Hotel Universal Orlando Florida
We went to the Hotel Universal for 4 days. The pool and restaurant in the hotel were great and the staff was even better. The front desk people were very helpful and the park promoters inside the lobby were able to provide us with great deals on park passes and coupons for all different types of events. There is a trolly stop right next to the hotel so you dont even have to pay for cabs to the parks. It was a perfect hotel for us... The only negitives I can come up with sre if your looking for an outdoor tiki bar its only open certain months of the year and unless your ok with spending $25 on two not so great sandwiches do not eat at the deli inside, its the only place in the hotel that will rip you off. Other than that it couldnt have been a better stay.

Short drive from hotel
Find out about the trolly, its $1.25 a ride and there are lots of stops along the way, it takes you to all of the parks, a cab costs abou $20 each way to the parks... and there are two stops next each side of the hotel... Its perfect!

Always a great stay
We love staying at this hotel. This was our 4th time since March 2009 and once again, we had a great stay. The staff is always very friendly and caring. The rooms are in pretty good shape. It's not a brand new hotel so there is a little wear and tear in the rooms...usually the bathroom but nothing to ruin our stay. The location is perfect if you are looking to visit Universal or City Walk as well as shopping and other local attractions. Very easy area to navigate. The restaurant in the hotel serves great food too (always a plus). Last but not least, the price is ALWAYS resonable. Great deals. We will continue to stay at this hotel whenever we visit the area.

Not Applicable
Take a cab to enjoy the nightlife at City Walk. The hotel staff will call a cab for you and since its such a short drive the metered cab fees end up being around $5.50 and the set-fee cabs are usually $5 per person. And it's very easy to catch a cab on the way home.

Just for the nite
I only needed to stay 1 night, but I wish I could have stayed longer. The room was clean, the bed was like sleeping on a cloud!! After we checked in we went up to our room & heard a very large dog barking. I called down to the front desk to voice my concern about the dog barking all night. They quickly sent security to the room to check on the dog & have the owners keep the dog quiet. As we were leaving to get dinner, we stopped at the desk & asked about the dog. They said that if there is any further problems with the dog barking that those guests would have to leave the hotel. It turned out to be a very quiet night. Thank you Best Western!!!

What an awesome stay
The hotel was close to Universal, a water park across the street, tons of restuarants nearby, we went to 4 theme parks in 5 days, had a blast, we didnt even use a full tank of gas. The hotel staff were awesome. The room was great and the hot tub was incredible after a day of walking all over the place. The room service food was ok could be better, the price was right.
