HELP Just received bad news

[kevin priestley]

Hello I just spent the better part of two hours on the computer and then calling Marriot directly only to find out that the Spring Hill Suites in Fort Lauderdale by Marriot has been sold. Now the problem, my wife and I loved the SHS, having stayed their four previous times before our cruises.Now we are looking for a place to stay for 6 to 7 couples for a Friday stay at a hotel for a reasonable rate that has free transports to and from the Airport and the port as well as complimentary breakfast. Can anyone help us out. We are going to arrive December 1, 2006.

Are they not honoring standing reservations?

Is the hotel closed?

Ask them for a recommendation.

Marriot sold the SHS to an outfit called The Stirling Suites which Marriot gave us the phone number but we would like to use our Marriot points and we also have 6 to 7 other couples coming so we need something reasonable.I callled the Stirling Suites but they told us to book on line but we could not get a rate.

Try the Amerisuites. Shuttle both ways and a good continental breakfast.

There are a ton of Marriott Properties in Fll.

 

Renaissance Fort Lauderdale Hotel

 

Fort Lauderdale Marina Marriott

Marriott's BeachPlace Towers, A Marriott Vacation Club Resort

Harbor Beach Marriott Resort & Spa

Courtyard Fort Lauderdale Airport & Cruise Port

Courtyard Fort Lauderdale East

TownePlace Suites Fort Lauderdale West

Fairfield Inn Fort Lauderdale North

Fort Lauderdale Marriott North

Courtyard Fort Lauderdale North/Cypress Creek

And these are all in Fort Lauderdale and Marriott properties. Some closer to the ports than others, but if you call the Marriott (800) number, they can tell you which ones are closest. Good luck.

I recommend tripadvisor.com to check for property reviews.

Good advice. tripadvisor is a great site for hotel reviews. You might also want to post a question or do a search at the Marriot board at flyertalk.com

Hampton Inn Ft. Lauderdale Airport North !!

 

After 2 stays, I can't imagine anywhere else for just a pre-cruise night. Free transporation to/from airport & cruiseport as well as to restaurants, etc. Clean facilities & excellent service from all staff!
