doliver Posted December 30, 2004 #1 Share Posted December 30, 2004 Does anyone know exactly how far this hotel is from the Princess Pier? Is it walking distance while toting your luggage? Thanks in advance! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PhilipNTx Posted December 30, 2004 #2 Share Posted December 30, 2004 Yes it is close enough. We walked our luggage there and back. It's approximately a block. Philip Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blackrobe Posted December 30, 2004 #3 Share Posted December 30, 2004 The real answer is - it depends. There are two docking spaces. The closest one is walkable depending upon how much luggage you are toting and how mobile you are with the luggage. The other docking space is twice as far and is not walkable with luggage. We embarked at the farthest dock and disembarked at the closer dock. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
doliver Posted December 30, 2004 Author #4 Share Posted December 30, 2004 I was sort of hoping to get a definitive answer, but as with most issues on these boards..."it all depends". Does anybody else have an opinion? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
aggieastrosfan Posted December 30, 2004 #5 Share Posted December 30, 2004 I was sort of hoping to get a definitive answer, but as with most issues on these boards..."it all depends". Does anybody else have an opinion? With the way the schedule works at Galveston, it really does depend. Because the Ecstasy is in Galveston on alternating Saturdays, the Grand will almost always depart from one terminal, and return to the other. Terminal 1 (the Carnival terminal that the Ecstasy will always use) is within walking distance, terminal 2 really isn't. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ranger Posted December 30, 2004 #6 Share Posted December 30, 2004 I say it's walkable. When we stayed at Harbour House, I drove my wife and the luggage to the pier (it was raining on that day), then went and parked at Harbour House. My son and I walked back from Harbour House to Pier 2 with the carry on items. On the return, we walked back to Harbour House got the truck and picked up my wife and luggage at the pier. This way I was always driving in the opposite direction of everyone else. It's probably 1/2 mile from Harbour House to Pier 2 and a lot closer to Pier 1.
