Renaissance Orlando Resort at Seaworld

B Gil

I attended a conference at the Renaissance Orlando. It took three phone calls and two visits to the front desk to find my reservation. I had called ahead of time to check if I was getting one king bed or two queens and they assured me it was two queens which was important because three of us were sharing a room. When we arrived in our room, we immediately see one king size bed and a sofa. Three adults can't sleep in one king size bed and the sofa bed was very thin and uncomfortable. We called the front desk and they said they were out of queen rooms and they had given me a suite. I didn't care to have a suite because the only thing I was using the room for was sleeping and we didn't have enough beds to sleep. The room was nice and pretty and would have been perfect if it were only myself. It had beautiful wrap around windows; however, the view was into a parking lot. The room would not cool. We turned down the thermostat but it stayed above 74 degrees. The room had high ceilings and I think that impacted how quickly and efficiently the room cooled. We called the front desk and they sent someone up. The worker said it was working; however, it never cooled. Sleeping in a room with not enough beds and being hot was not a great combination but the overall hotel was very nice.

This hotel is not for Disney World or Universal Studios. The shuttle schedule benefits only Sea World, not the other two. rSo for me, the location I give 1 star for not close or convenient for two most popular brands parks. The room is alright, but with small 43 inches LCD old LG TV. The view is terrible, you can't see anything. No fireworks from disney or anything. The pool view is partical view and the pool is just so so, I won't bother to use. The room internet speed is slow, sometime disconnected by itself. And the shelve door always gave a shaking sound bothering me a lot. The neighbor, often making noise and drives me crazy. The isolation of sound is poor for this hotel. I have no clue what the hell they doing next door. The big plus is the big mirror in living room, easier for me to check myself. And the chair with wheels that I can easilly move around while sitting. Sofa is not facing TV, so pretty useless, I will have to lie in bed for watching TV. No super good food around here, and you have to either use uber going anywhere else for food or use doordash order food. On site food price is ridiculous. The given two alcohol is useless for me as a non alcoholic. And they charge that on resort fee and taxes. I don't have a car otherwise I need pay for parking as well. The layout inside the hotel is pretty much Luxor to me. It's an alright hotel, but I guess I booked the wrong hotel for my trip. Update: It doesn’t even have hair dryer in the room, and I had to call room service to get one. The guy working at bell service is a guy hating his job. No words and shitty attitude.

Amazing resort in a great location! The hotel has a very calm and peaceful vibe with the atrium! This is the second time I have stayed here and both experiences have been great. The rooms that have an interior view look out onto the atrium. The rooms have a lot of space and the bathroom even has 2 vanity's which is great! The rooms are always clean and the cleaning staff is very nice and helpful. The pool is nice and has lots of seating. There are multiple very good restaurants and the breakfast buffet even though expensive is amazing! The staff is all very friendly and goes above and beyond to make your experience great!

The hotel lobby was nice, all service was attentive, welcoming and friendly. We especially appreciated Doug and Tiffany at the two bars in the lobby, they had great recommendations and made us feel at home. The hotel room was spacious. Bed was slightly uncomfortable, but it’s a hotel room. It was quiet, even though we were close to the elevator. There was also a wedding going on, which wasn’t disruptive to anyone else. The breakfast buffet was excellent. Everything was fresh and it had a large variety, my husband only commented that he wished the biscuits had been warm. For anyone, you know this is in one of the most populated highway areas of Orlando so of course, driving sucked, we went to Aquatica, which I do not recommend it because as awful. Our host hotel stay was nice, we enjoyed the people and the food. The pool area was comfortable and not too overcrowded. The bar was welcoming and friendly.

This hotel was great! The rooms are quite spacious and the amenities are awesome. The room service was easy to order, prompt, and delicious. Parking was a breeze and the staff was polite and timely in responding to any questions I had over the app. I wish the tub in our room had been cleaner and I wish the water park was better maintained, it had clearly seen better days and appeared unclean in some areas. The regular pool was absolutely phenomenal and the proximity to SeaWorld was a plus.
