2-Star Hotels in Orlando

The hotel is renovated and accommodations were fine and it is one of the better quality hotel choices in the busy and very touristy Orlando center. Also, breakfast selection was surprisingly good and plentiful for the typical selection for the Holiday Inn Express brand. The reasons for not giving the hotel 5 stars are below: 1) the bathroom sink in the room was clogged upon check in. 2) guests were allowed to consume alcohol and to smoke heavily in the pool area right next to many small children and other guests who did not appreciate being exposed to second hand smoke. As a public health policy, smoking should only be allowed in remote designated areas and not in the pool ares which is full of small children. 3) At times there was no staff at the reception and the staff that I did communicate with either spoke very poor English (or none at all, the assumption was that everyone should be speaking Spanish) or appeared to be genuinely disinterested and didn't pay attention to customers' concerns.

Much better than 1st time. Hotel is under remodel.. They just finished their pool and it looks great.. They're working on the roof. The rooms still need some work. But they are coming a long way. Price is right. There is a deposit which is I believe $50. You do get it back and roughly about 7 to 10 days depending on your credit card. It is not pet friendly unless you have a service dog. Hotel is right before the Orlando health Doctor Phillips. Rooms come with a microwave and a Mini refrigerator. They do serve a breakfast that you must eat out front. You cannot take it back to your room. All their handicapped rooms or on the 1st floor.

It was an okay stay I rate it 3 stars because most of the place was not nice looking. Door had a chunk missing and the walls where broken and badly painted.

I booked 3 rooms for my family on vacation to Universal. I guess we got what we paid for... The so called ”front desk” employee, Marilyn, came across very abrasive and she announced our room numbers very loudly in front of everyone standing in the lobby. That is an unsafe practice. Period. When we finally got checked in, and was headed to our car to get our bags, 3 police cars with their lights on pulled up to the front lobby very fast and got into a loud and heated argument with one of the guests who appeared to be on drugs. Ironically, the entire parking lot smelled strongly of ********* which was coming from several of the rooms. The minute we walked into our rooms and turned on the lights, the roaches scattered. I have pictures to prove it. The rooms smelled terrible and one of them had a very strong smell of cigarettes. We had one room that the toilette handle had completely fallen off and was laying on the floor. My 19 year old daughter, was trying to shut the curtains in her room and some random ”creepy” man passing by, who also appeared to be on drugs, saw her trying to shut the curtains, and stopped and starred at her in the window. She got scared. In general, this place was nasty and the clientele was definitely not a safe place for families. We took our bags back to our car, I went back to the front desk. I showed Marilyn the roach pics and handed her the broken toilet handle and told her we could not stomach staying there and wanted a refund. She actually apologized and told me I would get a full refund. I asked for a receipt or confirmation of the refund and she said she couldn't give me anything as proof but that it would be processed in a week. As it turns out, I did NOT get a full refund as promised (big surprise). They charged me for 1 full night for each room. I can promise you, the roaches touched more in the rooms than we did. Pretty sure it won't do any good to call this hotel and speak to someone there but I will be reaching out to the corporate headquarters. Doubt I'll get my money back. Thankfully. we found some available rooms at the Comfort Inn which was right beside the Clarion. The Comfort Inn was much much safer and cleaner. There's also a Marriott and Embassy Suites right beside the Clarion as well. PLEASE DO NOT STAY AT THIS CLARION!!!

🚗 Transportation: The transportation is very convenient! It’s about 10 minutes away from Universal Studios for $8, and Disney is a little farther away for about $20, 20 minutes. 🧹Sanitation: very clean, and told the front desk to help us clean every day 🍃Environment: The hotel environment is very nice, the room is very big! The bed is also very comfortable 🔔Service: The front desk service is very good👍I get breakfast from the front desk on time every day🥣 This hotel is really cost-effective

I had the pleasure of meeting a great host today. He checked me in with a smile and told me to grab breakfast while I waited for the room. He also made sure when we had a problem with the room that everything was made better. I appreciate people that go above and beyond for their guests. We felt at home here. I would recommend this hotel to family and friends. Great location and caring staff. Everyone says hello and are ready to help. Putting a view from the room in review.

Suitable for children, parking is free, breakfast is slightly worse, no meat patties or sausages, both dishes are scrambled eggs, others are similar. Quality hotel rooms are clean and odor free The bathroom is clean and tidy. The Tampa Orange County and Universal Orlando Studios, which have stayed at Quality Chain Hotel, feel good and the quality of the hotel is stable and satisfactory.

We were in Orlando for the birth of our first grandchild. Had arrived in middle of the night at the hospital and decided to get a room within walking distance of Winnie Palmer Hospital. Marlena (?) at the front desk was warm and friendly and gave us a beautiful suite along with a Coke and a water as we were in the Hilton club. The attendant at breakfast (from Brazil) was sweet, friendly and attentive. Loved our pillows too! Our stay was absolutely delightful!

Hotel location is very good! Breakfast did not eat do not know (see the restaurant feels general) our room type can not be an extra bed (but queen room enough to sleep four people (two big beds), the hotel is full of parking! Hotel location is really really good!!

This is a nice hotel. It’s new, it’s fresh and modern. It is on the top floors of the Truist building. As others stated, the elevator can be slow at times, so be mindful of that and be patient. The noise from the highway wasn’t too bad, but there is a train that runs right next to the hotel. If you are a light sleeper, this could be problematic. BUT, they give you earplugs. The Sky Bar seems to be the highlight of the hotel. There are lots of non hotel guests visiting the Sky Bar to enjoy the view and cocktails. Although the Sky Bar is a nice vibe, the servers (in the lounge areas) were not attentive at all! I sat outside on the terrace for at least 45 minutes before anyone acknowledged my presence. I had to actually flag over a server once I saw that she served a few others who had arrived after I sat down. This happened again the second time that I visited the Sky Bar (sitting in the lounge area). There were not a lot of people there during the day, so they clearly saw me sitting! Seriously…? On a positive note, I later sat at the “interior” bar and Nate, was a joy! He was super attentive, and ensured that my time spent at the bar was special.
