Which ones are the nearest hotels

There is an Embassy Suites and a Hyatt Place off of 17th Street in Ft Lauderdale. That's about a 5 minute drive from the airport. Rates should be decent.

Hard Rock

If you take a look at the map, there's numerous hotels within a good distance in the ft. Lauderdale area. Now if you want to travel to Miami, then it'll be a good 30 mins but you'll be on the beach

There is alot of 🏨 around the fort lauderdale area .. less than 5 mins drive
