After staying at 50+ hotels in Orlando, these are the 10 I swear by — and some cost less than $100 a night
By now, I’ve been to the famous Florida city hundreds of times and stayed at more than 50 hotels in the area, ranging from budget-friendly picks to luxurious splurges.
I’ve stayed at Disney World’s Swan and Dolphin and Swan Reserve many times.
Many of the rooms have excellent views of the neighboring theme parks. Plus, it’s walking distance to my two favorites, Epcot and Hollywood Studios.
Since it’s both a Disney and Marriott hotel, a stay here gets me early access to Disney parks and earns me Marriott Bonvoy points.
A stay at the Four Seasons Orlando screams luxury.
Four Seasons’ high-end feel and standout hospitality keep bringing me back to the hotel chain.
Its Orlando location has an added touch of Disney magic, from views of Magic Kingdom from the property to an incredible character breakfast (with a fairly relaxed vibe).
I love its many outdoor amenities, including a lazy river through winding palm-tree pathways and an adults-only Oasis pool.
Between the amazing dining at its Michelin-star rooftop restaurant and Ravello — which serves the best Italian — I rarely leave the property during my stay.
Jika saya memilih untuk pergi, saya dapat memesan kereta motor mewah hotel ke Magic Kingdom.
Evermore Orlando feels like a slice of paradise.
The property is a few minutes from several famous theme parks, but it’s easy for me to forget I’m in Orlando when I stay at this paradise of a resort.
With accommodations as large as an 11-bedroom luxury flat, the Evermore is also a great place for traveling with a group.
There are so many dreamy villas at the Villatel Orlando.
Berjarak kurang dari 10 menit berkendara dari Universal, Villatel Orlando memiliki vila-vila luas untuk disewa yang menggabungkan kenyamanan rumah dengan nuansa dan fasilitas hotel.
Each villa has a full kitchen and several bedrooms (the smallest has four), and larger ones include features like a private pool, arcade, theater, and themed rooms with slides.
I can often save money when I stay at a villa on this property because I can cook in a full kitchen instead of dining out for all of my meals.
Wyndham Lake Buena Vista is probably my favorite budget pick in the Orlando area.
It has the bells and whistles of a Disney resort, with complimentary theme-park shuttles and Mickey waffles, but for a more affordable rate.
I’ve often scored clean, updated rooms at the Wyndham Lake Buena Vista for under $100 a night. I also appreciate that the hotel is just steps from Disney Springs, which has a nice variety of shopping and dining options.
Universal’s Endless Summer Resort is also a great budget-friendly option.
I’ve been able to book the hotel for rates under $100 a night, even on holidays and popular times, including Christmas and Memorial Day weekend.
Despite the low price, this property still offers a full, nice resort experience with its spacious rooms and on-site restaurants, bars, and coffee shop.
Plus, Endless Summer offers complimentary shuttles to the nearby Universal parks.
The Grand Floridian is my favorite hotel on Disney property.
The property’s waterfront restaurant, Narcoosee’s, also has great views of the park’s fireworks.
Definitely visit the Grand Floridian during the winter holidays — the resort goes all out with its holiday decor, which includes a life-size gingerbread house.
Disney’s Animal Kingdom Lodge is another top pick for me.
My favorite rooms are the ones overlooking the savannah, which is home to hundreds of animals, including giraffes.
Loews Sapphire Falls Resort is a Universal property that I love.
Saya menyukai suasana tropis kelas atas di hotel resmi Universal Orlando ini, yang memiliki kolam renang besar dan pantai berpasir. Seluruh resor memiliki nuansa modern dan ramah.
Ketika saya mengunjungi taman selama saya tinggal, saya memanfaatkan taksi air gratis resor ke dan dari Universal Citywalk. Nyaman, dan perjalanannya dilengkapi dengan pemandangan yang indah.
Hard Rock Hotel at Universal Orlando has great happy-hour deals and a beautiful pool.
It’s complete with sandy beaches, palm trees, and energetic music — and the pool even has underwater speakers. Plus, I love the slide.
I’ve also found the hotel has some of the best happy hour deals in the city at its restaurant, The Palm.
Terakhir, resor ini adalah pilihan tepat jika saya berencana mengunjungi taman Universal. Mereka dapat dicapai dengan berjalan kaki singkat dari hotel, dan menginap di Hard Rock Hotel ini sudah termasuk tiket masuk antrean.
