"The resort was great, with lots of things for families to do and lots of food options. The main drawback was that the room was small and the bathroom was miniscule; I couldn't even open the door all the way. The cost of food was astronomical. If you're a family on a budget, bring some snacks.2022-03-02"
"Nice, clean hotel and pool areas.2015-05-05"
"Hotel room was nice but small, and the bathroom was tiny and had hair from a previous guest. Long wait to check in at night. Nice resort, though.2015-03-26"
"We had a short but wonderful stay. The hotel, grounds, and pool were beautiful, and every staff member we dealt with was exceptional, including at the Bull and Bear restaurant. We can't say enough about the employees; they exceeded our expectations. We highly recommend staying here.2019-08-16"
"Great hotel, but the check-in clerk had an attitude.2016-07-06"
"Nice hotel, but our room wasn't ready until after 6 PM, which was inexcusable.2019-01-06"
"Close to Downtown Disney. Not a good hotel room for the price. A faulty fire alarm went off for 2 hours in the middle of the night. No apologies or explanation provided. Nice staff.2015-06-15"

"A wonderful hotel. The room was big, the beds were comfortable, and the bathroom was nice and had plenty of hot water. We loved that the climate control wasn't too noisy, and we were able to buy food at the counter. There was a guest laundry on the 2nd, 4th, and 6th floors. Fabulous free bus service to Disney attractions. Disney Springs was within walking distance. We had a wonderful vacation.2023-03-13"

"The hotel was awesome. I liked that they offered to pay for buses to theme parks.2021-08-23"
"You get what you pay for. We returned to the hotel to find that our room hadn't been serviced. I went to the desk for towels and was told rooms were only serviced every 4 days. Despite being told the room would be cleaned the next day as a courtesy, that didn't happen. Think twice about staying at this hotel.2021-11-24"
"We loved our stay at this hotel. The room was spacious and clean, and the employees were kind, friendly, and helpful. The full restaurant was nice and had delicious food, and it was extremely helpful having a store, a Disney store, and a car rental site on the premises. We loved the pool and poolside bar and grill. The free shuttles to Disney parks were a huge bonus. The only improvements I can suggest would be free wireless Internet and free parking. I highly recommend staying here.2017-04-08"
"We had a nice stay. The hotel was quiet and clean, and the breakfast buffet was wonderful.2017-01-09"
"A terrible experience. We left our room at 10 AM for just 30 minutes, and when we returned, all the food we had in the fridge was gone except the vegetables. The hotel clerk called housekeeping, and they returned some of the food. We did get a discount on our bill.2023-12-12"
"The hotel was pet friendly, but also quite clean. The staff went above and beyond to make everyone's stay as comfortable as possible.2022-10-03"
"Bring your own water and snacks; it's expensive to buy them at the hotel.2022-03-13"
"From the front desk to the bar, the driver and pool, the service at this hotel was good.2021-09-27"
"Great location near all Disney parks, and there was a Dunkin' Donuts nearby. Limited shuttle service. The hotel was pricey and a bit dated; no USB outlets, and the toilet was temperamental.2021-04-05"
"The hotel was clean and conveniently located.2021-01-20"
"The hotel room was good-sized and well-equipped, with a dishwasher, washer, and dryer. The restaurants were terrible, though; the food quality and service were both poor, and the hours were inconvenient.2021-03-14"
"Good hotel for the price. The room was clean, and the staff was friendly, but they needed a 2nd front desk clerk. The free shuttle to and from the parks was late in picking us up.2021-11-30"
"Located in the center of everything. The hotel was clean, and the staff was friendly. Don't hesitate to stay here.2021-02-01"

