Five Best Orlando Hotels

By Jim Rosenthal

I think if you are going to Orlando you better stay on or near International Drive. If you are going for any other reason that the theme parks, I would probably say different, however International Drive is where all the theme parks are. I have picked out my five favorite hotels in Orlando, Florida and I am going to share them with you.

Number one: Fairfield Inn & Suites Orlando International Drive. This hotel has a shuttle that runs to Universal Studios and Islands of Adventure, my favorite theme park in Orlando. Our clients have rated this hotel as very clean with a friendly staff. It is also in prime location near all the theme parks. The hotel also offers a wide range of variety in their continental breakfast. Of all the Orlando Hotels this is my favorite.

Number two: Hampton Inn Orlando - Convention Center. The beds are excellent and the staff is top notch. There is a breakfast in the morning that is excellent. The rooms are very nice. They are well kept up and most of all very clean. The hotel is about 2 minutes from International Drive. This is my number two pick of Orlando Hotels.

Number three: Horizons by Marriott Vacation Club at Orlando. This hotel is a great place for a family, however that is typical for Orlando Hotels. The staff is excellent here. This hotel has a ton of entertainment options available including miniature golf, basketball, pools and child pools, hot tubs, pool tables, ping pong tables, a poolside bar. This is the number three of the Orlando Hotels.

Number four: Hilton Grand Vacations Club on International Drive. What a place for your whole family to enjoy. This hotel puts together entertainment for the kids. There is a bunch a family atmosphere as soon as you walk in, plus the property itself is beautiful. The hotel is located right by Sea World and close to Walt Disney World. There is a shuttle and trolley that will pick you up at the front gate and takes you where you want to go. I have also learned that they have excellent homemade ice cream in their recreation room. This is the number four rank out of all the Orlando Hotels.

Number five: Crowne Plaza Orlando Universal. This is another hotel with very comfortable beds. The staff is extremely friendly, and the rooms are clean with nice furniture. This property also has LCD televisions. The downside is the hotel is not within walking distance of much, and is not as kid friendly as the others. This is our number five rank of the Orlando Hotels.
