Embassy Suites by Hilton Orlando International Dr Jamaican Ct

I stayed at this hotel for almost a week to attend a seminar. The front desk and all other staff were very friendly and accommodating. The room was very large and had 3 sinks! Everything was very clean. The hotel itself is a bit worn, however, they were undergoing a renovation during my stay. The workers weren’t in the way and they stopped working long before it was time to head to bed. The breakfast was more than adequate and tasty. The only negative to this hotel was that my room faced the highway and it was pretty difficult to sleep with all of the road noise. You can’t really blame the hotel for this so I didn’t take a star off for this. Knowing this — request a room on one of the other 2 sides of the hotel so that you can get a good night’s rest!

The front desk staff is horrible however the rooms were great. Overall clean however we had to ask for new pillow covers because they smelled pretty bad. We stayed for 2 nights and I would definitely come back. You can’t expect a 5 star experience when you’re paying 3 star prices. I loved the fact they had a sink outside the bathroom that had a sink as well. It’s great so 2 people can be getting ready at the same time. The rooms were a great size. There’s a tv in the bed area and also a tv in the entrance area with a sofa bed couch with a door to both rooms so you don’t have to bother anyone with noise from the tv.
The location is by far the best I’ve experienced in the hotels in Orlando. Right in the middle of it all, the restaurants, the people, the parks. That street is always bustling no matter the time. I loved it.

The hotel was in current renovation during my stay (February 12 – 14) which they will continue for a couple few months (est. May 2016). In my opinion, this hotel is catered to executive corporations or business meetings. The suites are small and intimate and provide a living area that is great to work in. The furnishing is modern and very gray-​scale.
Pros:
1) Right next to Universal Studios.
2) Walking distance to night club Mango’s Café and Ripley’s Believe it or Not Museum.
3) Walking distance from restaurants and gift stores.
4) Offers breakfast at adequate times (up until 10:30 am on weekends), a bar, indoor/​outdoor pool, fitness center, and shuttle service.
5) The room was very clean and the hotel, overall, was clean.
Cons:
1) The shuttle service that takes you to Universal Studios area is absolutely terrible. The hotel guests that visited the parks that day were stuck in the ice-​cold weather for an hour and a half waiting for the shuttle to take us back to the hotel. Recommend taking a ride-​share or spend the extra dollars for a taxi.
2) The bar closes extremely early. You won’t expect to find it open after 11pm even on the weekends.
3) The location of some of the rooms are next to the highway, so you will hear cars passing by as you try and sleep.
The experience overall was great. The service of some of the receptionists, such as Maria, were nice and helpful. I would not recommend to a big family, but if you are trying to book a large corporations, this is definitely the place you want to book.
Overall, satisfied, but not a WOW factor.

I don’t know why this hotel only has a 3 star rating. We came for the weekend and we’ve had a fabulous stay. Perfectly located on International Drive, this hotel has free parking, tons of eateries surrounding it, and highways to the parks are in close proximity. There was a total of 6 of us in the room. We slept comfortably as the room came with 2 queen size beds and a sofa bed. The bathroom could be a little bigger but aside from that, we have no complaints. From free made-​to-​order breakfast every morning to free drinks from 5−7pm daily, these perks outweigh any cons this hotel may have. We are definitely staying here again next time.

I do like this place. It’s clean. The food is great for breakfast. I love the breakfast bar with homemade omelettes. It is a great value.

This place was great. Price was good and they have a free happy hour from 5:30 — 7:30. They give you free drinks and free snacks. You can’t beat that. My room was nice and clean. I also received a code so that I could get any snack from the vending machine free. I will stay here again!

This place is just not up to par. In Orlando on business, the restaurant is basically non-​functioning. There is no waiter service. The bartender has to service the dining room. Not that you would want to eat there because it is way too dark and damp and cold from the running waterfalls that smell moldy. After debating the idea of eating in a damp cold cave I went for room service.
The «fitness center» was three machines moved to a little section by the pool. I understand it is under renovation but no one apparently checked to see that the electricity it was plugged into worked. Two of three machines didn’t work (third machine, ellyptical, doesn’t use electricity). How do you have a hotel this size and a conference of this many people in town and not have a working fitness area? How do you set up a faux fitness room and not check your equipment works? After I asked about it they sent an engineer to try and fix it. Later in the day they took their handwritten «Fitness Center» sign down and a note that it was out of order. Uh huh. Lame. I always run when I travel for work and would never choose a hotel that didn’t have a fitness center. Needless to say, the lack of exercise is not helping my mood in writing this review.
They charge $ 3 for a 16 oz bottle of water. Yes for one pint of water they charge the same as what it would cost for a case of Nestle water. I complained about that since there is no gift shop (apparently closed as well — they are turning it into a café (oh ya think?) or anywhere to buy water and they gave me a bottle for free.
The positives are that the room is nice and the room service people are super nice and sweet. The food I had was quite good. The pizza was good and the turkey sandwich was better than I expected.
The front desk people are nice. Even though they can’t fix their electricity they were nice about it. Room has a microwave and frig. The free hot breakfast is nice.
So I give an extra star for nice people and a nice room but I will definitely not stay here again and this has soured me on Embassy Suites in general. I am not likely to choose this hotel for future business trips in any city.

