LynnTH Posted February 13, 2023 #1 Share Posted February 13, 2023 I have a free night certificate for Marriott. So, would like to book a Marriott hotel for our pre-cruise hotel in September. Looking for best location to walk to shops/restaurants etc. Only 2 of us. Me and my SIL. Seems there are 3 to 4 in the area. Just not familiar with the area and what the best one would be. Thanks.

KeepCalmBearOn Posted February 13, 2023 #2 Share Posted February 13, 2023 For me, the Residence Inn on Queensway (as in Queen Mary). It is a bit of a walk to Shoreline Village, but a terrific hotel with great views. https://goo.gl/maps/Xy2TCsb8QU2AdgLXA After that I'd choose the Renaissance Downtown Long Beach, then the Courtyard.

Squirreladd Posted February 15, 2023 #3 Share Posted February 15, 2023 Is that a newer hotel? I noticed there are not a lot of reviews for it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes! Thank you! That was it. Darn we are there mid week. Otherwise, this would’ve have been great for my elderly mom. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It is strictly the downtown area only, so doesn't go over to where queenmary is. it is free. kind of a free uber like service but in golf carts. check the service map for more info looks like this one is just thursday-sunday.

Wow! This is a great service. We’ll be there Tuesday/Wednesday so we’ll miss this one too. But I’ll keep the info for future trips. Thank you!
