Brand New Hilton Garden Inn Cape Canaveral | Pre-Cruise Hotel Review

We stayed at the brand new Hilton Garden Inn Cape Canaveral the night before our cruise and put it to the test. This hotel just opened in September 2025 and is located in Cape Canaveral, just a short drive from Port Canaveral. We did a full walkthrough of the property, toured a standard king room, did a black light cleanliness test, and checked out the amenities including the tiki-themed pool area, game room, fitness center, and 24/7 market. **What we liked:** • Very convenient location for cruise passengers • Brand new, modern rooms with good space to unpack • Nice tiki-themed outdoor pool area with cabanas • Surprisingly well-stocked game room • Helpful staff at check-in **What could be better:** • Hallways were quite dark at night • Mattress was on the firmer side • Limited late checkout options for standard members We rated it **8/10** overall. It’s a solid choice if you want a newer hotel close to the cruise port, though it’s on the pricier side ($200–$300/night). Would you stay at a brand new hotel right before your cruise?
