Hampton Inn – Orlando S Of Universal Studios

It’s ok, I had been in some other Hampton in’s better than this one, this one here definetely needs some attention.
Elevator smell cigarette, rooms isn’t renovate, bed is a little harder compare with other ones.

Got a room here for a couple nights while we went to universal. The room itself was clean however they put us in a handicap room without warning (the shower stinks in handicap rooms). I left early that morning and wanted to take a nap, shortly after falling asleep kids starting running up and down the hallways. This is when I found out the rest of the floor was filled with an 8^th grade band so napping was not a option. The pool is very basic with limited seating so get there early if it’s nice out, breakfast was pretty bad beyond the fresh fruit. The shuttle they have is a nightmare to deal with I used it once out of six trips to the parks (the hotel is so close to universal über is 5.50 parking at the park is 20 and the cabs charge a lot). Long story short don’t stay here unless you have to. Embassy suits is what I prefer but Fairfield is nice just as close to the parks and in a plaza with lots of dinning options.

This is not a new or extravagant hotel by any means, but the hotel was clean, as was our room. About a half hour before arriving, we called to request that a crib be put in our room. To our surprise and delight, the crib was actually in the room! We had requested a crib at another Hilton affiliated hotel on a different occasion hours before our arrival and they failed to deliver it. It then took several more hours to get it. Anyway, not only did the Hampton Inn deliver the crib promptly, but they also had a baby blanket.
As I said previously, our room was clean. One day we kept the «Do Not Disturb» sign on the door, but the Housekeeper left a bag with towels, shampoo, soap, and lotion outside of our door. That was a nice surprise.
The sink in the room was leaking and I notified the Front Desk. Again, the staff was very prompt and arrived within 5 – 10 minutes to fix the problem.
The Customer Service I experienced here really sets this hotel apart from the others. I was greeted with smiles. Every staff member I came into contact with was very friendly and helpful.
If you’re planning to use the Shuttle to go to Disney, make sure you leave with plenty of time to spare because the Shuttle stops at 4 other hotels. It takes about an hour to get to Epcot. The Shuttle is a contracted service and does not belong to the hotel. The company used is STS.

Very typical Hampton Inn that hasn’t had the chain-​wide rennovations yet. The location is kind of weird, being next to some older structures that may have been being rehabbed or demolished. The hotel is a little hard to get to because of the road construction in the area.
Otherwise, the location is very close and easy access to Universal Studios, International Drive, and the Orlando Eye. There is a 7 – 11 mini-​mart very close by – walking distance if you are really desperate.
That being said, we had a nice stay. The staff was friendly and helpful and the room was clean. Breakfast was typical Hampton Inn, which is pretty good but not at all memorable.

Older building unfortunately not the best cleanliness and need updating. The bed was somewhat comfortable. I noticed stains on the sheets and Christian (employee) accommodated us by changing them.
At 1:30am I noticed a bug above my bed, on the ceiling that looked a lot like a cockroach. I was told by Kelly (manager) it was a Palmetto bug. Either way it was a rude awakening. Upon request we were moved to a different room which was cleaner.
Breakfast was ok but nothing to write home about except for the good coffee.
Wont return to any Hampton Inns

I stayed at this hotel back in early March to take my 11 year old to Universal. Had a great stay, but typical of an 11 year old, he left his brand new shoes under the luggage rack. We didn’t realize it until we arrived home. I called a couple of times the next day, but after several days I finally got an answer that no shoes were found.
Now, most hotels would end it there, apologize to the customer and move on. I spoke to Kellie, the hotel manager. She took the time to look into the incident and call me back. Although they still couldn’t find the shoes, Kellie asked the price of the shoes, and took the time to send me a prepaid gift card for the amount. Now while this incident to Hampton Inn and Kellie is probably a normal day for them, this, along with other positive experiences I’ve had with them, has made me a loyal customer to the brand. Well done Hampton Inn.

We came a little after 12 and we were told no early check in because they were full to capacity. We went and had lunch and Went back around 1:30 and were allowed to check in before 3. The rooms appear clean and smell nice. We picked this hotel because they are right next door to the event venue and we can walk there. The beds are comfortable. There is a microwave and mini fridge as well a a second sink outside of the bathroom. Of course they have the TV… Etc etc. They have charger ports for phone and things that need charging. The toilet had a leaking issue and water was all over the bathroom floor. A maintenance guy came to fix it within five minutes but told me that it could not be fixed without shutting down the whole wing. The front desk then called to ask if we needed anything but only offered extra towels. My wife and I called later to request a new room and we were quickly accommodated. The new room had no issues. Overall the stay was good.

I have stayed at this property a few times, and am satisfied. We did have an unusual problem on our last stay, when the housekeeper left the room door open, and we discovered it when we arrived late in the evening. Luckily nothing was missing. Just a little reminder to never leave valuables in the room, I guess. I am certain that the problem was brought to the attention of the careless employee. I guess this could happen anywhere, so it won’t stop me from returning in the future.
This hotel is convienently located, right across the street from Wet N Wild, and very close to Universal. So many restaurants, large outlet mall, Skyventure indoor sky diving, and Fun Spot Amusement park are RIGHT THERE.

The bedding was comfortable and the location was great. Breakfast was okay… it’s no homewood suites. Check in was quick and easy… housekeeping did not change the sheets or provide enough wash clothes. Fridge and microwave in the room were an added benefit

Nice staff. Breakfast was nice. Just needed a safe comfortable place for a business trip. Hampton inn doesn’t disappoint.

Very happy with this hotel. Close to everything you need while in Orlando for a quick weekend. Was given a nice corner room. Clean and friendly all the way around. Will definitely return when in the area again!

Just like the previous review, I found this place on Travelzoo, but for about $ 60 a night including taxes. The staff was very helpful and friendly. I chose this hotel for the free breakfast, wi-​fi and a complimentary shuttle that runs once in the morning to Universal Studios. The rooms are decent and clean enough if all you are looking for is a place to sleep when you are visiting for theme parks. Also, the hotel is a short walk away from a mini-​golf place and Denny’s and the I-​Shuttle which are all located on International Drive.
At the time when I visited with two other friends, the hotel was undergoing a renovation. It will look great if I were to ever visit again. I gave this hotel 5 stars because I came here the weekend before Hurricane Sandy hit New York. When I was stranded in Orlando for an extra four days, the hotel staff was kind enough to give me an extension of my stay for four nights at the same rate I got at Travelzoo.

Found this place thru Travelzoo for under $ 50 a nite. What a deal! No parking or resort fees and super friendly staff. Very decent selection for breakfast but not very yummy. Good enough to get you started. The rooms were a bit small and bathrooms cramped but after an exhausting day out at the parks, who cares? The bed was comfortable and rooms were very clean. There are limited shuttles to Disney and Universal (complimentary) but we did not take advantage of them. It was about a 20 minute drive to Disney and a 5 minute drive to Universal. Would recommend this hotel as it is very close to Int’l Drive where there are plenty of shops and restaurants.
