Hotels near the New York cruise port

Ink 48 Hotel is the closest we measured to the Manhattan Cruise Terminal, an 11-minute walk. Brooklyn Motor Inn and The Lodge Red Hook are 12 and 13 minutes from the Brooklyn Cruise Terminal. Of the 43 hotels here, only Ink 48 sells a cruise package, and none runs a cruise shuttle.

Walking and driving times are OpenStreetMap routes from each hotel's address to the terminal building, without traffic. Past a 25-minute walk we give the drive instead. Shuttle, package and parking details are from each hotel's own website, read on October 30, 2026. Room rates change daily, so we don't print them: "Check prices" opens the hotel on Booking.com, which pays us a commission if you book. It doesn't change the order of this list.

Where to stay depends on your terminal. Ink 48 Hotel is the closest we measured to the Manhattan Cruise Terminal, an 11-minute walk, and Brooklyn Motor Inn the closest to the Brooklyn Cruise Terminal, 12 minutes on foot.

Check your ticket before you book. A hotel that is a short walk from one terminal is 20 minutes or more by car from the other, and the same line can use both. Oceania Vista, Seabourn Ovation, Viking Mars and Viking Polaris have each sailed from Manhattan and Brooklyn. The terminal guide covers both.

The table above has the 43 hotels we checked:

  • 19 within a 25-minute walk of the Manhattan Cruise Terminal
  • 15 for the Brooklyn Cruise Terminal, in Red Hook, Brooklyn and Lower Manhattan
  • 9 at JFK, Newark and LaGuardia

What we say about each hotel comes from its own website, as it read on October 30, 2026. The times are ours, measured on OpenStreetMap from each hotel's address to the terminal, without traffic. We list only hotels whose sites we could read. Marriott's site blocked us part way through and Hyatt's wouldn't load, so many Marriott and Hyatt hotels are missing.

Royal Caribbean and Celebrity sail from Cape Liberty in Bayonne, New Jersey. This site doesn't cover that port, and these times don't apply to it.

Which hotel is closest to the New York cruise port?

It depends on your terminal.

  • For the Manhattan Cruise Terminal, Ink 48 Hotel is an 11-minute walk. Times Square West Hotel, Hotel Five44 and the Holiday Inn Express Manhattan Midtown West, all on West 48th Street, are 12 to 13 minutes. See hotels near the Manhattan Cruise Terminal.
  • For the Brooklyn Cruise Terminal, Brooklyn Motor Inn is a 12-minute walk and The Lodge Red Hook 13. They are the only two hotels we found in Red Hook. See hotels near the Brooklyn Cruise Terminal.

Do New York hotels have a cruise shuttle?

None of these 43 hotels lists one. In Manhattan you can walk from the closest hotels or take a short taxi ride, and the Brooklyn terminal has a bus and ferry nearby.

One hotel sells a cruise package. Ink 48 Hotel has a Stay and Cruise package, which its offers page describes as "thoughtful perks crafted just for cruise travelers". The page doesn't say what those perks are, so ask before you book.

Some travel sites name New Jersey hotels with cruise packages. We couldn't confirm one. The Hilton Garden Inn and Hampton Inn in Ridgefield Park list no cruise package of their own on October 30, 2026. The Hampton's offers page shows only Hilton's general Park, Stay & Go offer, for "select airports and cruise ports" at "participating hotels".

What are destination fees at New York hotels?

Several New York hotels add a fee to the room rate, under different names. These were the published amounts on October 30, 2026:

  • 1 Hotel Brooklyn Bridge: $49 a day amenity fee, plus tax
  • Romer Hell's Kitchen: $45 urban fee
  • Hotel Edison: $42 a night facility fee, plus tax
  • Ink 48 Hotel: $40 a night amenity fee, plus tax
  • Truss Hotel Times Square: $25 destination fee, plus tax

YOTEL New York, The Belvedere Hotel and the TWA Hotel also charge one, but the pages we read don't give the amount. Add the fee in when you compare room rates.

Can I leave my car at a New York hotel during a cruise?

Not as a published offer at any of these hotels. Their parking rates are for guests staying in the hotel. Paid rates run from $22 a day at the Crowne Plaza Newark Airport to $90 for 24 hours of valet at the 1 Hotel Brooklyn Bridge, as published on October 30, 2026. Most Manhattan garages they use allow no in and out.

The terminals are the usual answer. Cruise NYC lists $45 a night at both, taxes included, a rate dated April 2023 on its pages. The parking guide explains how it works.

Free parking is rare here. On the hotels' own sites we found it at Brooklyn Motor Inn, and at Hotel Le Bleu in Park Slope, first come, first served. Neither says a car can stay while you sail, so call first.

Should I stay near the terminal or by the airport?

Choose by when you land.

  • Arriving by early evening. Stay within a walk of your terminal. Sailing day is then a walk or a short taxi ride.
  • Landing late. An airport hotel saves a late trip into the city. By car, without traffic, LaGuardia hotels are 26 to 27 minutes from either terminal, Newark hotels 27 to 31, and JFK hotels 35 to 40. See New York airport hotels for a cruise.
  • Driving in. Red Hook is the easiest. Brooklyn Motor Inn lists free parking and The Lodge Red Hook charges $25 a night plus tax on site, as of October 30, 2026, and both are a walk from the Brooklyn terminal.
  • Between the two terminals. Hotels in the Financial District are 13 minutes by car from the Brooklyn terminal and 16 to 17 from the Manhattan terminal, without traffic. The Brooklyn route uses the Battery Tunnel, which charges a toll.

How early do I need to get to the terminal?

You don't need to rush. Cruise NYC says boarding generally begins between 11:30am and 12:30pm and baggage processing starts no earlier than 9:30am. Go by the time on your cruise documents.

Can a hotel hold my bags after the cruise?

Often, yes, and you may need it. Neither terminal stores luggage. Cruise NYC says ships arrive between 7am and 8am, and that passengers who parked there are often gone by 10:30am, hours before hotel check-in.

Published luggage terms on October 30, 2026:

  • The Belvedere Hotel stores bags free before check-in and after check-out, until 11pm that day
  • Hotel Edison charges $1 a bag
  • Truss Hotel Times Square charges $2 an item, until 10pm
  • Da Vinci Hotel holds bags at no charge
  • Hotel Le Bleu stores bags for the day
  • YOTEL New York has a robot luggage store for guests, with a $3 gratuity an item if staff load it
