I think the hotel is ok.....nothing plush about it. Rooms are kinda small. It was clean and had super nice employees. However, the location was absolutely fabulous. There were so many places you could walk to. International Drive is a great place to stay. And the free breakfast was one of the best I have had at a freebie hotel... More

I have stayed at several of Embassy's Properties in Orlando before and they have all disappointed me. This one on the other hand was fantasticl!

First, love the username! “HiltonHotelFan”… I’m right there with you! Love the pics too! You must have stayed at a few Embassy’s to notice some of our finer points like the larger suite size and the wet bar. We are lucky to have a footprint that has allowed for a larger suite. I love that fact that there are three... More

We stayed in this hotel early December 2011 and had a great stay! Rooms were large and comfortable if slightly dated. The curtains closing problem mentioned by other reviewers can be overcome by moving furniture but really is an issue which needs to be attended to by the management. Breakfast was great and the nightly happy hour was another bonus... More

Location is key when picking a hotel. Interesting fact, when this hotel was build there wasn’t much in the area of South International Drive; now it’s the hub of our visitor district. It helps that the Convention Center has grown to one of the largest in the world and a few new neighbors (Sea World and Universal Studios) soon followed... More

We took our daughter and all our family (8 plus a baby) to Embassy Suites to celebrate her 30th. We rented two suites. Arrived at 4 for hot tub time (not very hot) and integrated it with the manager's reception by ordering drinks in plastic cups and transferring them to fun plastic themed goblets. The ladies wore black dresses with... More

The only problem is my invite must have been lost in the mail. Sounds like a fun party! Unfortunately, some guests don't make the short trip downtown to experience some of the culture of Orlando! If you get the opportunity, check out a game or show at Amway; there is absolutely not an arena in the country like it! Thanks... More

We stayed at the Embassy Suites on International Drive over Christmas and New Year and have nothing to fault about the place. Upon arrival we were made to feel welcome and immediately given the keys to our room, which we found to be much better than anticipated. In the bedroom area there were two very comfortable double beds, with washbasin... More

Thank you so much for posting this amazing review! I love that you took the time to detail so much about the hotel. I personally enjoy TripAdvisor for the reviews, but even more so the great tips you can get from other travelers. I have a feeling you will get a bunch of "thumbs up" on this one! Thank you... More

We chose Embassy Suites Hotel in Orlando because of the good experiences we've had with Embassy Suites in the past. However, we chose this particular hotel because of the advertised scheduled free shuttle to Disney and Universal attractions. Because we had the opportunity to use the free shuttles at previous Embassy Suites we had stayed at, we made the mistake... More

Friendly Staff, great location on International drive. Except for going to events, we never had to drive anywhere. Tremendous selection of Restaurants, Bars, and other shops, all within walking distance. There are two Embassy Suites locations on International Drive, make sure you book this location!

Great review! Love it! My grandfather was a proud Gamecock and would have been right there partying with you! What a great game too!
