I hosted my rehearsal dinner and a meet and greet event for out-of-town wedding guests on the Garden Patio at the Hilton Garden Inn in Lake Mary I am so thankful for Michelle’s help in coordinating the event, she created a floor plan for the evening and helped me pick the food and beverage packages to suit our needs We ordered the Italian buffet for dinner and the food was phenomenal! The chicken parmesan and tortellini were especially delicious as were the chocolate cake and cheesecake!We used Hilton Garden Inn Lake Mary for one of our room blocks as well

They were able to reserve a courtesy block of rooms for our wedding guests until a month before the wedding They were flexible with guests who needed to check in earlier than our room block or extend their stay past the room block dates (we didn’t have as much flexibility at the other hotel where we had a room block) Another perk was the free shuttle for guests from the hotel to the Lake Mary Events Center where we held our wedding We appreciated this service, although the shuttle was running a little behind Just make sure to schedule shuttle service for a little earlier to account for traffic etc and it should be fine We also stayed at this hotel after our wedding Our king room was spacious and the hotel treated us to chocolate covered strawberries and champagne in our room on the wedding night!

We had a great stay, great pool with plenty of seating and loved they hard board games for the kids to play My only negatives were some of the staff was not friendly at times with a bit of attitude when asked questions and the only other thing was the breakfast set up I felt that there should javelin been more food but also just get the order right

One time I can understand but 2 days in a row it is a training problem Still recommend staying when at a PG event, only 17 min from field with no tolls

Colin Bosler

Stayed here one night after my flight from SFB was canceled The staff were friendly and helpful, and the room was great! Laundry facilities were solid, breakfast was tasty and the pool seemed nice (didn’t have time to try it but others seemed to be enjoying themselves) Shower pressure and temperature were on point as well

I would definitely stay here again

We have stayed at a number of Embassy Suites this year due to business and personal travel This was our first stay at the ES Downtown Orlando and it was by far the cleanest and best organized in our experience with the chain My wife and I were so impressed that we had to find the Housekeeping Manager, Mr

Kevin Robinson and tell him personally how much we were enjoying our stay in our outstandingly clean room We can be persnickety about cleanliness and we were not disappointed The breakfast buffet was also outstanding The young lady that served as the cook to order chef was the best (sorry I did not get her name) The best stay ever!!! Thanks Mr Robinson and staff The leadership team at this facility is doing a bang up job!

Chris McEachran

The communication from staff prior to check-in was great, both via text and phone Check-in was a breeze and room was well equipped Unfortunately a water-main/pipe burst on the day of our last night’s stay (3 night) and it went completely down hill from there

Downstairs/first floor was completely soaked (staff worked quickly to mitigate and mop up water) A/C in the hotel and room did not work/was out from mid afternoon Saturday until we checked out There was zero proactive communication and a complete lack of apologetic or sympathetic interaction from point forward When asking the desk at 130am the response was an apprehensive, “sometime in the middle of the night”Checking out at 11am and still nothingConsidering Saturday night was the most expensive of the three night stay, I would expect better This will be our last stay at this Embassy/Hilton hotel

C Rule

Pros:- close to a lot of things downtown- free breakfast was alright (I didn’t have the time for the cooked food, it looked pretty good though)- the small pool is good and wasn’t busy during the week, it isn’t heated though so you might not be able to use it- the gym looked really good with pull-up bars and dumbbells and stuff didn’t have the chance to try itCons:- really uncomfortable beds with hard as a rock mattresses

I have a bad back and one night I tried sleep on the (marginally more comfortable) sofa bed because of how terrible the actual bed was- paper thin walls I could hear everything my neighbour said or did, and all of the cars in the street, of which there are many even at 1am- pool is tiny, you can’t actually swim in it at allOverall wouldn’t recommend if you like sleep But if you aren’t time limited and want somewhere downtown, it’s not a terrible place to stay

Stayed for one night, and had a great experience at Orlando Marriott Lake Mary! All the people with whom I interacted were friendly and helpful, and the warm breakfast buffet more than made up for the temporary closure of the executive lounge The beds were comfortable, water pressure was great, and the rooms were clean/well proportioned I would definitely stay here again

Jay M

Long time Life Platinum now Titanium Great 3 day stay till 1 AM on our last night Woke up by extremely loud guest

