8 luxury hotels in Fort Lauderdale – and how to choose

W Fort Lauderdale · Birch Ocean FrontAt all eight the suitespot benefits apply from the first night.
And then there is a benefit that belongs very precisely to this city.
Our travel advisors’ insider tip
Fort Lauderdale is Port Everglades – one of the largest cruise ports in the world. A great many guests are therefore here for exactly one night: the night before sailing or the one after docking.
For precisely that, there is a benefit of its own – a credit for the transfer between hotel and cruise port.
In Fort Lauderdale, two hotels offer it:
• the Pier Sixty-Six – 25 US dollars
• The Ritz-Carlton Fort Lauderdale – 40 US dollars
Both apply explicitly to a stay before or after a cruise, and both to a one-way trip.
Where else it exists explains the benefit better than any description: in Miami, Istanbul, Cape Town, Lima and Lisbon. All of these places sit at a cruise port. This is not a curiosity but a benefit that exists only where it is needed.
What that means in practice: if your trip hangs on a ship, this is a solid criterion – 25 or 40 dollars is roughly the ride itself. And it tells you something about the hotel: these two are set up for cruise guests, know the departure times and understand what a seven-in-the-morning check-out means.
Our advice: tell us whether you are coming before or after a cruise – and if so, which terminal your ship uses. The recommendation looks different from a beach holiday after that.
Where to stay in Fort Lauderdale: beach, marina or port
The best hotels in Fort Lauderdale stand almost all on the same beach strip.
Omni Fort Lauderdale · Port EvergladesOn North Fort Lauderdale Beach Boulevard, right at the water, sit four: The Westin Fort Lauderdale Beach Resort at 189 €, the W Fort Lauderdale at 217 €, the Conrad Fort Lauderdale Beach at 221 € and The Ritz-Carlton Fort Lauderdale at 328 €. Our recommendation for anyone who wants the sand first thing.
At the port and the marina follow the Pier Sixty-Six at 268 € on SE 17th Street, the Omni Fort Lauderdale at 293 € in Port Everglades itself and the Fort Lauderdale Marriott Harbor Beach Resort at 273 € at Harbor Beach.
The most affordable entry is The Dalmar Fort Lauderdale at 181 € – the only one not on the water but in Flagler Village, the quarter north of downtown with galleries and breweries.
What the categories reveal: 104 name the ocean, and in 21 of them it says outright that the view is only partial. 20 name the coast, 17 the Intracoastal Waterway – the channel running parallel to the sea through the city that earned it the nickname „Venice of America“ – and eight the marina. In one category it says the view is restricted; we would rather tell you that in advance too.
Our travel advisors know from which hotel you reach the terminal in ten minutes.
266 categories: the best hotels in Fort Lauderdale from the inside
Together the best hotels in Fort Lauderdale offer 266 room categories – a great many for eight hotels.
The Westin Fort Lauderdale Beach Resort · Birch Ocean FrontThe Conrad Fort Lauderdale Beach gives the floor area for every one of its 16 categories.
The largest units sit almost all at the Conrad Fort Lauderdale Beach: two 3 Bedroom Residences at around 158 square metres each, a Poolside at 121 and two 2 Bedroom Residences at 111 and 110. At the Omni Fort Lauderdale follows a category at exactly 105.
A note: nearly all of these figures are converted from square feet, which is why they look odd. We round them for you.
For all other categories our travel advisors obtain the measurements before you book. Tell us how many bedrooms you need while you are at it; for the residences that gets there faster.
What a night at a luxury hotel in Fort Lauderdale costs
A night at a 5-star hotel in Fort Lauderdale costs between 181 € and 328 €, on average 245 €.
| Luxury hotel | From | suitespot benefits from |
|---|---|---|
| The Dalmar Fort Lauderdale | 181 € | 1st night |
| The Westin Fort Lauderdale Beach Resort | 189 € | 1st night |
| W Fort Lauderdale | 217 € | 1st night |
| Conrad Fort Lauderdale Beach | 221 € | 1st night |
| Pier Sixty-Six | 268 € | 1st night |
| Fort Lauderdale Marriott Harbor Beach Resort | 273 € | 1st night |
| Omni Fort Lauderdale | 293 € | 1st night |
| The Ritz-Carlton Fort Lauderdale | 328 € | 1st night |
At all eight hotels the benefits apply from the first night – and in a port city where many guests stay exactly one night, that is worth more than elsewhere.
When it is at its best: from December to April. Dry, warm, and the season when most ships sail. Our recommendation.
From June to November it is hurricane season, September above all. It is hot and humid then – but rates are markedly lower, the water is warmest, and the beaches belong to the locals again.
And whatever the date: you get the suitespot benefits in the quietest week of the year exactly as in the busiest.
Breakfast, hotel credit and exclusive services at a 5-star hotel
In Fort Lauderdale three benefits come with all 8 hotels: breakfast – in whatever form –, the early check-in or late check-out and the upgrade.
Personal luxury travel adviceOur travel advisors personally accompany your booking – 365 days a year, from the first offer to late check-out. Reach the suitespot VIP service via email or WhatsApp.Phone: +49 30 81452346 · hotel@suitespot.comThen follow a hotel credit at seven, points or status benefits at six and a welcome gift at four.
On breakfast the detail is worth reading. Four hotels serve it, three give a credit – 25 US dollars at the W Fort Lauderdale (at El Vez), 30 at the Conrad Fort Lauderdale Beach (at Takato) and 45 at The Ritz-Carlton Fort Lauderdale. And The Dalmar Fort Lauderdale serves a continental breakfast in the lobby bar – that is less than a full one, and we say so.
And then it gets specific.
• As described above, the Pier Sixty-Six and The Ritz-Carlton Fort Lauderdale carry a credit for the transfer to the cruise port.
• The Ritz-Carlton Fort Lauderdale adds 100 US dollars of hotel credit – explicitly excluding alcohol.
• The Pier Sixty-Six lets you choose between restaurant and spa.
And the loyalty side: five of the eight hotels belong to Marriott Bonvoy, one to Hilton Honors. Two belong to no programme.
If you hold a Bonvoy number, Fort Lauderdale is a good place for it. Give it to us.
