Topdog52 Posted July 16, 2020 #1 Share Posted July 16, 2020 (edited) how long of a walk is it through the mall from the Hilton Riverside NCL terminal? Or does anyone suggest a Hotel closer to the terminal. Edited July 16, 2020 by Topdog52 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There are a few that are a little bit closer-- I think theres a Marriott and a Hyatt that are directly across the street. But its sort of splitting hairs unless you wouldn't be up for a short walk.

jgmpuma Posted July 18, 2020 #3 Share Posted July 18, 2020 The walk from the Hilton to the terminal is through Riverwalk Marketplace, handy in case of bad weather. You will also pass Cafe du Monde, if coffee and beignets are on your agenda. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

olemissreb Posted July 27, 2020 #5 Share Posted July 27, 2020 My sister and I did this walk about 4 1/2 years ago. The only "problem" we had is that at the end, you have to go down a couple flights of stairs. There is no elevator - at least that we could find. Once you are down those stairs, the terminal is right there - at least for Carnival. Not sure if it is the same terminal for Norwegian or Royal.

cynt Posted July 28, 2020 #6 Share Posted July 28, 2020 There are elevators and escalators. I've used it a half a dozen times. They're past the food court before you get to Nordstrom's Rack. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think the NCL terminal is before the Carnival terminal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jgmpuma Posted July 30, 2020 #8 Share Posted July 30, 2020 NCL and RCL use the Julie Street terminal. An elevator takes you from Riverwalk into the terminal. Carnival uses the Erato terminal. Everything is covered except the two flights of stairs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bays Posted August 12, 2020 #9 Share Posted August 12, 2020 We always purposely book the Hilton Riverside the night before a cruise from New Orleans. It is super easy to walk through the Riverwalk than to walk on the street from a hotel, especially in weather that may or may not be ideal. We have experienced both cases. We leisurely stroll through the mall to the elevator which takes us directly down to the terminal. We can stop along the way, if desired, too.

CruisinCadie Posted August 28, 2021 #12 Share Posted August 28, 2021 Are there any good casual eateries in the vicinity of the Hilton Riverside? And I don't mean the food court at the Mall. We will be there for dinner Sunday and an early lunch Monday. (Breakfast is included in our cruise.) Thanks, Kathy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was able to book a room at the Riverside. The Hilton site shows the hotel sold out for my dates (4March to 5March) but Chase Travel Rewards had a room available. IIRC, we parked at the Hilton Whale Wall last March for our Breakaway cruise. We're doing Breakaway again this March. Question: Parking. Can I park at the Whale on the 4th even though my cruise doesn't depart until the 5th? Or, should I just use the Hilton parking and then drive to the Whale?

The absolute quickest would be building 3 on it's lowest level which is directly above the riverwalk mall. From there you'd walk right out of your room, down the hallway, down the escalator, and be in the mall. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