Sure others were disturbed Finally got back to sleep after a couple hours At least the hotel responded fairly quick after my call In the morning we got up and drove 8 hours homeWhen I said something the next morning as we were leaving, all I got was “Sometimes we have bad guests”Everything was 5 star till no real concern or consideration No points or other adjustments for this significant inconvenienceRestaurant staff and breakfast were 5 star

The property was clean and well kept After a long day of delayed flights, check in was a breeze The front desk reception was very pleasant and well informed

The room was immaculate and spacious The king size bed was very comfortable and I slept like a baby The bathrooms were clean and well stocked with supplies Coffee pods were available every morning by house keeping staff Housing keeping cleaned the room every morning restocked the coffee pods and sugar The breakfast offered every morning was delicious, ranging from fruits to hot sandwiches Very professional management and staff I would recommend Spring Hill Suites at Winter Park to anyone traveling thru the area Easy 5 stars Will definitely be staying there I My future travels

Jenny Adams

The hotel is very, very nice It’s clean, modern, and feels brand new My only complaint is that the food is all Jinny Dean packaged meals, still in its plastic

At Hampton Inn you get scrambled eggs and bacon and potatoes every time Marriott’s breakfast is more like snack food than a meal For the price of this hotel I was expecting much, much more from breakfast

Wendy G

The property is very clean and well-maintained The breakfast is very good quality ( all types of juice, milks and Jimmy Dean breakfast foods to ” grab and go ” and desserts as well Not a ton of fruit, but good selection overall )

The front desk was fun and good to chat wbut didn’t get a good room from him sadly Biggest gripe is the rooms honestlysuck beds are smaller than other properties No views here either ( unless you like parking lots and Expressways ) The comfort factor is a big fail here

YouTube Inspired -Chaotic Calm

My dauthers and I thoroughly enjoyed our stay here It was by far, one of our best hotel experiences in Orlando From check-in, to surprising my girls with the delicious breakfast in the morning

Our room was so nice, and the beds delightfully comfortable Located so close to downtown, it gave us a taste of downtown living 10/10 would recommend, and we will definitely come back again

Desiree Neal

Old property with renovations and soft touches of contemporary decor It’s downtown inner city so with that being said comes homelessness and stranglers… doesn’t bother me but might bother you Location is immediately off I-4 for a bit of convenience

Valet or self parking($18) and has a shuttle service that takes you 3mi of the property Staff interaction was pleasant and informative My stay came with breakfast I was supposed to have a dbl Queen however the 3rd party sent it to the hotel as king room The front desk employee was able to make a reasonable adjustment and get me a room with a pull out sofa, Thanks front desk! The room was fresh but did have smudges on the wall, sofa cushions were worn and slouchy, the packaged cups placed with the ice bin had holes in the plastic and were torn 🤔 which made me question safety/cleanliness/sanitary but I’m just go pray about it and drink the alcohol hoping that kills whatever may have got in the cup

Cinda Clark

Room was nice but

negatives were coffee machine was broken, shower water temp was either scalding hot or cold no in-between, the lighting was terrible no light near door where only full length mirror is One of the lamps had an light bulb out that I pulled out so room service would know The mini fridge worked but the exterior so hot that i left cabinet door it was housed in open to try to cool it off Kept the drinks cold though The restaurant is NOT open for lunch even though advertised it is Positives was beds comfortable, rooms was clean and was cold

Great hotel! So easy to choose your room & get a digital key Staff is wonderful and everyone is friendly Someone had commented the rooms needed to be updated but mine was perfect

Great kitchen/Living room and separate bedroom Highly recommend this hotel as it is very conveniently located as well Will definitely stay here again

Selepri Amachree

Love the “comfort” factor in this place!! My favorite hotel was booked and I needed a reservation for work Homewood Suites popped into my search for the area and they had vacancy within the time parameters I needed I was kinda forced into booking here

BUT I’M NOT DISAPPOINTED! that’s the pleasant surprise that, so far, has turned into a pleasant experience ❤️ By the way, this place offers a cool soup, salad, and beer/wine social event every night around 5pm!!!👊😎👌

Anna-Marie Mitchell

This time around I was here for 5 weeks Furniture is getting worn down Bed is the old coil style

