11, 2018 #14 Share Posted August 11, 2018 I booked Hotel Morrison in February for under the $150. New hotel, just not sure about the location. It is in Dania Beach. I just stayed at this hotel and had a great experience. Clean and close to airport. They have 24h shuttle service. Other hotels in the area run until 12 or 2am. I booked through Hotwire.

bettyboop16 Posted August 11, 2018 #15 Share Posted August 11, 2018 You can also price the Hyatt Place using www.valuetrips.com great hotel and location....hot breakfast buffet, shuttle from FLL to their hotel $2.00 per room booked and right next to the Harbor Shopping center with a Publix market, shops and restaurants.

Keep a check on the website for when they release next year schedule. It may take them some time before they get back to you. I think I waited about 2 weeks. Or you could use priceline....we done that also. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jb456 Posted August 12, 2018 #16 Share Posted August 12, 2018 Check priceline and hotwire. I just checked quick for your dates, lots of options. One on priceline just now was 3.5 star, north fort lauderdale area, 7+rating for $93. $116.97 with tax. With priceline its pretty easy to figure out the hotel you would get or at least narrow it down before booking. Open 1 page of all the hotels they offer and one page with the express deals. On page of all hotels, tick the amenities that is offered on the express deal. Tick the area the express deal is and sometimes if there is a few left use the rating. Might be 3 hotels left 2 with 8+ rating and one with 7+ rating. Then you pretty much know it will be that. Anyways how to figure them out is for another thread lol. The one I mentioned I am pretty sure it is Sheraton Suites Fort Lauderdale At Cypress Creek. If it is and you guys are using uber then its like 5 miles to the beach and around 12 miles to port everglades cruise port. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
springtx249 Posted August 12, 2018 #17 Share Posted August 12, 2018 With Hotwire or Priceline you can always check with Betterbidding.com. They are pretty accurate at telling you the hotels by stars for these sites. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
