Reviews
The hotel is generally well-liked for its cleanliness, comfortable rooms, and friendly staff. The location is also praised for being close to restaurants, shops, and attractions. However, some guests have experienced issues with noise, parking, and breakfast variety.

Really good! But if you're on the first floor or facing the front, you'll hear all the party goers. However it's manageable and you can always take ear plugs. Staff were great, especially the girl with the red hair. Breakfast is great and has to go bags for quick snacks or breakfast. Coffee and tea is free 24/7. Ideal location for tourists and close to parks.

I enjoyed that it was in the heart of the parks and you could actually walk around the area. Good restaurants very close to the hotel. Indian food, Ethiopian, Brazilian. I think the location was great. I did not find anything wrong with the property. I have stayed before. My first time staying there was probably 10 years ago and the place has been completely remodeled.

Ideal location, not the nicest spot on the main strip. Hallways/ elevators need a little cleaning but the rooms were very clean. Very nice updated rooms. Pool is NOT heated like many other hotels which is a major inconvenience. Complimentary breakfast is always a plus.

The continental breakfast was decent too! I wish the breakfast area was better organized and there was barely any parking on property too. We had to double park one of the nights and then move it in the morning for the lack of parking which is upsetting since it’s $16 a day for parking. This was in the heart of I drive so the location was fine but busy as usual. Would choose holiday inn again but probably a different location.

No area to store luggage when this type of situation occurs. Also the aroma at the lobby was not inviting. On the other hand the location was great very walkable.

He proceeded to offer an alternative room at an outrageous price. As a result, our family’s four-day holiday weekend trip was thrown into chaos, and we were left without accommodation on a Saturday night, when no nearby hotels had availability. We were forced to drive one hour north to a hotel in a remote area that was more expensive and of lower quality than the original hotel. After the fact, we were told that the reservation had been automatically canceled because the credit card was not charged. If that were the case, we should have been notified immediately by email or through Expedia that the reservation had been canceled. Had we been informed even one day earlier, we would have had more than enough time to secure alternative accommodation. This level of service is completely unacceptable. I will never stay at Holiday Inn again, nor will I ever recommend it to anyone.

Near to Universal Studios and good breakfast. They have a shuttle to Universal Studios and Epic, but only once per day at awkward times, so I ended up not using the shuttle service. The first room we got was facing the highway and was very loud, but the staff member changed the room for us the next day. The new room was a lot better and also had a coffee machine inside the room.

Checked in and the front house staff was friendly. Went to our rooms and saw security guards all around. Got to the room and we were smacked in the face with an overwhelming smell of bleach or other strong chemical cleaner. Which was probably just the staff spraying in the room because it was filthy! There was what appeared to be mold on the wall, the chairs were completely stained , the bathroom, don’t get me started. The tub/shower was so dirty, toilet looked like it had not been cleaned in years. The beds were horrible, squeaky so uncomfortable. We checked out immediately and am still waiting for my refund. If I could give zero stars I would.

We booked two rooms for two nights, but prior to our arrival, the manager, Stephen Zuravin, agreed to a modification to one night . Yet, when we arrived, no modification had been made. The manager was contacted and again agreed to the modification. We were told modification would be made at checkout, but at checkout, no one knew anything. Since then, I have sent messages, called, been told my calls would be returned, but nope....nothing! It appears the whole thing was just a scam to keep the extra $250 that I worked very hard for. I appreciated the modification, but it turned out to be FAKE News! Very irritating.

The room (634) had toothpaste still on the counter so it’s clear it wasn’t properly cleaned. Fortunately I always bring Lysol wipes and clean things anyway and didn’t feel like . The curtains in the room were ripped and the ceiling had a giant crack in it- definitely not an upscale hotel experience.

When I arrived to check in, I asked if that was still possible, he said yes something was avaliable BUT the desk agent also told me that my room had 2 bedrooms. I asked if he was sure, he said yes. I completed checking in, get uo to the room, only 2 beds... not 2 bedrooms. I called down to the desk agent, he asked if i was sure. I advised him yes, only 2 queen beds. I proceeded back down to the front desk, and advised that i did want to upgrade to the room with 2 bedrooms separately. I was then told, he had nothing avaliable. I must say, not a great way to start my stay. Especially when I called the day before. Secondly, the coffee maker in my room didn’t work. I reported the 1st morning of my stay. Each daystopped by the front desk, reminded them. Nothing. Last Evening gentle a man came to my room. When I opened the door, He stood there with a coffee maker. He didn’t say a word.

I clearly communicated w/ the front desk before my arrival that I would check in around 10pm.However, when I arrived at the front desk, the person at the front desk totally ghosted me for 15 min, talking on the phone. If that person had another urgent issue, he should have let me know that he is handling an urgent issue and asked me to use another front desk, however, he didn't say anything - no guidance, no eye contact, no apology. Only 15 min later, I was able to check in. Also, even after I paid the parking fee, the person at the front desk did NOT give us the parking permit. Do we have to ask the parking permit even after making full payment? At this point, I am not sure if I will dare to choose Holiday Inn for my next trip

The room’s physical appearance was fine. The climate control didn’t work at all. As a result, there was a stale smell in the room. I didn’t say anything to the front desk because when I was checking in, they told someone they were completely booked and I needed a place to sleep. I slept fine, but it would have been nice to get some air moving.

They were warmer than room temperature and when I addressed this they acted ignorant

The breakfasts were wonderful with a variety to choose from and the fresh ground coffee tasted fantastic! Thank you for a lovely stay!

The staff were all very helpful and friendly. Rooms were clean. Upon arrival, we noticed toilet was not flushing properly. Called the front desk and they promptly sent a technician up to check on it. He was very helpful to diagnose and correct the problem right away.

