Clarion Inn & Suites Across From Universal Orlando Resort

John at the front desk was very funny and welcoming upon arrival and very informative on how to get to our room. He called shortly after to make sure we made it safe, which i thought was very nice of him as we did come in pretty late in the night. We were explained everything to thoroughly on wifi and what was and was not available. The room was up to our standards since we just needed a place to sleep as we were at the park majority of the time. It was so close to the park and near all your breakfast needs ( Dennys, Waffle House, IHOP). Parking was right in front of our room or close by where you can see. There are only 2 floors so be mindful if you luggage , heavy items. They offer a shuttle which is great . You have to go the morning of and request . We opted not to because of the time is comes back and we like to stay till the very end at closing so we parked at the theme park . OVERALL it was not a bad stay and i would stay again

The hotel is very large and offers an Indian restaurant and cafe, which is great if you love Indian food. The room was really nice, with two separate rooms, providing extra space. The pool area was beautiful, and there’s a small heated pool, which was a pleasant surprise. The hotel also has parking, which is a big plus. The reception staff were friendly and helpful, and the location is convenient, with Universal Park only a short Uber ride away.

I have stayed several times at this little gem of a place, it location is fantasic, the staff are always vert helpuful and happy to help with any requests, okay it doesnt have all fancities of some of the bigger places, but for me I do not need these, you come to Orlando for the sun, the activities, and fun therefore you really do not spend any time in your room other than to sleep and wash, to that end I love this place, the pool is clean and is always quiet, if you want a day just to be lazy its perfect, parking is free which is teh added bonus in my mind, and as i said with the location being only a 15-20 minute walk to Universal you save on any parking costs there, finally dont waste your money on anywhere else this wee place will meet your requirements and leave you feeling appreciated and ready to book again.

The location is excellent. It is a 20-minute walk to City Walk from the hotel. Several restaurants, fast food, and Walgreens are within walking distance but not evident from the hotel. They offer a shuttle service, but we did not use it. There is no resort fee. There were minor issues with the room: the security latch was not on the door, and the in-room phone did not work (they offered to send someone up to fix it, and I declined). A fridge in your room and a microwave are available by the fitness center. There is an outdoor pool. The staff was friendly and helpful.

Fairly basic hotel, it was goold location to Universal, the shuttle bus was ok but the times were not the best and quite often booked, but you can get an Uber $7 and $12 during the day, night tine expect to pay crazy prices, but you can easily walk between the park and the hotel takes about 15 mins and is safe as there is an over road bridge so you are not dodging the crazy cars on the roads. Rooms are ok and did the job. Pool was the nice, and refreshing after a hot day in the parks. Breakfast was basic and cheap - ok