Weekday housekeeping crew did ok The weekend crew did great! They would wash my dishes (1 -2 items) Also scolded lap blanket and put awayThe breakfast crew is not professional Standing out in the breakfast area talking on cell phones oblivious to guests around Guest had to walk around her (This happened several days) Food not being ready on time, and supplies not stockedThe only other issue – ants in bathroom and bathroom sink area They treated 4 times first 2 weeks with no improvement Friends staying in other rooms with the same issueWould I stay here again yes, close to work and only place in area with kitchens

Work trip to Orlando Ended up being situated in this here room It was a fairly well maintained space

Nice sizable bed Had a couch for lounging, and a desk with a night light Even a microwave and mini fridge The location is great too, because everything is within walking distance so far as restaurants go There is even a pool, which I did not personally attend There is food served at the bar after 5 My only complaint is the room service was lacking The cleaning ladies didn’t clean up and replace the old towels They also left the trash in the bins Not the end of the world, but it isn’t asking much to do a complete job Otherwise, I would without a seconds hesitation spend another week straight here

brianna butler

So when I first arrived I initially had a problem The hotel was COMPLETELY full the weekend I went there was bus loads of people checking in The operation manager Adrianna was sure to reach out to me and completely take care of all the issues that I had

She was a saving grace! Good hotel Love the balconies Love the lemon scented products for shampoo and lotion Just extremely pleased with how this manager handled the situation after finding out what happened over the weekend

Shannon England

These hotel rooms are pretty gross The lobby has been updated nicely, but the rooms haven’t been TOUCHED in YEARS Looks like an old motel room inside

Not clean Our room had cobwebs, a tub that leaked all the way into the other room and smelled VERY musty Marie at the front desk was very sweet and moved is immediately after a flooding shower She was incredibly gracious and helpful BUT, this hotel needs a lot of work

We had a wonderful stay at this hotel! The staff are accommodating and politeThe room is spacious, comfy beds, huge shampoo/con/body wash pumps in the shower, mini fridge, coffeemaker, and a microwave and cappuccino machine are by the front deskBeautiful views, nice pool and jacuzzi, huge gym, outdoor couches, and a shaded walking trail just steps away! Plenty of restaurants and a Publix across the street

Shula’s was okay Slow service but food was good Nice patioWe will definitely come here again!

Tracey T. Rice

Nice hotel Clean rooms I am sensitive to light at night so I had to put a towel down to block the massive amounts from the hallway

No cover on the peephole, so that was bright as well Room darkening curtains did a good job There was one robe for my husband and I in the large bathroom They provided a small bottle of shampoo and conditioner, but one bar of soap for both hands and body Towels were fluffy and absorbent Did not make use of ironing board, iron or safe, but they had them Coffee maker uses round filter discs exclusive to the hotel The refrigerator kept food cool and did not freeze anything Adequate for a night Across a busy 4 lane divided road to many restaurants and a movie theater Front desk staff was friendly and accommodating Did not try the Shula’s restaurant located in the hotel

Melissa L

I had to travel with my dog So grateful for a pet friendly hotel Dog-friendly rooms have laminate flooring which is super helpful

Staff has been really helpful and kind The restaurant on site (Shula’s) is expensive but good The 3 issues I had is, due to covid there is limited room cleaning, the convenience store is very limited, and parking (although is plentiful) it’s a bit of trek Rooms are clean, quiet, and well organized Not the hotels fault but I4 was under construction and there was a long detour

We stayed there for a week with about 30 members in our group and breakfast was essentially non existent during the entire stay even though the person behind the desk would say it would be availableThere were no luggage carts to bring luggage and supplies in from the charter bus There was no courtesy water available from the dispenser AR the desk on the last day

My room did have trash left in it on the floor from previous occupancy We husband and I stay at Marriotts and Hiltons but this Marriott is not a consideration at this moment for future stays

Teresa Avila

Disgusted the whole time,There was hair and makeup on my sheets, the front desk brought me new sheets but was disgusted the rest of the trip There were also these tiny bugs everywhere, night stand, bathroom, desk, and couchAlso the breakfast & coffee were terrible, they had sausage biscuits one morning in the hotplate

They were literally coldIt will not let me upload the video of the big but I took a picture of the video

