CruisePortStay is written by a small team of travel writers who spend their working lives on hotels near cruise ports. Every guide carries the name of the person who researched it.
Each entry starts from live data — location, prices, facilities — and from what guests actually wrote about staying there. We distil that into the handful of things worth knowing before you book, rather than restating the hotel’s own description.
We are independent. No property pays to be included, and the commission we may earn if you book through a link never decides what we recommend or how we describe it. Shuttles, parking and luggage services are listed only where we could confirm them, and they are never a guarantee. Terminal assignments move — always check with the hotel and your cruise line.
Stays near the port for embarkation day, straight to your inbox. No spam — only new guides and the hotels our experts would actually book.