A well-​priced mid-​service hotel with a location incredibly close to Universal Orlando and just the right balance of amenities, I don’t believe this Embassy Suites location deserves the middling rating it gets on this site.
We stayed three nights here as part of the Universal Studios component of a week-​long Orlando theme park vacation. Though the hotel is definitely located in an older structure, the rooms felt modernized and renovated. Though rooms have a similar layout and set of in-​room features as other suite-​style hotels such as Hyatt Place, they are differentiated here by the inclusion of a corridor that divides the living space into two separate rooms. I believe this would be fantastic for larger groups or families sharing a room, as the couch in the living space appeared to fold out into a bed (Disclaimer: Though I’ve used similar couchbeds at other hotels, I didn’t test this out at this property).
Our room contained a single king-​sized bed, which was absolutely oversized and ridiculously comfortable. Be warned — you might have a hard time getting up and getting to the parks on time!
For Universal Orlando visitors, a Universal Orlando representative occupies a kiosk in-​hotel and assisted us with booking a free shuttle bus to the park. I suspect they may be able to assist with more complicated park-​related matters as well, but we did not try this.
Probably my only two (minor) complaints would be incredibly slow and spotty wireless Internet, which unfortunately seems to be the norm rather than the exception at hotels. My phone would regularly be kicked off back to 3G service in my room. At least it was free. I thought that both Disney and Universal offered much higher quality wi-​fi at their parks. My girlfriend and I thought the shower was hard to enter as well, as there was no way to turn it on without getting blasted with cold water first. However, both of these complaints are trivial in the scope of a complete vacation experience and do not mar my recommendation of this property.

We try to stay at the Embassy suites when we travel. This hotel was in a good location near lots of restaurants and shopping. Breakfast was good, the evening cocktail reception was also very nice. The room was clean overall we enjoyed it

I prefer to stay in the Embassy Suites while on business or vacation. This was my first time staying at this location in Orlando. It was central to a lot of restaurants, theme parks, water parks and the Eye of Orlando. The location is perfect and as always, the Embassy Suites rooms were nice and spacious. I would definitely suggest staying here while vacationing. The breakfast is great — real bacon, etc, and the cooked to order omelets are great. Enjoy rum punch, wine or beer for free in the evening reception.

Our stay here while on vacation was great. The rooms were clean spacious and comfortable. The staff was very friendly and accommodated all our needs. At breakfast they do not serve turkey sausage when I asked. The young lady was so kind to go in the kitchen and prepared sausage for me without my asking. Thank you to the entire staff for making our stay wonderful!

This hotel is located right off of International Drive. It is walking distance from Walgreens, Kobe Steakhouse, Red Robin, LongHorn Steakhouse, Cold Stone Creamery, Uno Pizzeria & Grill and many other restaurants. It is a very convenient location. The area gets very busy because of all of the restaurants but I did not experience heavy traffic while I was there (Monday through Thursday).
The hotel itself is nice. A little outdated but still nice. They have an indoor/​outdoor pool, hot tub, fitness center, rental car office and theme park ticket office. These are all located inside the hotel.
The free breakfast and evening reception snacks (5:30pm-7:30pm) are a nice option but the breakfast was just okay. The omelettes were good but the pancakes, waffles and french toast were not. They were very chewy — as if they has been frozen for a long time and then microwaved. The reception snacks are just that, snacks. And be prepared to see Monday’s snacks recycled on Tuesday and then again on Wednesday and then again on Thursday. If you take a look at my pictures you will see what I mean.
As far as room service goes, they made my bed but were very stingy about the toiletries. The lotion and soap that were in my room when I arrived on Monday evening, were the only ones I had for the entire week.
The Wifi is also VERY slow. I ended up having to use my own Hotspot.

