Holiday Inn Express Cape Canaveral by IHG
10/10 Excellent
"This hotel was the ideal location for porting for our cruise. It’s updated and the staff was friendly. My only downfall is they have no shuttle service to and from the airport, no shuttle to take you anywhere even to the cruise ports. If they had this service it would really change things over there"
"Stayed one night in June. Had a 2nd floor 1BR suite with a small kitchen and pullout sofa. Room was very nice, pullout wasn't very comfortable but when are they? A short walk to the beach and boardwalk area which was really convenient. Breakfast was fine, hot options were appreciated (I think they alternate between eggs/meat and biscuits and gravy). "
"Several buildings, which is a little confusing, but easy beach access is amazing. Navigating check-in is tricky as there is no parking and people everywhere, but once you get to your room, the experience is fantastic. We stayed in the tower on the beach and couldn't have been happier. Great view, great beach access, decent parking, tasty breakfast. Would absolutely stay there again "
La Quinta Inn & Suites by Wyndham Cocoa Beach Oceanfront

"Love the hotel right on the beach and right next to the pier we were on the fifth floor with a balcony that overlook the ocean and the pier walkable to restaurants and shops easy to get around"
