Close to Aquatica Water Park The old dog park on our side of the building isn’t kept up anymore since they put in a new one on the opposite side of the building from where we were staying. We travel with our pup. The hot tubs are never hot. One is a little warmer than the other which was not much different in temp from the swimming pool.

Our showered was a small stream. I called the front desk, they replaced the shower head by that night. The room was not properly cleaned, and the floor felt gross / sticky (both tile & carpet). The pool was nice, staff friendly, but we did encounter a drunk that was passed out in a chair right as you go back into the hotel from the pool. This same person was seen arguing with (his girlfriend or wife) by the pool a couple of hours earlier. This made me feel uncomfortable and not safe, especially since this was all during the day. Dennys is where you food, I mean its Dennys you can't expect much. We won't go back.

À notre arrivée le restaurant de l’hôtel fermait ses portes or petit déjeuner improvisé dans une salle sans rôtis , j’ai réservé 3 chambres les 3 avaient une odeur des vieux tapis qui sentait l’humidité la climatisation d’une des chambres coulait il y avait une flaque d’eau sous le tapis je me suis fait changer de chambre et elle sentait plus fort que l’autre. Presque pas d’eau chaude et j’en passe. À éviter le plus possible bien trop dispendieux pour cette hôtel pas évident pour le personnel qui font ce qu’il peuvent avec le sourire

The staff "upgraded" us to a room by the pool when we checked in. The only issue was the room did not have privacy curtains. Everyone from the pool could see into our room. At night, the pool security lights lit up the room like daytime. The staff was nice enough to give us another room after we had already checked in earlier in the day.

We did not use any extra hotel services or make additional purchases during our stay. This situation caused unnecessary stress and wasted our time trying to resolve billing errors. Be very careful and monitor your credit card transactions closely if you stay here.

This hotel was affordable, clean, and well maintained. The staff were amazing! It was close to the Theme Parks and Disney Springs. I liked how there were a few food options and stores in walking distance. Overall 10/10 experience staying here. They had amenities for the kids which was perfect! We really enjoyed our stay here.

Fun for the kiddo but it wouldn’t be my first choice of places to stay again. When we arrived to the room it had that musty smell and many hairs on the bathroom floor of which I promptly called for housekeeping to take care of and they said they would but they didn’t. Bed was comfortable, the amenities such as arcade and those type things were great but overall the property needs a little TLC.

I loved the idea of this hotel with the Applebees and the pool with poolside bar.. But the room had the worst view, a broken toliet that kept acting like it wanted to overflow and a shower dripping all night. The pool was great, one of the hot tubs had low water in it, making it spit all over. The bartenders were great but failed to mention that they add their own tips to the bill. I over tipped being nice and then saw at checkout at 2am, double charges of tips. Shame on the hotel for allowing that. My $15 tip ended up being $25 with the automatic tip that was added. I couldn't talk to the bar at 2am to fix it. Throw on the $30 a night resort fee I wasn't aware of per day.. I wasn't there for disneyland but business. Oh and their listing says the have "car service"... they don't.
- 4/5
We had a balcony room, which is nice. The air conditioner leaked, so there was water on the carpet and outside on the balcony. My husband let them know at checkout and they apologized. It wasn't a major thing for us, but you should be aware. The pool and hot tub were very clean and the deck is cleaned daily. However, they were trimming the palm trees, which was a bit loud. Sometimes we forget to check in advance to see if they're doing any maintenance, which is a good idea for any hotel you're booking. The Tiki Bar by the pool is a nice touch, and they passed out free samples of non-alcoholic frozen drinks one afternoon. Applebees is on the property and the food and service was great. Overall, it is a nice resort and good value.

The stay was wonderful until right before we left. We always stay until right before check out because we were on a weekend getaway from our toddler. While in the middle of private time an hour and 16 minutes before check out a person from housekeeping banged on our door a few times.

We w eat over night so we could visit friends in a nearby resort. The beds were comfortable, rooms were cleaned, pool deck area nice. I love the “you can’t get in areas without key card”. The concierge was very knowledgeable about good dining and shared other people’s feedback with their experiences of local eateries. He suggested Landry’s right next to them and he was spot on for what we were looking for. I usually attend other functions in Orlando and we will be coming back. I don’t believe in giving bad reviews and try to give the positive. This is my feedback to those who are not aware of Applebees. I usually do not eat at my local Applebees here in my town due to service and quality of food. So…the positive is the servers at this resort were friendly. The girl who sat us brought our drinks. We told her we were eating the breakfast bar. We never saw her again with the exception of the bill. The food was tasty and there is a wide range of options to choose from. Again rather than bashing I’d rather say for my appetite and the small portion I eat; 19.99 is way too much for a one trip and little bit of this and little bit of that. My suggestion to chilis is to have a one trip price to go along with your all you can eat price. Or make your menu that you offer have more to choose from say like things that are on your bar.

