Hotel recommendation needed
Could someone recommend either a Hilton or Marriott chain hotel near the
passenger terminal in Ft Lauderdale? (We have points for those two) Would like one with good restaurants and/or shopping within walking distance. Thanks for your help E.K. |

Our first choice when we have enough Hilton points is the Embassy Suites. They have a very good, free, breakfast buffet, made to order eggs etc. and the suites are very comfortable. There are lots of very good restaurants very close by, plus shopping center, drug stores and supermarket all just a short walk. sue |

And it's a short walk from the water taxi that you can take to Las Olas Blvd or other places. --Tom |

I have watched that change over the past many years from a once civilized cocktail hour to an attitude of "get all the free booze you can in the time allotted. But, I still think it's a nice perk.

While not a Hilton itself or even an Embassy Suites, I use the Hampton Inn Ft. Lauderdale Airport North Cruise Port. Has free shuttle to and from the airport and hotel and also the cruise terminal and hotel. Others charge a fee. As a matter of fact I am staying there tomorrow night on Hilton Honors points and then again after my cruise next Sunday night the 17th. |

Are there any restaurants within walking distance? sue |

Are there any restaurants within walking distance? sue Yes, Hampton Inns are part of the Hilton chain. (Sorry about the joke I tried to make but when I stay at a non-Hilton condo property or hotel with my grandkids I tell them that so they won't expect too much as they are used to staying in my Hilton Grand Vacations Timeshare in Orlando.) While the Hampton Inn does offer a continental breakfast (similar to most of the cheaper chain hotels) it does not serve dinner or lunch. There are some restaurants in the neighborhood and while I haven't tried this with this Hampton Inn most of them will do a drop-off and pickup at a restaurant if it isn't too much out of the way when they do their regular run to and from the airport. A simple phone call usually suffices to find out this pertinent information. The hotel's number is: 954-524-9900. These are the restaurants they say are in the area and there are probably mo Chuck's Steakhouse Bravo's Italian Georgio's Carlos N Pepes Bimini Boatyard Outback Steakhouse |

Since Kevin isn't traveling for business anymore, we have to make a Hilton property reservation soon or lose his points. sue |
