This hotel is close to the Queen Mary if you don’t want to stay on the ship. We don’t have a room block here, but please check in on September 12th to have enough time before the wedding. Check-in for all surrounding hotels is at 4:00 PM as well, so arriving on September 13th will not give you enough time to get to the ceremony by 4:30 PM at the Capstan Deck.

LGB is served by major airlines like Delta and Southwest, offering nonstop flights from various cities.

We recommend planning your travel with some extra time to account for potential traffic, especially during peak hours.
