Hotels in Universal Studio Orlando / Sea World, Orlando

Stayed here again and really like the top floor of this hotel. We booked 6 months in advance direct with the hotel for 15 nights and got a long term room rate. we have stayed before as i said so no surprises expected. Day of arrival: Arrived late and expected top floor with city view King Bed. (Which we booked and paid for). We would have liked park view but we where turned down a few times by phone before we arrived. We where told once we gave the name that we had a hi room not top floor as they where ”first come first served”. i said we had booked a top floor king room to which the lady behind the counter said there was a ”first come first served” policy again! My wife was not happy as we had booked and paid for this direct and had an email to prove the fact and was about to lose all reason, Then a lady called Jess stepped in to sort the situation out. Jess did a bit of running around the building and came back with the room we requested, if management are reading this Jess sorted this out very quickly and very professionally give the Lady a raise. The room 2110 had great views of some of the parks in the distance, disney / epcot / volcano bay, fire works every night at 10pm. Also a great place to watch the evening storms come in. Fridge and microwave, water comp, tea and coffee faculties also. Very clean, i credit this to our room service Lady Cathrine who was very attentive to our needs over the two weeks. Again this lady deserves a raise. The pool bar Its fine, they dont bother pouring your drink if you buy for instance a coors light, it comes in a can and unless you as for it you usually dont get a plastic cup with it. (Strange) no table service in the pool area. there food consists of Pizza (no bad to be fair) nachos, turkey sub etc, staff seem more interested in watching the NFL on the 3 screens than attending customers, not a great place to relax after a long day in the parks. needs a little push. Very clean area. Small bug bears: One chair in the room and one office chair, if you want to relax in the room you have to use these two seats, i did ask the front desk early on for a second chair for the room but they said there is only one chair per room. funny like i said we have stayed here previously and the rooms did come with two chairs and a coffee table. the man behind reception said he would look into getting another one but never bothered to come back to us. some of the staff behind the reception are pure cannon fodder and some do excel at the job they have been given. The area Universal has opened up there two hotels across the road which is a welcome sight after they shut down wet and wild a few years ago. The area between kirkman and the Mcdonalds further down the road has really suffered with covid, lot of places shut down and others wanting for staff. the usual food and shops available locally, Red lobster, KFC, applebees, dennys, subway, and other junk food out lets to destroy your digestive sys

It's close to two outlets (walking distance). There are some restaurants nearby. I tried Texas de Brazil at night. It's good. The hotel is new and clean. It's equipped with a kitchenette. Induction cooker, cutlery, mixing bowls, microwave oven, etc., those basic cooking tools are present. You can do some basic cooking there. I enjoyed my stay.

Normally stay elsewhere when visiting but got a good deal on a 2 bedroom suite here. Hotel large and busy but had a really pleasant atmosphere. Food court useful and not over priced. Handy having a Starbucks for a quick coffee again not over priced. Suite was very clean and serviced every day. Microwave, large fridge and coffee maker a nice touch and seating area useful. Beds were super comfy however I would say a UK double size so not huge. 2 x TV one in the bedroom and 1 in the main 2 bed area. Lots of free movies if you need a night in. Buses to Universal and Volcano Bay ran regularly and when the rain came ran more frequent from Volcano Bay. Honestly could not fault anything and would definitely stay again and definitely recommend

This hotel is very clean and tidy rooms are spacious with lots of data and phone outlets and a great price All the staff are very welcoming and friendly and check in was quick and easy It’s at the top end of International Drive near to Universal Studios, there is an Applebys directly opposite and a few other shops and restaurants nearby It’s a quick trolley bus ride or 15 minute walk to the main area at Icon Park with lots more bars and restaurants We stayed one night prior to moving to Royal Pacific and this hotel was ideal for us

• We wanted a hotel that would suffice for a one night stay before heading to the airport after our universal Orlando vacation. They do have a shuttle to universal studios, but I did not inquire about the times because we would not be using it. This is because we stayed at the royal pacific to get the express passes, which are good for the duration of your stay as well as your check in and check out date. Since the royal pacific hotel is on the pricy side, on our last day we checked out of the royal pacific and checked into this Fairfield Marriott to save some money on our last night and since it is very close to universal studios. The front desk employee was extremely friendly and helpful. The only weird thing to me is that when they go to charge the deposit, for some reason it alerts your credit card as a fraud charge and you have to respond to the text message that it is not a fraud in order for the deposit to get charged. She says this happens “every time”. I think it’s a little weird that whatever way they use to charge deposits triggers a fraud alert on everyone’s credit card “every time”. I am a marriot bonvoy member and I have never experienced this before at any other hotels. Nevertheless, the charges went through correctly, and I was charged the right amount at the end of the stay. We reserved two rooms and we were put next to each other which was nice (although not connecting rooms, which is fine because we didn’t really need it or request it). The rooms are very spacious, tons of room everywhere. You can tell the hotel has had its fair share of wear and tear, but it didn’t feel low quality. They have breakfast in the lobby in the morning. It is mostly a continental breakfast with the exception of premade omelets. So if you don’t like omelets, your choices are limited. However if you do like omelets you are in luck because the omelets were really good. There are other things like muffins, bagels, bread/toast, fruit, yogurt, and cereal. Be sure to get the passion orange guava juice from the machine because it’s so good. Because it was so good it ran out during breakfast and it took quite a while for it to be refilled. It was an adequate breakfast before we had to head to the airport. Overall I would recommend this hotel as you get a pretty good bang for your buck here with spacious rooms, included breakfast, friendly employees, and proximity to universal studios.

The hotel location is very recomended for you who want to go universal studio or go to the premium outlet. Dont forget you have to booked a bus to go the universal studio the day before, inside a hotel there is outlet for you to booked the bus. If you want to rent a car there also a rent car outlet inside the hotel. I go to premium outlet , walk to 10 min only. If using uber it cost you about CAD 9. I just dont like the room hotel floor all using carpet. Thanks

Elijah excellent take care of service and family. Very good bar an food service and options for order are variable for all people order and wanted. I request to put in TV the baseball game and Elijah complete my request. Excellent

I had the pleasure of meeting a great host today. He checked me in with a smile and told me to grab breakfast while I waited for the room. He also made sure when we had a problem with the room that everything was made better. I appreciate people that go above and beyond for their guests. We felt at home here. I would recommend this hotel to family and friends. Great location and caring staff. Everyone says hello and are ready to help. Putting a view from the room in review.

We stayed at this hotel before 2 days at Universal. Check in was fast and our room was very nice with 2 queen beds and a sofa bed. The pool looked pretty small and cozy, but we were not able to use it due to rain. The room was comfortable with decent amenities. The only negative was the shower lacked decent water pressure. The breakfast was one of the best free breakfasts I have had in a long time. Plenty of options and quick things to grab on your way to parks. Overall I would recommend this hotel if looking for something close to universal with plenty of space in rooms to spread out.

advantage: Free parking. Staff greeted warmly and coffee was served in the room. (but the coffee machine needs cleaning) It is very convenient to have ice cube machines on each floor. There are multiple washing machines and dryers in the laundry room, each for three dollars. It's six dollars to wash and dry. Great location, close to everywhere. There are too few shuttle buses to the park, and UBER to the park is about ten dollars. shortcoming: The room is not big and the carpet is stained. During this trip, I stayed in several hotels for 30 days. Generally speaking, the cleanliness of hotels above three stars in the United States is much worse than that in Asia. We stayed for 3 nights and although we couldn't see any insects, my husband and I both had multiple red bumps (like insect bites). Although it claims to have a connection to the park, there are only one or two departures a day. UBER is recommended.
