SpringHill Suites Fort Lauderdale Airport

[familyofd]

Stayed here July 2, I was very happy with everything in this hotel, our rooms were clean, pool was warm, and ladies at front desk were very very helpful.

Did not have any problems with shuttle or parking, we left our car there for

cruise . Its about 15 min away from port , very close to airport, and a very busy area ! there are shops close and the best burritos are within a short distance. I would book here again with no problem.Shuttle back from cruise

is 8.00 person.

What rate did you pay? Did they offer complementary transportation from airport and/or to ship's terminal? How about breakfast?

 

Thanks, in advance.

I stayed there a year ago. The had complimentary shuttle to/from the airport. Complementary breakfast also. The shuttle to/from the port was extra cost, a nominal fee if I recall, something like $5 per person. We didn't use the cruise terminal shuttle because it left later than we wanted. Took a cab for $25 for a party of 5.

 

I agree with what the OP said. We were very happy with our stay there.

We paid 120.00 total for room, the shuttle to cruiseport was free, other then to tip driver, going back from cruise port was 8.00,Im pretty sure its free for the shuttle for airport.

Yes there was breakfast in morning, usual items and its very busy early due to everyone leaving for their trips.

Glad to see this post. I purchased this hotel on Hotwire for our precruise stay. Many positive reviews for this Springhill Suites. Thanks for sharing your experience.

How many stars is it on Hotwire and what "zone" is it in. Also, what amenities does it show when looking on Hotwire? Sounds like a great place to stay one night pre-cruise.

This site will give a bit more info especially for any of you wanting to be closer to the port/pier. Be sure to double chesk all info in regards to your date of stay as hotels often change things up during different seasons.

 

Counting on shuttle service when booking can leave you with long waits or inconvenient schedules. Lots choose to forgo that and just use cabs.

We had 21 people for shuttle and as soon as we arrived for the day we all booked the shuttle, so we were the 1st ones on it , I do not know how long

after us people had to wait, we also drove and needed hotels that offered free parking for when we were on the cruise :).

I was wondering if the Sunshine Trolley serves this hotel? Does anyone know? We will not have a car either, and would like to stay someplace served by the trolley. Thank you so much!

There is a large shopping plaza across the main highway from this hotel. There is a Big KMart which should have everything that you need.

I don't believe this hotel is served by the Sun Trolley.

You can go to Dania Beach website and it says the city provides a free trolley and gives the routes and schedules of it. It doesn't run on Sundays and only until 5:30 pmon the other days. Google Dania Beach, FL and the official website is listed.
