Need a hotel for a few hours of sleep in Ft. Lauderdale

[dollbanks]

Hi, hoping someone can give me a recommendation on a hotel to stay at for a few hours of sleep in Ft. Lauderdale if we decide to take a redeye flight. We are a family of four, 2 adults and two kids and thinking of taking a flight that gets into Ft. Lauderdale at 1:00 am. We have a hotel booked at Intercontinental Miami for two days before our cruise so we didn’t want to spend a lot of money on a hotel in Ft. Lauderdale for a few hours of sleep. With kids no way we’re sleeping at the airport.😌 We would prefer to have a hotel near the airport with free shuttle or a quick cab ride there.

 

Thanks in advance for any recommendations you might have.

try rodeway inn in Ft Lauderdale.  If it's a July trip the rates are fairly cheap for a one night stay.  I don't know if there are any 'by the hour' inns ....don't know if I'd want to stay at one anyways.

We did this in July. We had a late flight coming home after our cruise so we wanted somewhere to rest after our cruise and take a nap. We stayed here since they had day rooms. It's not a great hotel, I normally wouldn't stay at a place like this but for the price it was fairly decent enough to stay for the day.

I would priceline a Fort Lauderdale Airport Hotel room for that night.  Call the hotel and let them know you will not be arriving until after 1am.  Call that day also.

Yes after checking out some reviews, we decided against this hotel. I guess I'm asking a little too much. We just might pay the extra cost and get a flight with decent times. Thanks for your feedback.

Thanks! I never thought of that.
