Following our previous booking with Expedia and the hassle and disappointment, i am pleased to say that our direct booking with the hotel has been a great success and we are all delighted with the accommodation and above and beyond the friendliness of the staff. More

We stayed in Orlando for 5 nights to go to theme parks and this was a great place to stay because it was an easy 10 minute walk from Wet N Wild and there was a steak house nearby as well as a Walgreens, iHOP and Red Lobster. Our room was a 1 bedroom suite with 2 comfortable queen beds.... More

This was the third hotel that my boyfriend and I stayed at on our 5 day trip to Florida. We were here for two nights- February 5th and 6th. We chose this hotel based on the distance to Universal Studios. When we first arrived, we were there much earlier than the check-in time of 3pm. They had a room for... More

Our family of 5 (2A/3 teens) stayed here while visiting the Universal parks and it was ideal. We caught the comp shuttle everyday. The times suited us as we stayed in the parks all day. The hotel was clean and very comfortable. The breakfast was fine. We stayed clear of the scrambled eggs as we had discovered that we felt... More

I took my teen and preteen daughters to Universal the weekend of January 20. We initially were going to stay at a resort but had to change plans at the last minute. I have had great experiences with Homewood Suites in the past and thought i would give the Orlando location a try. I must say, the staff was outstanding!... More

I think that this hotel has its advantages being located so close to Universal. It is conveniently located on I-Drive and has many amenities available, such as restaurants, convenience stores/drug stores, and local shopping. In my experience, the majority of the front desk staff seemed friendly and willing to accommodate most needs, just one female desk clerk did not smile... More

Stayed 2 nights in early January 2012 while visiting Orlando and especially Universal Studios Florida. Upon arrival and check-in, we asked for a quiet room (not Highway side) and we've had a king room (203) but it wasn't on high floor as requested on booking and not with a particular view (should have been a pool view). The size of... More

The facility was approximately 90% full during our stay. I must say that our room was quieter than expected for the number of guests on site. The food was at best average and there were way more guests that the two employees on food duty were able to accomodate. They did work, but it was all they could do to... More
