Choosing Orlando Hotels
There are a countless number of Orlando hotels near the Disney theme park area which can make picking a place to stay during a vacation that much more challenging. Visitors can stay at the most elegant resorts or can find a room that costs next to nothing and is likely worth the same. The largest decision for most people visiting our neck of the woods in Florida is whether to stay inside the Disney theme park or at a place outside the official gates.
Certain guests enjoy the full Disney experience and want to ensure their hotel is also inside the theme park. After all the time it takes to make it to Orlando hotels it is important to keep in mind it meets all your expectations. Therefore we attempt to keep as many resorts available as possible inside Disney World. Be forewarned that it usually costs more when staying in theme parks. Such is true of the Maingate West Resort Hotel at Disney World. Some guests find this worth the expense, while others rather save a few hundred dollars. However, for those looking for the full Walt Disney World experience there is no other way to travel here.
Other visitors prefer to stay at Orlando hotels just outside the main gates of Disney World or rather stay at a property closer to the Universal theme park. Such guests might want to consider a few of the vacation homes available, as it is often only slightly cheaper to reserve a hotel room. The Encantada Resort is one such complex with brand new town homes located in Kissimmee, the actual city of Disney World.
The best part of choosing amongst the many Orlando hotels near Disney World is that for the most part visitors can’t go wrong. The caveat to that is of course first making certain that your bookings are going through a reputable website. We also suggest looking at plenty of pictures of the hotel or home before making any decision. If you have any other suggestions on picking a place to stay in Orlando please feel free to add them in the comments section below.