One of the best hotels I have ever been to! I loved everything about this place The staff were friendly, greeted everyone and held open doors constantly The lobby was clean and very pretty

Our room overlooked the pool area, which was my favorite part Beautiful palm trees surround the pool with plenty of chairs to relax on There are also some couches and chairs outside where you can relax with a drink if you don’t want to be near the pool If I ever come back to Orlando, I would never stay anywhere except The Celeste

Chris Jantsch

Excellent property, despite the confusing brand Two year old hotel easily ranks with Marriott, Sheraton, or Renaissance brands Clean, quiet rooms, outstanding housekeeping and engineering

Friendly, efficient front desk Hannah and Ireland in the Aurora restaurant, and Joel at the bar are outstanding Especially Joel Valets are friendly and attentive, have the hardest jobs as they’re outside all day Stayed here two weeks for business but enjoyed the clean, well-maintained salt-water pool whenever I could I’ll try to reserve here whenever I return to Orlando for work or pleasure

Stephanie Lopez-Shelton

We are enjoying staying here for graduation Pretty hotel Love the light up Space Shuttle wall mural

Weight room and pool are nice The Aurora restaurant was a lifesaver for us last night after checking in Everything was delicious Our waitress was really nice Front desk staff was welcoming The valet staff were really good and nice I felt bad for them with all the action out there in the heat but they were nice and smiling the whole time Our car was up before we came out every time Rooms are nice with very comfortable beds Definitely recommend this hotel!

Other than some mold/mildew in the bathroom, the room was wonderful I sleep in the day and it was quiet and the curtains kept the room dark The breakfasts were outstanding, especially the made to order omelets

I loved the restaurant in the lobby I ate there all 4 days and all the meals were tasty I would definitely go again and recommend the place to friends and family

Lori Leigh O’Gara

Customer service was great, for the most part, the hotel was not It was the loudest hotel I have ever stayed in You could hear every little thing through the walls and doors

Children were running all over the place with no one saying a word to them The bed was very uncomfortable The pillows were flat The complementary toiletries were cheap The “balcony” that I was looking forward to sitting on to drink coffee and look at the lake in the morning was a 12 in ledge with a railing and a slide open window The breakfast was mediocre, the cooks doing the made to order omelets were rude The staff cleaning up the dinning area were very polite The cleaning staff were attentive The front desk staff were great The parking was ok, but several large trucks and one SUV took two and three parking spots so it was difficult to find a place to park I tend to stick with Hilton hotels because they are normally a cut above and I am rarely disappointed This time, I was wondering if I had actually booked a Hilton property or a look a like Come on, Hilton, you can do better than this

Monica Lopez

We always stay at the embassy suites and this one was probably the worst one we’ve stay at Employees were great and nice but the hotel was very out dated, our room was not clean The A/C did not work, it said it was on 65 but felt like 75

It was very humid in our room When it rained the carpet in the room by the window got soaking wet My son slept on the pull out bed and the bed was VERY uncomfortable, no padding what so ever He said he just felt the springs in the bed The staffed fixed the bed by bringing a pillow topper but that should not be necessary The buffet breakfast was good but I wish the happy hour was at least til 8 We always missed the happy hour because we were at the baseball fields for my son’s tournament At the end of our week long stay there was a huge group of people that came to stay and they took up every single seat in the lobby during breakfast time Nobody else had a place to sit during breakfast, they were not even eating so I found that annoying that we had to sit without a table to eat our breakfast Overall very disappointed in this embassy stay

The staff was wonderful and tried to be accommodating which is amazing considering how under staffed they were The breakfast buffet was excellent We did encounter a few issues

No Handicapp stalls in the ladies room on the main floor, air conditioner in our room did not work It was replaced with a new unit a few hours later; clogged toilet, they had to use a Plunger to fix (40 minutes later), I booked my room 6 weeks in advanced with a request for a king room with roll in shower which was confirmed Upon my arrival was informed there were given out earlier Why bother booking special requests if they are not honored We did have a walk in shower, no hand held shower head shower head and no bench to sit on Very painful trying to stand to shower Very disappointing

Jessica Glancy

I stayed here for a conference June of 2022 The staff at the front desk was super helpful and friendly My room was clean and comfortable