"Not worth the price. The hotel was dirty, and there was no hot breakfast during the week. The room wasn't nice. Poor shuttle service to and from the theme park. Don't stay here.2021-05-15"
"Limited shuttle to Disney, though it was just 10 minutes from the hotel.2019-03-11"
"A good 3-bedroom suite for an excellent price. However, we were surprised by the $39 fee for cleaning our room after we checked out. I strongly objected and find this a deplorable practice. If not for this, I would have given the hotel a high rating.2017-01-16"
"The room was better than we expected for the price, and the beds were comfortable. The only issue was that the side door was locked at night, and my handicapped husband had a long walk to the main entrance. Not enough handicap parking spaces. We'd stay at this hotel again.2023-11-26"
"The hotel was dirty. The room was dated and dirty, and the beds were hard. The TV needed to be replaced. The bathroom was hard to access; the door was in the wrong place. Some employees were helpful, and others were not. Don't stay here.2023-01-25"
"Good value. Decent hotel. The room could have been cleaner. Had a kitchenette. Didn't like not having a bathtub; there was only a shower with a nasty wooden seat. There were intoxicated people in the pool area.2015-06-03"
"Nice hotel room, but ours faced the noisy road. The staff accommodated our request for a room change to the back of the building. The new room was perfect.2022-07-05"
"The toilet in our hotel room overflowed as soon as we arrived.2019-04-21"
"Our room smelled like mold, and the carpet was wet. The phone didn't work. Later, the room flooded from the AC; when it was reported, someone was sent to clean it up, but we were left in a room that smelled bad and had wet carpeting. Don't stay at this hotel.2023-04-17"
"The hotel was reasonably priced. I had a great stay.2023-02-08"
"The hotel was overpriced, and our room in an adjacent building was kind of run-down and didn't look like online photos. The TV and iron didn't work. No complimentary breakfast.2022-01-02"
"The hallways and elevators had debris from repair work. The door in my room didn't work properly, and neither did the sink. The chairs were stained. The elevator was slow. There were cockroaches near the breakfast area and around the restaurant attached to the hotel. Spare yourself and stay somewhere else. 2024-01-20"
"The hotel room was average, and breakfast was mostly waffles. No milk the 1st morning, so I couldn't even have cereal. Just coffee, water, and watered-down orange juice to drink. The restaurant was good for dinner, though.2023-03-05"
"Our hotel stay was the best. We had to change rooms due to a plumbing issue, but the room was great. We liked the wall division that allowed for some privacy for the kids and adults. The kids had a bunk bed, and the adults used the sofa bed. The wall-mounted TV was awesome. There were restaurants within walking distance.2022-09-09"
"Good hotel if you just need a place to sleep and shower. The room was a bit small but clean and odor-free. The beds were full-sized instead of queen. Nice lobby and OK staff. The pool and whirlpool were in back. Not bad overall. There was a $15 parking fee.2018-01-03"
"Excellent rates, and convenient to WDW and other parks. The room was clean and spacious, and the bed was comfortable. The only negative was the safe in our room didn't work. The breakfast staff did a great job of keeping breakfast food hot and plentiful. I'd recommend this hotel to friends and family.2024-02-09"
"A decent hotel with nice employees. The room was large and clean, but the mattress was hard as a rock; it made sleeping difficult. Breakfast was nice and adequate.2023-05-28"
"The hotel staff was nice and courteous. Stay here.2021-11-27"
HotelGuides makes it easy to find hotels that are pet friendly. I also like the ease of changing reservations and that I don’t have to pay in advance.
We order the hotels on this page by how close they are to this attraction.
Most of our competitors order these same hotels in other ways that make them more money.
How Do We Define Motel?
To us, motels are smaller lodgings that have rooms you can enter directly from the parking area.
At hotels, on the other hand, you can enter your room only through a hall inside the building.
Hotel Booking Tips
Beware of non-refundable reservations that could cost you a lot of money if you change or cancel them. +Non-refundable reservations are a gamble that will usually save you less than $10. If you make a $90 non-refundable reservation instead of a $100 refundable booking, you are betting $90 to win $10. Would you do that in Las Vegas? -
Don't assume you can cancel a non-refundable reservation without penalty if you notify the hotel weeks or even months in advance. +Often you cannot – because some hotels' profit strategy is to get paid more than once for the same room for the same night. -
Always read cancellation policies carefully before you make a reservation. + When is the latest date and time you can cancel without penalty? - More >
When you make a reservation, you will receive a confirmation email. Take a copy with you to the hotel.
The earlier in the afternoon you check into a hotel, the more likely you will get a room or suite that matches your preferences.
