Top Orlando Hotel Reviews

Kompose Boutique Resort at Theme Parks

8/10 Good

"My partner and I stayed here while visiting a friend who lives in the area. Overall, we had a good stay. The hotel was very clean, the breakfast buffet offered a nice variety, and the staff was friendly and attentive. We especially enjoyed the outdoor restaurant—it had great food, excellent drinks, and Joe, the bartender, was fantastic. The one thing worth noting is that, as adults traveling without children, it was nearly impossible to enjoy the pools or other outdoor amenities. They were filled with large numbers of young children, screaming, running, and playing throughout the resort. If you're traveling with your partner and hoping to relax by the pool with a book, this is not the best fit. However, if you're traveling with young children, this hotel is an excellent choice and offers a fun, family-friendly atmosphere."

Universal's Endless Summer Resort - Dockside Inn and Suites

10/10 Excellent

"Our stay was great at Endless Summer; very busy hotel theres always people in the lobby. We enjoyed the pool the most. The arcade is small for the quality of the resort a bigger with more game selection would have been nicer. The housekeeping staff only came in the morning and for those that enjoy sleeping in welp lets just say we never got our rooms serviced bc we where always occupying it when they arrived. The staff did ask if we needed anything and swapping out towels, taking the garbage was always feasible. Having the food bar was great just always a large amount of people very busy for our liking. If you dont mind the crowd this is a great place- we where in town for my daughters volleyball tournament. Theres also complimentary shuttle service to all the parks which is nice too."
