Hotel Recommendation Please

[atdahop]

Can anyone recommend a hotel in the San Pedro, Long Beach area that is reasonable with comfy beds? Has anyone had any success with Priceline or Hotwire?

 

Thanks,

Carole

I've stayed at both the Vagabond Inn and the Holiday Inn on Gaffey St. in San Pedro. Both place were clean and comfy and reasonably priced.

We stayed at the Crowne Plaza last Nov and got it for about $65 on Priceline. Check out biddingfortravel.com for some help and to see the hotels that people have gotten.

I have always found the hotel itself and the beds also to be very comfortable at the Doubltree. We have stayed there each time we have sailed from SP

I also stay at the Crowne Plaza,

I stayed here several times and love the location. From my hotel window I saw the Mariner docked.

They have a free shuttle to the ship and pick you up after the cruise.

The hotel is beautiful and very clean.

If people drive, as I did, they have a Park and Cruise package available where your car is in their underground garage for up to 15 days for one price.

Walk 1 block down and you are on the piers with lots of shops and restaurants.

EDIT: I believe this is the closest hotel to the ship. ;)

There are reports $65 may get you the Double Tree Hotel. When we checked in after a cruise, they were checking to see if we needed a van to the ship, so it seems they like to cater to outgoing cruise passengers as well. I saw many arriving for the departure the next day.

 

Enjoy your visit and cruise!!!

When we left from Long Beach, we stayed on the Queen Mary. Wasn't cheap but we really enjoyed the history and going from the old ship to the new ship.

We were very pleased with our Priceline win of the Doubletree. I think it was $70 but it was Thanksgiving week. Be sure to sign up for the shuttle to the cruise board as soon as you arrive as it books fast. The shuttle will also take you to downtown San Pedro for shopping etc. We had a great b'fast at the Egg & Waffle and then went to the grocery store next door for limes, tonic and pepsi to carry on the ship. When we finished shopping, called the shuttle and five minutes later they were there to pick us up. For more info, you can check out my NCL Star Review. Have a great trip.

and Doubletree

Both are the only best two hotels in San Pedro for cruisers.

(Any other hotel is definitely a step down in quality)...
