We stayed for 2 weeks. The location was good as we could walk to universal not too far but could be hot depending what time of day you went. There was also a good selection of restaurants nearby. Another plus was the I trolley green line stops outside so was easy to get around without the use of a car.... More

Three friends and I took a roadtrip to Florida in August, and our second stop was Orlando. We did not have any reservations, as the trip was spontaneous. We stumbled across the Doubletree and absolutely loved it! The location couldn't be more perfect, and the nightly rate was very low. This hotel boasts a lovely atmosphere and the staff is... More

Excellent location if visiting Universal Studies, $5 taxi ride, well maintained hotel, great pool,very comfy rooms, especially bedding! Only complaint, drink prices in the bar crazy, but TGIF's just across the road. Staff excellent.

We were there recently for a weekend convention-type event. When making the reservation, I requested an upper floor. On check-in, we were given a room on the second floor (disappointed, but this eventually worked in our favor). Carpeting in room was badly stained. They have a bank of 3 elevators to serve the North tower (19 floors). The entire weekend... More

We wanted to get out of Boston and get some sun to work on that tan (May 4-6, 2012). Chose the Doubletree for it's convenient location (~10-15 min walk) to Universal's City Walk. The AAA price of $118/night was also reasonable. First impressions of the hotel were favorable. Warm cookies at check-in and friendly staff. Requested a "Pure" room when... More
