Renaissance Hotels in Orlando

With all the great Marriott options in the Disney area, this one certainly punches above it weight. The building has a great look both inside and out (love the huge atrium in the center of the building). The locations is convenient to Disney, Universal, I Drive, and obviously Sea World. You do have to pay resorts fees and for parking, but that's no different than any other resort property in the area. Plus, if you take advantage of the shuttle service to the park, the resort fee pays for itself. We've stayed here twice in the last 2 months and all of the employees have been polite and helpful. The rooms are excellent, exactly what you would expect from a Renaissance level property, and have the amenities that you would expect. Pool area is nice and the pool bar meets expectations. What sets this place apart is the lobby bar and the breakfast buffet. The lobby bar sits in the middle of the atrium, so its got a great vibe. Drink prices are what you'd expect, but if you're a high medallion member (got titanium this year), they give you 2 beer/wine vouchers per visit. The breakfast buffet is EXCELLENT, and again if you're medallion (not sure which level the cutoff is at) it's free. We usually never opt in for the free breakfast, but we always get this buffet when we stay here. All the selections including an omelet station. Anna always takes care of us at breakfast. She even remembered us from our previous stay a month prior which really impressed me and my fiancée. She's so polite and helpful and her personality and smile start your day on the right note. If you're looking for a resort feel for your Orlando trip but don't want to shell out JW or Ritz prices, this is where you want to go! Top marks all around!

I checked into the hotel and was immediately impressed. It’s clean, smells great and I was welcomed by the amazing Anais that made check-in such a breeze! As a former GSA I was very happy with her customer service and how helpful she was! She Even managed to put my crew on the same floor. We are extremely grateful for that! All of our rooms are spacious& clean and housekeeping has done a very impressive job with the upkeep of our rooms! I also have to thank Alvin whom stayed on the phone with me while I found my way back to the hotel. His patience was truly appreciated! This is going to be my home for the next couple of weeks and I’m very happy and satisfied to have been placed in this hotel.
