Thread: San Diego Hotel location

We are sailing on the Oosterdam in January. We are staying at the residence near the pier. Is it in walking distance of the boarding area or do I need to plan on a cab. We will have three bags.

Either way I would grab a cab if the hotel doesn't have a shuttle!! Lots of traffic going into port in the morning!!! Welcome to CLF!! See you have a lot of cruising experience!! Hope you will be able to share them with us, we have a lot of newbies that would appreciate it, as well as our more experienced members!! Enjoy our forum!!!

I'd guess it's about a 1/4 mile to a 1/2 mile or so.

Here's a link to the property:

It's a pleasant walk without bags. The only hotel I would walk from to the pier is the Holiday Inn. Everything else............either take a shuttle or cab, unless you don't mind luggin the luggage!!

Definitely take cab if the hotel doesn't have a shuttle.

You mentioned 3 suitcases -- possibly you will have carry-ons as well -- too much to try and haul even for a short distance.

The website says that they do have a shuttle.

I would say that it depends on how you feel about moving you luggage about 1/4 mile. Ours are all on wheels and have straps on the handles. I can hook them all together in a train and pulls them easily. It would be a level walk along the waterfront.

John saids the hotel has a shuttle -- as soon as you get there -- sign up for the shuttle.

Thanks so much for the reply. i will gladly answer any questions I can. Cruising is a great experience that I would love to see enjoyed by all.

I called the hotel and they have a free shuttle. thanks for the help.

Johnmac ..hope you stay and post more with us. We have lots of questions as well as answers.