My only complaint is about the air conditioner in my room It ran constantly, and it was loud To get it to turn off I would turn the temperature up on the thermostat This shut the unit off, but it wouldn’t be long until the room would get humid and the air needed to be turned on The overall stay was great and I would stay here again

Alycia Alvarez

Always a great stay We’ve stayed twice with our baseball team The hotel is clean, the staff is friendly & the beds are comfortable

The location isn’t my favorite & I always have trouble with the gate in the parking lot but I will continue to stay here when we’re playing ball in Orlando The kids always enjoy the pool & hot tub & there is a restaurant & bar right down stairs, which is super convient

Xavier Medina

This Inn was very cozy and clean The entrance is kind of tucked away if you’re coming from Lake Eola next door We were greeted with smiles and the lobby smelled so clean

Coffee and infused water available right there Our room was a single queen with a balcony Room was a little small, but none the less comfortable Bed is nice and soft Bathroom was clean and the walk in shower was spacious Balcony is shared, separated by white curtains The view outside wasn’t amazing, but for just sitting outside enjoying the weather it’s nice My only complaint was that our TV wasn’t workingThere is an open balcony in the main hallway in the 2nd floor with comfy chairs Nice area to just catch some sun and relax At night they have soft lights around the areaOverall it’s a nice stay and would recommend itAlso sits above a bar!

Garret Stewart

Probably one of my favorite hotels I’ve ever stayed in Super clean Staff was really friendly

We had the King balcony room it was very spacious and the bathroom was to die for 😍 The bathtub was HUGE! Also in a great location right next to a beautiful park and in walking distance to a ton of good food Next time I’m in Orlando I’ll definitely be staying here

The welcoming front desk agents (Franklin), the F&B staff (Marco), and the great Sales & Events department (Ashley) made our meetings and over night stay so pleasurable! The staff was so professional and genuinely warm and friendly The hotel was clean and the food for our 2 day catered meeting was absolutely delicious! All my coworkers raved about the food and service! Kudos to you all!

I recently stayed here due to an unexpected trip because of a family emergency The staff here at the hotel could not be any more welcoming, hospitable, and kind during my visit Front desk staff (standout Franklin), Samuel, housekeeper Maria, and Director of Sales, Jim Donovan! Not to forget the staff at The Coffee Bean and Bartender in the restaurant

The hotel is in a great location with easy access to restaurants, mall, grocery stores, gas stations It has it all! If you chose this hotel you will not be disappointed

Rude staff, dirty rooms, rotting bathroom wall Peeling paint, rust on the make up mirror, as well as the walls somehow, and rusty shower head The sink was the slowest drain I have ever seen

Room so dusty my husband had an asthma attack We checked out within 8 hours The manager was no where to be found to speak to even when we called back later in the day Would have loved a refund for that first night that we only stayed 8 hours for but I’m just glad we got out and didn’t get charged for the other nights we were supposed to stay Oh and if you enjoy privacy when you use a bathroom definitely don’t stay here because the bathroom doors are sliding barn doors with huge gaps! Absolutely awful hotel I went by the good reviews and was so disappointedEDIT: director of rooms Sal Perez reached out to me and offered a partial refund and seemed responsive to training the staff Thanks sal for working to make this right!

I would say when it came to booking this hotel I made the mistake of not realizing that it is not anywhere near the tourist areas and I had to drive quite a ways to get to the theme parks from here The hotel was a nice place it had very friendly staff, a very good free breakfast and free parking which is a win for me because I don’t believe in fees for parking My complaints for this place is 1

No daily housekeeping which I think is ridiculous 2 The dryer was running for an hour and my clothes were still wet 3 The elevator was slow and one day it was out of service completely 4 Breakfast service ends way too early on Mondays-Fridays like I am not a morning person and if I got nowhere to be I find it annoying to have to hustle down to the lobby before 9am to get my breakfast it would be nice if they had the service end at like 9:30 or 10 the entire week because that seems more reasonable Other than those 4 issues I had a good stay at this hotel, fair price got all the amenities I needed I saw they recently renovated this hotel so that is very nice to see

4th time staying here and still outstanding, fair pricing, clean rooms and appliances, bathroom was very clean and fully stocked As of 02/18/2022 the hotel still is not offering daily housekeeping service, but anything needed is just a phone call to the front desk away Large Breakfast buffet served daily, hotel pool is well maintained and complimented with nice landscaping

Will definitely be back next year!

