The hotel was fine and the shuttle was excellent. The hotel does not provide airport shuttle. You would have to take taxi/ uber to the hotel around $30 plus and approximately 30 drive from airport and about 10 /15 minutes north of cruise port. I would try Trinityreservations.com Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PigsCanFly Posted January 1, 2019 #27 Share Posted January 1, 2019 The shuttle is provided by KD Elite? This will be our 3rd use of this hotel/parking/shuttle cruise out of Baltimore and it works well for us. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As you said, in addition to the weather issues, there are so many more choices of ships in Florida. Perhaps it's because they are doing a B2B2B? Maybe something special about that they could not do out of Florida? I hope so! We are coming from the west coast of Florida to Baltimore for a 2019 New Years Eve cruise on the Grandeur because we are sailing with family coming from New York and Virginia. Trying to decide whether to drive or fly. We have the time to drive since we are retired but curious if anyone has an suggestions. If we drive, we are looking for a stay, park and sail deal too. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you drive try Trinityreservations.com Some people will recommend Best Western on O'Donnell street you would have to drive about 10 minutes past cruise port. The hotels in the BWI hotel district will have plenty of options Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
daffyraffy Posted March 10, 2019 #31 Share Posted March 10, 2019 Thank you Tony O. We will keep this handy. Thinking I may just go ahead and make a reservation since there is 100% refund if cancelled 24 hours prior. Seems very reasonable. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For me (recognizing we all have different backgrounds and preferences), I would drive if I had the time. I suspect Christmas/New Years flight prices will be higher, and I can probably adjust more for weather driving than flying. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My issue with this place is twice we have gotten off ship early disembark with long drive home and both times waited 45-60 minutes for them. Not super close to port but on a Saturday early also no traffic to speak of. First time thought it was a fluke but won't stay there again. Other shuttles had picked up folks and returned for a second group. Both times we were in first group off ship for them to pick up, they had over 20 minutes notice.

Just note the BW+ is about 10 minutes north of the cruise port with a $6 toll to pay if you use the tunnel. Other option is driving thru the city. Or you can checkout hotels in the Bwi Airport area. Many have shuttle service. Another option is Trinity Reservations. I have used them before. https://trinityreservations.com Edited April 4, 2019 by Tony O Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
