The verdict

A plain Hampton with the Hampton basics. Breakfast is free, the FLL shuttle runs from 6 AM to 11 PM, and Hilton lists long-term parking at $10 a day.

It ranks thirteenth, a tiebreak ahead of the SpringHill on that parking rate. There's no port shuttle, so plan a taxi or rideshare in the morning — and confirm the $10 rate covers the nights you're at sea, not only the night you're in the room.

Book it if

  • Drivers who want $10-a-day parking
  • Fly-in cruisers who want a simple night
  • Owners of small pets

Look elsewhere if

  • You want the ride to the ship arranged.
  • You want dinner at the hotel.