Abdul Ishaq

Worst hotel I ever stayed in at this price point As soon as we got in our room we noticed that the sink in the bathroom was broken This was followed by a TV that did not work

We then tried to call the front desk but the phone just rang and rang no one answered We found a roach in the room the pool was dirty and equipment was rusted out The windows were filthy The ice machine on our floor did not work The rooms were run down Definitely skip this hotel and spend your money on something of better quality

As the owner of Corner House Photography, I can attest to the incredible work that goes into the creation of our couples’ vision for their big day The Alfond Inn truly takes their ideas and turns it into a realityOn your wedding day, you can expect to be in a gorgeous suite – many of our brides have incredible balcony views as well

Formal portraits can be completed both inside and outside, with the staff being incredibly accommodating in letting us roam the property for that ‘perfect backdrop’Most of our couples opt for an outdoor ceremony on the lawn, and I just love the architectural backdrop of the building behind that can be seen in our photos Reception space is just to die for – with gorgeous lighting, tablescapes, and a killer dance floorCorner House Photography truly cannot recommend this venue enough!

Stayed there mid-week July 6-8 All around nice place to stay in Winter Park Very fitting

Only issue was they had a A/C issue in the bar restaurant, but were addressingEveryone was friendly but what stood out to go from a 4 to a 5 was their valets They were friendly, prompt, and when I brought my elderly mother to stay in a my room for some of the day, they were quick to assist with putting her wheelchair in the car, and patient as we moved here in and out of the entrance Just little things like that make big differences

Anita Gil

Oh goodness! We had several issues!1) We requested a play pen for our daughter when we checked in at 3pm We brought it up to not only the valet gentleman but also the front desk womanBy 5 we had not received it yet so we requested again

Still Nothing but the same response: “ok, we will work on it for you Then after our event concluded we asked for an update only to find out that there were no more available-even though we requested it 10hrs earlier2) Food was decent but not worth the price that was requested3) Air in our room was poor and not cooling efficiently4) Our fridge was not cooling the way it should be I am a nursing mother and had breast milk in the fridge It was just at the required temperature The employee just unplugged it in and out Did not even offer us a new fridge5!! Our smoke alarm went off 4 times for zero reason! And the employee arrived 3hrs after the fact to check it!

The hotel itself is very nice, and the location is great The issue is that despite the price advertised for the room, and the front desk’s assurance that the price charged is in fact the final price, they’ll charge your card 3 days after you leave for additional “services” that you the customer cannot opt out of For example, when you arrive at the hotel, they prevent you from parking your own vehicle and require that you enroll in their mandatory valet service

That “service” charges your card $55 for each time they take your vehicle and park it in an unknown location and thereafter bring it back to the front The front desk represented to us that the advertised price online that was paid in full prior to our stay was the final price The valet themselves confirmed that Nevertheless, 72 hours after we checked out, they start making additional credit card charges It’s dishonest and scummy and any potential customers should be aware of the additional fees that this hotel is more than happy to hide and then charge for Won’t be staying there again

Darren Kirby

Four star hotel, but limited parking New hotel in downtown Orlando The hotel itself is nice and brand new

Would be hard pressed to find anything better in its price range However, it doesn’t really have its own parking They are cramming cars into some free space behind the hotel, and using a valet service to do that (at $26 or $28? a night) No self parking available at the hotel The valet has room to accommodate maybe 40 cars for a 200 room hotel? The rest are parked in nearby garages and spaces, adding to the time it may take to retrieve your car when they are busy This is reflective of the increasing issue with parking availability/pricing in downtown Orlando Not sure if this hotel will continue to be a selection for me

Helene Caseltine

The hotel is in a convenient downtown location The room was fine, very clean & quiet The bartender was very friendly

However, the food for dinner was awful! Who knew you can ruin a grilled cheese sandwich?? It was not the “4-Cheese Grilled Cheese on Sourdough”, but more a slice of American cheese slapped on a piece of white bread – for $12! (fries were good, tho)Plus, I thought I read that the hotel offered a complimentary “Continental Breakfast” – it was not You order off a menu with nothing complimentary for breakfast oh well, it was only one night!
