SpringHill Suites is the closest of the west Mobile hotels by our routing. Breakfast is a free hot buffet, the 95 suites each have a sofa bed, there's an outdoor pool and free parking — about 6.4 road miles from the terminal, 13 minutes with no traffic.
Visit Mobile lists a Park & Cruise offer here in which the hotel "will pick up the tab" for one car at the cruise terminal for the whole cruise. Marriott's page doesn't mention it, so it doesn't score.
It's a good deal if it's real, so get it confirmed in writing. No pets, and you must be 21.
Ask for the Park & Cruise offer when you call, and get it in your confirmation.
Book it if
- A family that needs the sofa bed
- Breakfast before a midday check-in
- Drivers who'd rather park at the terminal
Look elsewhere if
- You're under 21.
- You want a restaurant.
- You bring a pet.
