Frommer's "An artistic Bohemian-inspired ambience... accented with dramatic flowing curtains, trendy mismatched furnishings, and an eclectic collection of avant-garde artwork." Full review
Concierge "This waterfront charmer with just 115 rooms—practically a B&B by Orlando's bloated standards—is a successful evocation of the Old Florida vibe."
Travel + Leisure "Formerly the Celebration Hotel." Full review
Rough Guide "Celebration’s only hotel is a predictably upmarket and classy place, with elegant rooms overlooking the town’s picturesque lake. $199."
Fodor's "Like everything in the Disney-created town of Celebration, this boutique hotel in the middle of the charming village borrows from the best of the 19th, 20th, and 21st centuries." Full review
Gayot "An elegant plantation setting complete with Southern hospitality captures the simplicity and serenity of early 1900s Florida."
Time Out "The Bohemian Celebration is ideal for intimate, kid-free vacations thanks to its mere 115 guest rooms and suites." Full review

DK Eyewitness "Mission-style architecture, an impressive collection of musical memorabilia, and an underwater sound system built into the impressive pool make this the hippest of Universal’s luxury resorts."
Rough Guide "Stuffed with rock memorabilia, and with familiar tunes blaring out at poolside, this is the least tranquil of the park’s resorts – and the most popular with the younger generation."
Star Service "Overlooking Universal Studios from its privileged locale inside the park, this hotel is situated on a waterway that connects it to its equally impressive siblings." Full review

Electricity and water are a dangerous combination, but this is a fact the Hard Rock chooses to ignore (and we're glad they do!
