Embark Day

Hotels near the New York cruise terminals

For the Manhattan terminal, the easiest choice is a hotel in Hell's Kitchen between 10th and 12th Avenues: Ink 48, the Holiday Inn Express on West 48th Street and the Fairfield Inn on West 58th are all within about half a mile, so you can walk to Pier 88 with your bags. None runs a cruise shuttle, and parking costs $48 to $80 a day.

Brooklyn's terminal is harder: the Lodge Red Hook is the only hotel within walking distance. Otherwise stay in Lower Manhattan or Brooklyn and take a cab, or catch the free NYC Ferry shuttle from Wall Street on busy days.