The only reason why we keep coming back to this hotel is because we like to go to the Applebee's that is connected to it if you go to the Applebee's you will definitely get great service from the waiter his name is Paul and you should ask for him by name and tell him that candy and Kenny sent you.. he is overly amazing and will make you feel right at home this time when we went the buffet food was cold but we didn't mind cuz we mainly went to see Paul we always go to see Paul when we come to the area so because of him we stay.

Hotel is very old. Water pressure and staff are excellent but lighting is terrible. We had lamps but minimal fixed light fixtures so lighting is terrible. Our ceiling didnt have a single light over the bedding area. We had a pool view room that you wouldn't see the pool from unless you looked over the balcony and turned. The pool is large but limited. The bar in the pool area was down for construction. It's an okay hotel if you're strictly sleeping. If you're looking to spend time there awake, it's not a top pick.

I love that it requires key card access as well as private parking. The pool is absolutely beautiful and the room we booked had a nice overview of the pool area. We had such a blast at Applebees and the food there was so fresh and absolutely delicious. We had such an amazing server her name is Jaylene, she went above and beyond to serve us all while keeping such good conversation with us. So I booked the stay on booking here the booking app and no where on here did it say anything about a security deposit fee. We arrived at the hotel ready to check in and we weren’t allowed to without paying additional fees which we were not notified of before hand. Which I find absolutely ridiculous, extremely frustrating, and inconvenient. I would like it if we were notified beforehand of any or such fees with notice prior going the distance to the hotel.

Great hotel close to Disney and Universal. Great pool and restaurant

Didn't see or was offered breakfast. The person at the counter was quiet, not very friendly. I aldo found hair in one of the towels. When I booked the reservation I was quoted 133.50; the was nothing that said parking was not included. It was a surprise when i paid 173.50 for an average hotel. Never going back. Very disappointing.

The location was good close to everything. I didn’t like having to pay for a resort fee when I booked I thought all fees where included in price I thought I was paying. I liked that they had tiki bar … when new one is complete it will be even better

Staff was great and very friendly. The hotel itself is older and not well maintained, but the room was very large and a good value for the price. It’s a solid option if you’re just looking for an inexpensive place to stay. That said, it’s not somewhere I would choose for a family stay.

Huge room!! Comfy beds!! Bathroom can use better upkeep, some rust on TP holder, tub drain was broken, some red marks on bottom of tub. Overall very nice stay and would book again. Little sketchy to get into F hallway from parking lot. Confusing, but once we found it, great. Close to Disney!!!

Whether it’s my husband and I having a night away or we’re here with our kids, it’s the only hotel we stay at! We’ve been coming here the last 5 years, we only live an hour away but it’s our go to spot for a night or two away. It’s always very clean, having Applebees connected to it makes it very convenient and our kids love the pool area that also has a splash pad and hot tubs and the new game rooms are so much fun! Don’t wait, book your next stay here!

The pictures make it look nicer than it is. The pool bar is closed in April and it’s kinda sad. The carpets in the hallways need a good cleaning they smell like a seedy Vegas hotel.

One of the best features was the complimentary shuttle service. They take you directly to the ticketing areas for all the parks—Universal, Disney, and even the water parks. Not having to worry about driving, traffic, or paying for parking was a huge plus. The shuttle dropped me right at the front entrance, which made getting in and out of the parks so easy. The location is also perfect. If you want to grab a casual meal or just unwind with a drink, there’s an Applebee’s connected right to the hotel—you can literally walk over in minutes. It’s such a convenient option, especially after a long day at the parks. The amenities were fantastic as well. The pool area is huge and perfect for families, with a dedicated water pad/play area for kids. There’s also an outdoor bar, which makes it great for both families and adults looking to relax. What really stood out to me was the value. I paid just over $100 for the night, while my son stayed at a Universal resort for nearly $600 a night. When they wanted to visit Epcot, they still had to drive and pay for parking, while I simply took the free shuttle. For the price and convenience, this hotel exceeded my expectations in every way.I truly can’t say enough good things about this place,Whether you’re traveling with kids o

Me and my kids loved this hotel, my kids got to eat free everyday at the Applebees that was attached to the hotel.. the rooms are nice and big.. I would definitely recommend this resort
- 3.5/5
Nice, updated room and was comfortable for the family. It was too cold to swim, but the pool area was nice and tropical feeling with the trees, bushes and tiki-style bar area. Also, a great location to Disney parks. Also walkable to some restaurants but road out front very busy. Just kinda pricey with an expensive resort fee. The pool area was nice but the cost seemed a bit excessive for what it offered and also compared to other hotels around the area. And there was no free coffee in the lobby.

