Night-Before Score
The verdict

The Hampton is the plain-room answer, with a shuttle that never stops. Breakfast is hot and free, the PHL shuttle runs every 30 minutes around the clock, and Park, Stay, & Go is on its offers page — about 5 road miles from the ship by our routing.

Parking for the night is $30. Park, Stay, & Go could beat that for a week, but Hilton doesn't print this hotel's terms or say whether the cruise terminal is on the list, so it's a phone call, not a plan.

There's no restaurant, and the pool is outdoors — a summer perk, not a winter one. Dogs or cats up to 50 lb are welcome for a fee.

An odd-hour flight is where it earns its place. Ask the desk to price Park, Stay, & Go for your sailing while you're there.

Book it if

  • Flights at odd hours
  • Breakfast included on a budget
  • A dog up to 50 lb

Look elsewhere if

  • You want dinner in the building.
  • You want an indoor pool in winter.
  • You need EV charging.

Heading out
To the terminal

From the north end of Bartram Avenue our routing puts 4 Atlantic Avenue about 5 road miles away, a figure Hilton's own pages never give. By our routing the drive from Hampton Inn Airport to the terminal is about 12 minutes on empty roads — so leave room for real ones, and don’t arrive before 9:30.
