Top-rated hotels in Orlando
Fifteen of Orlando's best-supported hotels, all rated 4 or 5 star and scored 4.5 or higher out of 5 by verified guests. Park resorts, International Drive towers and Grande Lakes addresses sit side by side, so you can pick by what you plan to do rather than by rating alone.
Staying in Orlando
Orlando is a Florida city built around its theme parks, and most of the hotels on this shortlist sit inside or beside them. Loews Royal Pacific Resort at Universal Orlando Resort holds a Hollywood Way address near the other park. The rest spread across the city's hotel corridors: Rosen Shingle Creek and Hyatt Regency Orlando on Universal Boulevard and International Drive, Hyatt Regency Grand Cypress on Grand Cypress Boulevard, and The Ritz Carlton Orlando Grande Lakes and JW Marriott Orlando Grande Lakes on Central Florida Parkway. Couples and families tend to gravitate to the park resorts, where the day starts at the gate; the Grande Lakes and International Drive hotels suit business travellers and short breaks that mix meetings with the parks.

4401 Floridian Way
Why stay hereGrand Floridian pairs a 5-star rating with 4.7 out of 5 from 14556 reviews, placing it among Orlando's most consistently praised addresses.