We liked the pool and that it was close to dining and theme parks. That when house keeping would come to clean the room they would only replace towels and that was it they never replaced hand soap or tissues so I did go buy hand soap to use in the room. They never cleaned the room we had 6 people in the room they would only give us 4 towels. We also ordered food from the tiki bar they had they never once told us there was a service fee it was a $47 service fee just to order wings and mozzarella sticks there needs to be a sign or people need to be told because that a steep service fee

The pool area was great! The kiddos loves the bunk beds. The King bed was very comfortable. The breakfast was expensive for what would normally be a free continental type breakfast.
- 3/5
The beds were comfortable and clean. The carpet was frayed and pulled away from the tile floor. There was pounding and a lot of noise coming from what sounded like down the hall around 10pm. The staff sent us a text at 7:30am about check out. Which is too early in my opinion when check out time is 11. We stayed to be able to sleep in an drive home safe. When we replied to the text that 7:30 am was too early for that type of message we received rhe reply. Have a nice day, Maria. No sympathy or apology for waking us up early. Will not stay again, or book another stay at this hotel chain.

Room was clean and very big! I only have a 4 be because we did not get a chance to use most of the amenities at the hotel. I may have missed it on the Expedia app, but there is a $20 charge for parking. It didn’t bother me too much because the room rate was so reasonable.

The bed was too close to the air conditioner so whoever slept on that side had to be careful when getting out of bed or they need to roll to the other side just to get out.

When I first got there, I checked in and Expedia only hadn’t told me that I was gonna pay about $35 ended up paying 75 for a room that I got for $84 so it was like doubled the price. Then the concierge lady wasn’t taking no for an answer to speak with me. I advised her that my husband was in the car waiting for me and I did not feel good. I had had a long day. She was adamant about speaking with me. As soon as we got to the room, we relaxed for a little bit, and then we went to the pool, which I was told and why I booked this hotel was that it was a heated pool with a hot tub. The pool was not heated at all, and the hot tub was only warm then the AC was not working during the middle of the night before I went to bed. I had put on the do not disturb sign so I could sleep in the maid was knocking on the door at 8 o’clock in the morning when my husband got up, he told her that they had to sign and she was just like OK it’s hard because I do like staying at Holiday Inn but I probably would not stay at this one again

While the room appeared clean, several items were in need of replacement/updating. All of the furniture was chipped/scuffed/damaged. The lighting for the bunk beds is old/outdated and the beds don’t seem to fit well in the bunk frame. The king bed was hard and squeaky and the box spring did not fit correctly. The TVs didn’t offer much. The bathroom was ok. Some rust on fixtures and the tub needs a good bleach or replacement. There were miscellaneous hairs on some of the bedding and in the tub grout. Probably from cleaning staff but added to the feeling of the room not being super clean. The carpeting did not feel clean and there were some old crumbs under the table. Staff was friendly. Overall it was ok for one night. Thank you.

I complained to staff (Maria) and their only response was thank you for the feedback we will let management know. Very disappointing. I won’t stay again.

Front desk was not inviting what so ever. The bar, though advertised daily never opened. Not a typical FL weather week but only one of the hot tubs was functional.

This hotel was excellent value for the money. I was attending a small conference at a hotel closer to Disney Springs (four times more expensive). It's about a half an hour walk from the Holiday Inn Resort over to Disney Springs. The first part of the walk is a little unpleasant due to rad construction but most of it is quite lovely. You don't need to have a car to get from the hotel to Disney Springs. I was a little nervous when I read the hotel reviews but the room was very clean. The bar area by the pool was quite pleasant. I enjoyed sitting there in the evenings, reading a book and watching the kidssplash in the pool and enjoying a glass of wine.

