Wyndham Garden's case is the address. It's on Monticello Avenue, about 0.3 road miles from the city's Cedar Grove cruise lot by our routing, with $15 self-parking, a seasonal pool and 700 Bistro for breakfast and dinner.
Most drivers leave the car at that lot anyway. It's $15 a day with a free shuttle, and they check your bags there. Wyndham's own page sells "Park Then Fly packages through Norfolk's airport" with no price; Visit Norfolk listed one night with up to seven days' parking in 2024, and we couldn't find it on the hotel's own site.
Mind the calendar — renovation work runs 7:30 to 5 every day, and the bistro skips dinner Sunday to Tuesday while it lasts.
Ask whether a Park Then Fly rate will cover a cruise. If it won't, it's a two-minute drive up Monticello to Cedar Grove in the morning.
Book it if
- Drivers who want the lowest downtown parking rate
- Dog owners
- Anyone who'd use the Cedar Grove lot anyway
Look elsewhere if
- You're sailing on a Sunday to Tuesday and want dinner in.
- You mind daytime renovation work.
- You want check-in times before you book.
