Gayot "Located in the community of Celebration, just minutes from the Walt Disney World theme parks, this hotel features 240 one- and two-bedroom suites."
Frommer's "Curvy-walled and cloistered, this 240-room hotel arrived on the scene in 2008 (as the Mona Lisa—her grinning image still greets guests in the lobby) and remains a peaceful, well-kept secret." Full review
Fodor's "Much like a European boutique hotel in style and service, the Meliá Orlando is very human in scale and crisply minimalist in decor, and is only minutes from Disney." Full review

"The 240-room Melia Orlando Suite Hotel at Celebration is an upscale, family-friendly, all suite hotel conveniently located near the interstate and a short drive from the Disney theme parks." Full review

Rough Guide "A good-value, elaborate theme hotel, complete with Renaissance music and medieval decor."
Star Service "This imaginative nine-story hotel continues to bear the telltale crenellated profile of its theme park masters." Full review
Frommer's "Most of the hotels along International Drive fall into two categories: gigantic convention-fed pillow mills and nondescript low-rise chain-run pillow mills." Full review
Fodor's "You won't really believe you're in a castle at this midprice hotel, although the whimsical gold-and-silver spires... may make you feel as if you're having a Harry Potter moment." Full review
Gayot "Guests are greeted in the lobby with mosaic-tile murals, arched doorways, Renaissance-era music and piped in nature sounds, for what's just the beginning of a multi-layered storybook affair."
