My wife and I are planning our first cruise next summer and will probably be going on the Carnival Glory. It leaves from Port Canaveral. We will be driving down the day before departure. I heard there is a hotel in the area that provides a shuttle to and from the port as well as free car parking for the week. Has anyone heard of this hotel or have any experiences with them?

Hi Buckeyefrank, welcome to Cruise-Chat. You might want to try the Radisson or maybe the Holiday Inn in Cocoa Beach. I'm pretty sure the Radisson offers shuttles, but not postive about the Holiday Inn. Congratulations on your first cruise! Best wishes, and once again, welcome aboard!

Country Inn & Suites is the closest hotel to Port Canaveral. They have a cruise and park package.

We used Radisson. Nice place, nice rooms and a great free form pool. Waterfalls etc...
