Orlando Hotels
There are hundreds of hotels concentrated in the Orlando area, and they come in all shapes, sizes and budgets. Virtually everything is family-friendly, and many are elaborately themed, with some very competitive deals at off-peak periods. With more hotel rooms than New York City, Orlando's accommodation offerings are vast and, thus, daunting. Generally speaking, the closer to Disney, the higher the price. Walt Disney World Resort itself boasts some of the best and most fun hotels anywhere, and they range from deluxe to budget in price.
The Orlando hotels below have been hand-picked by our guide author and are grouped into three pricing categories:
Luxury (over US$250)
Moderate (US$100 to US$250)
Cheap (up to US$100)
These Orlando hotel prices are the starting prices for a double room per night, excluding sales tax, lodging tax and breakfast, unless otherwise specified. The sales tax in Florida is 6.5%.
Hyatt Regency Grand Cypress

An 18-storey atrium welcomes honeymooners and families, screeching parrots and all. It is hard to imagine a more replete resort hotel, and there is a whole world to explore, from one of the best pools in the country to the comprehensive sports on offer to the destination restaurants.
Loews Portofino Bay Hotel at Universal Orlando Resort

This re-creation of an Italian fishing village is in the heart of Universal Orlando Resort, complete with fine restaurants and shops. The guest rooms are decorated with a Mediterranean theme, and there is a lively piazza with vintage Italian sports cars and scooters.
Disney's Animal Kingdom Lodge

This magnificently themed resort is a real slice of Africa, complete with an 8-hectare (21-acre) wildlife reserve out the windows of the 1,293 rooms in the six-storey luxury resort. Rooms are laid out in a horseshoe shape after a kraal African village design.