One hot tub was broken. The other had 10 kids in it. Hubby has disc degenerative disease and needed to sit in it after our trip there. Kids would not let us in. Normally hot tubs are for adults only. Tiki pool bar- we stood 22 minutes waiting to order a drink- no staff ever showed up so we left. Applebees was terrible- did not have Baileys cream- did not know what a Colorado Bulldog was.

My review began as a five star yet changed after the first evening we stayed. There is music playing from late morning all the way till approximately 11 PM every night. This time of year it happened to be Christmas music over and over and it was so loud we could hear it even with our door closed on the outside patio. In other words, there was absolutely no peace. Not even while outside at the pool as it was much louder outside and again, it was Christmas music some of the same songs repetitive. It is very hard to relax when that’s all you can hear. I honestly can’t say I’d stay here again. It would depend on the question of, Is there music that still goes on day and night? Now, at least I know to call before making arrangements for my stay. Other than that, the room was clean, and most of the staff was professional and courteous. I wouldn’t say anyone went out of their way, but for the price and breakfast included that part was worth it. The staff at the restaurant Applebee’s was very nice every morning for a great buffet breakfast. Thank you did that!

was not pleasant. Also, the walls are VERY thin! We could hear the shower and toilet from the room above us like they were in our room. The noise level is high because of the thin walls also. There isca movie "theater" and a nice arcade. We didn't use the pools or hot tubs. Beds are very comfortable. Overall, worth the very reasonable price. Cleanliness and no bugs are the most important attributes for us and the room did meet those. was not pleasant. Also, the walls are very

The room was terrible. We had a room with bunk beds and a queen. The bottom of the queen was ripped apart and the bunk beds were hard and uncomfortable. The tvs didn't have any signal, towels had black marks on them. There were stains on the walls. Staff was very nice but the hotel was in very poor condition.

Young girl Saturday morning was not friendly. Hot water was taking like 5 minutes to start coming out. Room phone to call reception was not working. $22 per night for parking. Breakfast not included. Several outlets did not have electricity. Many little things add up.
- 2/5
All of the extra hidden fees were misrepresented on Hotels.com and should be updated immediately, Breakfast was at Applebee's for $16.99 an adult, pls $7.99 per kid and I book based on advertisement details breakfast is included and the parking fees of $30 per day should be updated as well, unexpected fees is NOT ideal. Frustrating.

The only reason for the 2 stars is because the king bed seemed new-ish and was comfortable. But the carpet was sooo dirty, I forbade anyone from walking around barefoot. But the worst part was the room smelled strongly of ammonia. I could barely breathe in the room and it made me congested. The smell was nearly unbearable. The twin beds and pillows were dirty (not the sheets, but the pillows and mattresses.) My son said his pillow had a brown smear on it. We checked in late at night and had nowhere else to go, but the next morning I couldn't get out of there fast enough!

The room was overall clean. The bathroom could’ve been cleaner, but it was manageable. The only issue was that the sheets were very itchy; I’m not sure if it was due to the detergent they used. We checked for bedbugs and found none, but we ultimately had to leave because the sheets were uncomfortable.

This was a surprisingly excellent stay. The bus transportation we could not use because of the hours were off so we used uber. Close to Disney. After a long day at the park the two hot tubs were awesome. Beds comfy. Applebees attached to the hotel was very convenient. Will stay at this hotel again for sure.

My daughter and I stayed here two days while we were in town for a concert and day tripping over in Disney Springs. Hotel was welcoming, clean, comfortable and affordable.

This was a decent hotel for the price. We didn’t use any of the amenities, but the pool area appeared to look nice. There was a breakfast buffet offered at Applebee’s for a fee. We did not use that just sharing the info. I didn’t like that I had to pay for parking and maybe that’s something that I missed when booking.

They accommodated us same day after we had a bad experience at an Airbnb the night before. Room was clean, beds were soft and pillows fluffy, guest gate key made us feel safe, and the staff from reception to housekeeping to the waiters at the Airbnb were wonderful. 10/10. We will be staying here for our summer trip!

The hotel was clean, room was clean, I had no issues with my stay other than Hotels.com booking. Please be careful when using this site, you click on one hotel thinking this is where you are booking your stay and they put you in a different location in the same city. Read the fine print for other charges that are not highlighted in your booking. Our stay cost us more than expected when we got to the hotel they booked us at. Not cool! Don't think I will be using this app again to book my stays.

