The port-listed lots

From $24.95 a day

The port has no long-term parking at the terminals, and passengers can’t park on the pier. It lists nearby operators instead. San Diego’s Park, Shuttle & Fly, 2.8 miles away on Pacific Highway, charges $24.95 a day with a free shuttle to the terminals around the clock; its coupon isn’t valid for cruisers. Aladdin, 1.4 miles away on Kettner Boulevard, runs a free cruise shuttle too.

FAQ

Hampton Liberty Station FAQ

Does Hampton Liberty Station have a cruise shuttle?

Not that it publishes. Hilton lists no cruise shuttle.

Does Hampton Liberty Station have an airport shuttle?

Yes, from SAN. A complimentary airport shuttle, 5 AM to 10:30 PM; call the hotel, per Hilton.

Can I park at Hampton Liberty Station while I cruise?

The hotel doesn't say. Hilton's offers page lists only Park & Stay, which covers parking each night of your stay, not while you're away. Self-parking is $25 a day.

How far is Hampton Liberty Station from the cruise terminal?

Hilton gives no distance to the cruise terminal. It puts the USS Midway 3.2 miles away and the Convention Center 4. It sits in our harbor island, point loma & old town band. Royal Caribbean, Holland America and Norwegian name the B Street Pier, and Disney gives the same address, 1140 North Harbor Drive. The port's second terminal, the Port Pavilion on Broadway Pier, is at 1000 North Harbor Drive; your cruise documents name yours.

Can I check in early or check out late on cruise days?

Check-in is 3:00 PM and check-out 12:00 PM. The hotel doesn't publish early or late terms, so ask when you book, not on the day.

Will the hotel hold my bags?

The hotel doesn't say. Most hotels will hold bags between check-out and a late shuttle, but that's a call to make, not an assumption.

Does the port shuttle come back for me after the cruise?

There's no hotel shuttle to the port. From the pier it's a taxi, a rideshare from Harbor Drive outside the terminal gate, or the 992 bus from Santa Fe Depot. No line publishes a San Diego transfer price.

What's the breakfast timing on sail morning?

Free hot breakfast. Your terminal check-in window is in your cruise documents, and the port asks you not to arrive before it.

Can I park an oversized vehicle or charge an EV?

EV charging: on site, per the hotel. Clearance and oversized parking aren't published. Park, Shuttle & Fly takes no RVs or oversized vehicles, and the BRIC garages Ace sells on the Embarcadero have a 7-foot limit. The port says ABM's Harbor Island lot, 2.5 miles out, takes oversized vehicles.
