We did this as well, pretty much the same as Wido. We had a fiber connection with good latency between the locations. We installed a virtual monitor in the destination datacenter to always keep quorum then we simply moved one node at a time after setting noout. When we took a node up on the destination we had a small moving of data then the cluster was back to healthy again. We had a higher apply and commit latency until we all the nodes was on the destination side but we never noticed any performance issues that caused issues for us.

Say one is forced to move a production cluster (4 nodes) to a different datacenter. What options do I have, other than just turning it off at the old location and on on the new location?
Maybe buying some extra nodes, and move one node at a time? I did this ones. This cluster was running IPv6-only (still is) and thus I had the flexibility of new IPs.
First I temporarily moved the MONs from hardware to Virtual. MONMAP went from 3 to 5 MONs.
Then I moved the MONs one by one to the new DC and then removed the 2 additional VMs.
Then I set the 'noout' flag and moved the OSD nodes one by one. These datacenters were located very close thus each node could be moved within 20 minutes.
Wait for recovery to finish and then move the next node.
Keep in mind that there is/might be additional latency between the two datacenters.