This hotel was amazing. Clean, friendly staff, shuttle to Disney parks and Disney springs. No shuttle to airport but uber was $17. MCO airport 29 minutes away. Applebee’s restaurant on site. Nearby walking distance seven eleven. Walgreens Wendy’s across the street. Pool area was well stocked with towels. Pool water crystal clear. Everything about this hotel was amazing. Arcade room. Very clean and updated. Uber ride to Old Town in Kissimmee was only $13. I loved the tiki bar and cabana at the pool area.

I can’t speak for the interior rooms, but the exterior room we stayed in was absolutely disgusting. The photos online are extremely misleading — they don’t reflect the actual condition of the rooms. Everything was old, outdated, and poorly maintained. The bathroom was so tiny that only one person could fit at a time, which made getting ready a nightmare. The towels were stained, there was dirt and mold along the baseboards, and the walls desperately need repainting. When I went to make coffee, there were bugs on the coffee cups. We texted the hotel after they asked how our stay was going and explained what we were experiencing. Their only response was, “We apologize for the inconvenience we can send you more cups.” — which, of course, never happened. The beds are on very tall platforms, so if you have mobility issues or young kids, be careful — you basically have to jump up to get on them. Lastly, the hotel advertises a “park shuttle,” but it’s extremely limited: only one pickup in the morning (45 minutes before park opening) and one return after the park closes — 1.5 hours after closing, to be exact. No other times available. I’m leaving this review to help other families visiting Disney. This hotel is not one I would recommend to anyone in our Disney community.

First time staying here, not bad at all. The room was nice, bed was comfortable. The water did not get hot when showering, just warm. The pool was too cold for me, but my son loved it. I wish the hot tub had been open. The restaurant next door is slow, so have patience. They do have bus service to Disney Springs and the parks..but only at certain times. There is a gas station, Chick-fil-A, Wendy's, and a Disney gift shop across the street from the hotel. The hotel does have an arcade, movie theater, and small convenience store inside.

I almost want to gate keep my favorite Orlando hotel - but the rest of the world deserves to know and appreciate it just as much as I do! I have stayed at this Holiday Inn countless times over the years and I am always completely satisfied with my stay! First of all, for the area, you absolutely can not beat the price! With nearby hotels becoming so expensive, I appreciate the affordability of the Holiday Inn without compromising the quality! I normally book a balcony room and it’s nice to over look the pool and just enjoy the views and weather! I frequent the Disney parks and this is no more than a 10 minute Uber ride from them. My usual routine is I walk to the Starbucks nearby, grab my morning coffee and Uber from there. I love the walkability of this area to nearby places like 7/11 (next door), Walgreens, and several fast food/restaurants. Or when I’m feeling lazy I just stop at the Applebees in the lobby! I never fail to tell people how cool it is that this hotel has an Applebees connected in the lobby haha .. Thank you Holiday Inn! Please never change!!

The hotel was clean and quiet when we went to sleep. Had a lot of kid friendly things to do there. Was a little upset that we had to pay resort fee when the pool was closed both days we were there for renovations. Should have got a discount on that part. Overall hotel was good.

I booked Holiday Inn Resort Orlando Lake Buena Vista by IHG on Florida 535 because it was advertised as a Walt Disney World Good Neighbor Hotel. This was the main reason I chose it — for the early entry benefit to Disney parks. When I asked the front desk about early entry, I was told that the hotel is no longer a Disney Good Neighbor Hotel. This is false advertising and very misleading for families planning their Disney vacations. Because of this misinformation, I ended up spending much more money than expected on things like Disney World parking and Lightning Lanes, and I had to scramble at the last minute to adjust our plans. The experience was stressful and disappointing. The location and property were great, and the staff were all amazing but the inaccurate listing really impacted our trip. If the hotel no longer has this partnership, it should be immediately removed from all listings and promotions that state otherwise.

The hotel is certainly on the older side. The rooms felt dark and definitely needed an update. Thankfully only stayed one night. Did like it was family friendly and had restaurants and some entertainment on property. Plenty of parking was also nice to have. Location is great and convenient to the parks, stores, restaurants, and major highways.

I stayed on the first floor, and the curtains were completely see-through — people could see right into our room while we were sleeping or changing (One time I made direct eye contact with somebody outside the window) I called the front desk to see if something could be done about it, and they said they’d send someone (to do something like put up another curtain) but no one ever came. I waited for an hour and a half and never heard back. There was also a dog barking at all hours of the night, and I even overheard another guest complaining the next morning about shattered glass on her floor. Honestly, it feels like all they care about is taking your money, not actually providing a comfortable stay. I wish I would have asked for a partial refund, as it was the worst place I’ve ever stayed.