These place is a «classy» Embassy Suites with fabulous modern architecture. The lobby is beautiful. We participated in a small day conference in this hotel. The parking lot is a pain (super big), the meeting rooms were ICE cold but the building itself is a glorious place. We were served well – including a delicious hot breakfast plus pastries. I did not experience rooms or an overnight stay but would come back without hesitation. It does have a «noisy» feel (water fountains, clanking silverware) so would not be great for someone seeking «peace». It is also extremely convenient to local restaurants (Pizzeria Uno especially).

Loved it! Front desk is super helpful! I lost my key numerous times and they were happy to take care of it for me. Also I wanted to relocate and they were fine with that as well! Breakfast was amazing!!!

A great place to stay, very nice inside, free huge breakfast, free happy hour, helpful staff, we had a convention here and it was just perfect, over 125 people, recommend

I love this hotel. I have seen a lot of negative things said and I just don’t agree. Maybe it’s because I am partial to Embassy suites to start with.
Our room was so big and spacious. It was also spotless. We stayed in a 2 room suite at the corner of the hotel. It was beautiful. The atrium is beautiful with the fountains by the elevators and the bar and seating areas and the pools and fountains that surround it. One of the big complaints I read was the décor is outdated. This I can agree with but the hotel is so clean and sharp looking that I cant down the décor. The staff is very helpful and friendly
If you’ve never stayed at Embassy before they have FREE HAPPY HOUR. YES!!! FREE!!! Which is awesome. The breakfast is also free and also offers a very nice spread. Omelets cooked to order, cereals, baked goods, eggs, bacon and sausage.
There a nice half outdoor indoor pool which is cool feature. The gym is small but will serve its purpose. There is also a nice little shop where you can purchase. anything you may have left at home. IN addition there is also a Avis on site and this property offers a free shuttle to Universal Studios. HUGE PLUSSSS.
Well I don’t think I can say anything else here. Cant say enough about this property. Embassy suties really gives you a bang for the buck. You cant get all these ammenities a Best Western or a Ramada: P

Be careful of the gift store. I wrote my christmas cards during some down time at a conference.
A forever stamp is currently 46 cents. The shop wanted to charge an additional 50 cents PER STAMP.
This gift shop is a major rip off and exploits hotel guests.
No, I didnt buy stamps n will send em off when I return home

Standard Embassy Suite. You can look forward to a few things.
1. Manager’s Receiption every evening means free drinks at the bar from 5−7pm
2. Cook to Order breakfast in the AM — mmmmmm Omelets.
I was here on vacation and I like the on property laundry facility. Coin operated machines on the 8^th floor.
Breakfast will be busy. Since so many are here to visit the theme parks, a lot of folks will be in line very early in the AM to get their breakfast and hit the parks early. So be prepared for a long line in the AM.
There is also a heated pool on the property should you need a swim.

I am a Hilton Diamond member, so I stay at Hilton properties a lot… this hotel was not quite what I expected. The reception at the lobby was nice and prompt. The GM sent me cookies, chips and water along with a welcome letter. That was nice, but then… here are my complaints.
I used the gym four times. After the first time, I noticed they were not sanitizing wipes, so I went to the front desk to let them know. Second time at the gym, no wipes again. I went to the front desk to let them know. Third and fourth times… I had to BUY my own wipes and bring them with me. Also, at 6AM, I noticed the security guard come into the gym and started working out… What’s up with that??? Was he coming in? Was he ending his shift? I did see him at 6:45AM at the front desk, so if he was working out during his shift, that is not right !!
The Manager’s reception is a joke. Just popcorn and nuts for snacks… Other Embassy suites offer Chips, cookies, hot appetizers, etc… this one… NOTHING but nuts…
The breakfast buffet was average… many of the silverware had food stains or water stains on them.
The room itself was OK, nothing to write home about, but the carpet in my room was stained and seemed dirty. Stain on the closet doors.
Overall a hotel not to come back to…

Not a bad Embassy Suites. Location is good [pretty close to the theme parks], staff is nice, and there’s free wifi!!!
I slept on the pull out bed [not too comfy… seems less comfy than other ones], but the real beds are comfortable. No trouble at all. Complimentary breakfast doesn’t hurt, either. Though the line can get a bit long, they try to serve food on two sides of the eating area [although not many people go to the more obscure side] when there are too many people. Happy hour isn’t greeeeat, but who am I to complain? Free snacks and drinks make for a very happy Amy: P
One thing, though — the housekeeping staff come at random hours. I’m used to leaving Embassy Suites in the morning and coming back in the afternoon to find my place clean. At this one, however, sometimes I would come back to a clean room [with fresh towels], and other times, I would come back after walking around all day to the room I left earlier. And then they would come knocking at 5:30ish, after my family&I were already comfortable, and we would just set out for an early dinner. Eh.
