Since Carnival doesn't really deal with the hotels, check the Internet for hotels in the Orlando and Cape Canaveral areas, but keep in mind that Port Canaveral is about a 45 minute ride from the Orlando Airport. I'm staying at the Radisson Resort at the Port in Cape Canaveral (a half mile from the port) for one night before my October Glory cruise. Got a very good deal on the Florida Hotels website. Plus, it has shuttle service to the port for guests. I've read good and bad reviews of this hotel but I take all of these posts with a grain of salt and then go with my instincts.
