The Ray Hotel Delray Beach, Curio Collection by Hilton
A walkable Delray Beach stay furthest from the runway
Airport access
How you get from this hotel to the gate.
About this hotel
The Ray Hotel Delray Beach sits about 10.4 kilometres from Boca Raton Airport, the furthest property on this list and a genuine trade of proximity for a downtown Delray Beach location. Arts Garage is a four-minute walk away, and NE 1st St at NE 2nd Ave is equally close, putting this hotel inside an actually walkable neighbourhood rather than the car-dependent business parks near the runway. Lulu's Café & Cocktails, two minutes on foot, covers dinner without a car, and the outdoor pool, bar and restaurant round out a stay built for a downtown evening rather than a fast airport turnaround. Breakfast and parking both carry separate charges, and the property is tagged pet-friendly for travellers on a longer road trip with a dog.
- Walkable downtown location
- Bar and restaurant
- Outdoor pool
- Pet-friendly rooms
Our take
The Ray Hotel trades proximity for setting: at roughly 10.4 km from Boca Raton Airport it is the furthest hotel on this list, but it puts you in walkable downtown Delray Beach, with Lulu's Café & Cocktails two minutes away, an outdoor pool, a bar and a restaurant. I would choose it for a Delray Beach meeting or a weekend; to minimise the drive from KBCT, a hotel on Congress Avenue makes more sense.
- Walk to Lulu's Café & Cocktails for dinner rather than driving, since it's two minutes from the door
- Budget over twenty minutes by car between this hotel and KBCT, the longest transfer on this list
- Explore Arts Garage on foot if the trip has any downtime, since it's four minutes away
Why we love it
- Genuinely walkable Delray Beach location
- Two-minute walk to Lulu's Café & Cocktails
- Four-minute walk to Arts Garage
- On-site bar and restaurant
Why guests love itThe Ray Hotel Delray Beach is a 4-star address rated 8.4 from more than 750 reviews, and it is the furthest option on our Boca Raton Airport list, about 10.4 km away. What families gain is a walkable downtown: Lulu's Café & Cocktails is two minutes on foot, and there is an outdoor pool, a bar and a restaurant on site. Pets are welcome too. I would book it when the trip is about Delray Beach rather than the airport.
