Good hotel, great location

by jg_mia

Good hotel, friendly staff, close proximity to the airport (which, unfortunately, also means toll roads) but still pretty quiet.

There are plenty of fast food places (including a Hooters) a couple of miles down the road. Free parking is available. The pool was closed for maintenance though.

The room I was given had a great view of the lake and the fountain but was too small. Free issue of USA Today was provided by the hotel. All in all, a pretty good hotel.

• Pros: Location, Free Parking, Good value
• Cons: Rooms a bit small

Very nice hotel stay for the right price

This hotel is vastly superior to the Orlando Radisson. Even though the Marriott is located right near the airport, it has almost the feel of a resort. The pool is very nice, as is the gazebo by the lake. The hotel offers a free airport shuttle. The rooms are not large, but clean and comfortable. The service is accommodating. The burgers at the bar are very good. The one slight negative is that the bartender barely speaks English. I would recommend this hotel to someone who prefers to stay by the airport.

• Pros: Service, Free Shuttle

A serene setting between two lakes makes the five-minute ride to the airport hard to believe.

The Scene
Business travelers and those simply seeking the convenience of airport proximity, while craving a bit of a buffer zone from the bustling tarmacs and terminals, may find this resort-like setting appealing. Nestled between two lakes, the 484-room hotel has a wide-open, solitary feel and enjoys 360-degree views. It's hard to believe that it's only five minutes from Orlando International Airport. Complimentary shuttle service is offered to and from.

The Details
Rooms offer most of the appointments business travelers expect, and a good selection of recreational amenities is available, including indoor and outdoor heated pool, tennis, basketball and sand volleyball courts, and sauna and steam room. Of two on-site restaurants, one features fine dining. A live dj and dancing on the weekends soften the corporate travel atmosphere.