There were many of places nearby that was walking distance. It was the worst hotel stay I've ever had in Orlando. The first room 405 my family and I stayed in had the strongest Clorox smell and other cleaning products smell, which persisted and caused my daughter's eyes to flush and her throat to itch. When I call the front desk to report the persistent Clorox odor, Gregg promises to send someone to investigate. I walked downstairs to the front desk after my family had been waiting for someone for more than 15 minutes. I had to wait 10 more minutes until he got a housekeeper who could accompany me to go upstairs to check the room. When we finally entered the room together, she replied, "Yes, that's a strong smell," and instructed Gregg to changed our room. My family even told me that while I was downstairs waiting for someone to check the room a employer entered the room and said, "That's a clean, normal smell, all the rooms have that smell." Our room was moved to 305. My family and I collected our belongings and headed to room 305, exhausted. When we entered room 305, it was hot and the thermostat wasn't working. I called the front desk and told Gregg that the AC wasn't working and that the room was hot, but nobody showed up to check the thermostat. We stay for an additional half hour to see if it gets cold. I had to return to the front desk and I told Gregg that the thermostat wasn’t working. Gregg didn't do a good job of explaining what was going to happen, so I had to wait 30 minutes for him to finish checking in customers. After that, he went with me while we waited at the elevator, left without saying anything to me, and eventually returned. We got on the elevator together to check the room. He noticed how warm the room was and examined the thermostat, which was broken when we both got there. Then he said, "Go ahead and pack, I'll put you guys in room 104.

My stay was good, however there were couples of thing I didn’t like, some guest next to my room was yelling out to their kids in the very morning around 7 AM which it wake me up… second of all breakfast is poor and full of people. Basically this is a hotel to get a rest because is very noisy. Other than that the room was good a little expensive like 250 with parking for $16 per night, which I was not informed. but it is what it is.

We booked 2 nights, 1st night was perfect. 2nd night we get to our room at 1030pm. There was loud bass and music playing under our room, we were on the 2nd floor. We called the front desk, & were told there was a wedding & that "quiet hours" didn't apply to weekends. Even though they were posted every where & no mention of weekends vs. weekdays. The front desk said they wouldn't move our room or refund us. We decided to leave and drive home early. Worst experience ever at a hotel. Hotels.com said they would get a refund, then emailed & said they wouldn't do anything. So, I guess if you are looking to sleep here, its only required guests are quiet during the weekdays.

The hotel was generally clean and well run. The free breakfast was definitely above average for this service. I took off one star for the fact I was charged a damage deposit and the parking charge (there was plenty of room in the lot.) Also, the free shuttle was never on time, moreover using it resulted in getting to the Universal parks late. From an expense and convenience standpoint, if I were to stay at this hotel again I would not drive and use a ride share company to get around.

Was very pleased with the accommodations and most of all our check-in with "Ash"! Very friendly and started our stay off wonderfully!! Give that guy a raise!! Our only problem was not having a tv channel menu in our room, since the remote was not working properly to be able to pull up a menu on the screen. The MAJOR and very disturbing issue was not being able to sleep due to the event being held in the conference room..loud music thumbing continuously vibrated our room. A call to the front desk said event would stop by 10 pm, however the noise continued past then. PS..front desk needs to be more aware of answring the phone..had to call using an outside line to finally get someone to pick up.

We stayed here for a couple of nights for a family trip to Universal. The location to the parks was great and the free breakfast was great with a lot of options and surprisingly tasty. Rooms were fine. Two negatives were smoking by a lot of the guests right at the front door and obvious homeless people using the free breakfast. One was even passed out standing up at the coffee bar. That was not great for the family.

We truly loved our experience at this hotel. Everything was very clean, from the rooms to the common areas. The breakfast was delicious, varied, and well organized —perfect to start the day before heading to the parks. The service was outstanding: the staff was always kind, helpful, and attentive, making us feel right at home from the very first moment. Without a doubt, this is an excellent place to stay in Orlando. Highly recommended!

Fair price. Rooms are extra clean and comfortable.Almost like new. Well cared for room with spotless bathroom. Nothing to gross me out. Full cable TV services (50+ channels). Embroidered labels on the pillow cases for 'soft' and 'hard' pillow options. 6 pillows per bed. Breakfast options were excellent, including fresh pancake maker, Greek yogurts, cereal bar, sausage, turkey sausage, bacon, eggs, cheese omelette, and more. Great location with excellent restaurants within walking distance. 24-hour Walgreens 2 mins by car. Stay here.

The elevators sounded like they would break down at any second. They shook with every stop and when I addressed it with the person at the front desk, they rudely asked me to look at the elevator certification on the wall. This is done yearly so it wasn’t much comfort and it wasn’t the way to respond about a customer concern. The deadbolt on our door seemed to have been repaired improperly and prevented the door from closing on its own. The pool area was nice, the beds were comfortable.

The only thing i did not like was when we checked in the clerk was more interested in placing his video buffet dinner order than take care of us. We paid him $16 cash for parking and told him not to charge our credit card. 2 days later there was a parking charge on our credit card. We called the hotel and got some excuse they were using a new system. Had to call corporate to get it resolved.

The room had a dirty bathroom and sofa bed, strongly smelling of smoke, and they supposedly claim to be 100% smoke-free. On the app, they advertise a $50 pet fee, and they charged me $75. They didn't provide enough towels for the number of guests, nor did they provide sheets for the sofa bed, whose mattress was in terrible condition and dirty. It wasn't a good experience. I won't stay here again. The hotel is very run-down.
