- 🏙️ Inner Harbor — stay here and you're close to the port and surrounded by waterfront dining and entertainment
- 🍺 Fells Point — livelier option for a pre-cruise night out; plenty of bars and restaurants in a historic waterfront setting
- 🚗 Terminal parking: ~$22–$25/day at South Locust Point — a park-and-cruise hotel package often beats this on sailings of 5+ nights
- 🚌 Getting around: Charm City Circulator (free) covers the Inner Harbor; rideshare to the terminal runs ~$15
- 💡 Tip: Look for hotels along Key Highway that explicitly offer cruise parking — not all Inner Harbor properties have the lot space
