IMKTDQT810 Posted May 23, 2021 #1 Share Posted May 23, 2021 I was day dreaming today that in one year we will be under a month until sailing. Not sure if we will drive (7hrs) or Fly yet (4-5 hrs with layover) but do know we want to arrive the day before. So I thought I would check out Expedia of hotels within walking distance to the port and EVERYTHING is sold out that day prior. Am I trying to book it to early or am I looking into it too late? I think we want the Hilton Main since incase we are flying and walking to the terminal we don't have a long walk with luggage....but even the Hilton website (to book directly with them) are sold out. Thoughts? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gypsywych Posted May 23, 2021 #2 Share Posted May 23, 2021 Hotels don't normally post their available rooms until less than a year out. Check back in late June/Early July. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare pasodancer Posted May 30, 2021 #3 Share Posted May 30, 2021 I would also book the room as soon as you hit the magic "333" days out.....a lot of the downtown Norfolk hotels book very very fast (military town - lots of in/out w/our great military here not to mention contractors). You will absolutely love Waterside District - so much to see & do within easy walking distance. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IMKTDQT810 Posted June 14, 2021 Author #4 Share Posted June 14, 2021 I've still been looking to book and even though other hotels in the surrounding areas are showing availability most near the Waterside District are still showing as sold out. I guess I need to figure out that 333 magical date to book it! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare pasodancer Posted June 14, 2021 #5 Share Posted June 14, 2021 It will be 333 days prior to the day you want it - you can always call customer service and ask when they will be taking reservations for the dates you desire. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That should help give you an idea as to when your dates should open up. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IMKTDQT810 Posted June 16, 2021 Author #7 Share Posted June 16, 2021 I called this morning and as stated it has not opened to book yet and they suggested I check back online in July. This is a surprise "Christmas Gift" cruise so I can't put it on my calendar since DH and I have a joint calendar (glad I remembered that while entering it into my phone then quickly deleted it without saving....lol) but at least I feel better knowing they are not booked yet!
