Hotels in Port Canaveral

[IslandToIsland]

I've looked on the Florida departure thread and not many responses there from people asking the same question. I'm looking for a decent, not too expensive hotel in Port Canaveral. I know the Radisson is right there, but looking for other suggestions. Thanks!

[rgwiazdzinski]

we booked comfort inn and suites in cocoa beach for our cruise in three weeks. i got it for 52.00 before taxs using pricline. there are several mainstream hotels in cocoa beach that are all very close to the port and the beach, and all want cruise business.

I would be interested in Port Canaveral Hotels, as well.....If I have the names, I can look up the amenities online. Which hotels cater to the port?

 

Thank you in advance.

Closest Hotels to Port Canaveral

 

All below 3 Cape Canaveral hotels are about 2 miles from the port and offer rooms with a view of the port, where you will be able to see the cruise ships in the morning. Be sure and sign up for the port shuttles. None of these 3 hotels are on the beach nor is it within walking distance of the beach (5 min cab ride). If you want the beach close, look for a hotel in Cocoa Beach – beachfront hotels are posted further down.

 

Radisson

Website: http://www.radisson.com/capecanaveralfl

Beginning July 9 2007 Radisson will officially offer free transportation for guests – the Area will be the Port, Cape Canaveral and Cocoa Beach, Merritt Square Mall and free transportation (to and from) and highly discounted tickets to Kennedy Space Center.

ROOM INFORMATION PER REQUEST

None of the rooms will give you an ocean view since they are several blocks from the ocean. The standard rooms are only 2 stories. the suite buildings are 3 stories. For standard rooms and either the 200 or 400 building for suites. The 200 building is closer to the pool although the pool area may get quite noisy so if you want a quiet area request courtyard view. The most favorite rooms are in the 800 building 2nd floor facing the pool. Be aware that most of the pool side rooms are king rooms. There are just a few rooms with 2 beds facing the pool.

Due to the construction of high rise condo's, there are very few rooms that will give you small views of the ships unfortunalty none have a wide open view of the port any more.

We just stayed at the Hollywood LaQuinta a couple weeks ago. It was very reasonable and extremely clean. The only downside, is there is no restaurant there. You CAN walk to a few places in about 10 minutes - easy walk - but there is nothing on site. They DO have a continental breakfast in the morning, with quite a large selection of food. It worked out good for us. They have a shuttle from the airport to the hotel... and then from the hotel to the port. Nice quiet, clean place!

[suezyq50]

We have stayed at the Residence Inn and the Country Inn and Suites. Both were fine and will stay again at either one.

[smalltimecruiser100]

a month ago bef SOS 4 nt and loved it. Staff and room were great as well as the food at the restaurant. Love those drinks served in a coconut. About 5 miles away from port.:)

Hello Volfan

If you will go to this thread simply due to the fact it is all about Port Canaveral, it will hold all the answers you will need to come over here.

It was start by Preston (Psbcap) and again it has a wealth of information.

Glad I could help

Thank You all so much! Now its time to research :)

[steffie]

We have always stayed at the Cocoa Beach Oceanside Inn. It has always been clean and the people friendly. Right next to the pier and on the beach. Takes about 10 minutes or so to get to the Port.
