"It's not exactly luxurious -- subpar bedding; constant crowds; long lines -- but the 727-room Wilderness Lodge is still a superb family resort." Full review
DK Eyewitness "The setting resembles that of the great national parks of the Northwest, with towering pines, a spewing geyser, and rough rocky terrain surrounding a spectacular pool."
Rough Guide Star
"This magnificent, oversized replica of a frontier log cabin is furnished with massive totem poles, a wood-burning fire in the lobby, and Southern-style rocking chairs."
Fodor's "The architects outdid themselves in designing this seven-story hotel modeled after majestic turn-of-the-20th-century lodges in the American Northwest." Full review
Travel + Leisure "A towering lobby filled with totem poles, a replica geyser, and a waterfall-fed rock pool—this Orlando fantasy channels America's national parks to uncanny effect." Full review

Take a ride on a pony or in a horse-drawn carriage.

The Telegraph8.0
"The iconic lodges of America’s National Parks are recreated in this immense log cabin style resort complete with pine forest, babbling indoor-outdoor stream, and a waterfall that flows into the swimming pool." Full review
Condé Nast Traveler "Just a boat ride from the Magic Kingdom, this resort gives you the best of both worlds: convenience and relaxation." Full review
Frommer's "This effective riff on Yellowstone’s woody Old Faithful Lodge, swaddled by oaks and pines, is picturesque and the least expensive of the Deluxe category" Full review

DK Eyewitness "The Art Deco-style here pays tribute to Hollywood movies, with spotlights reminiscent of a Hollywood movie premiere and glamorous touches throughout."
Gayot "This octagonal, 21-floor tower demands attention with its rooftop globe bathed in spotlights and breathtaking views of the Orlando skyline from inside the towering building."
Frommer's "Because it occupies one of those dated cylindrical towers that were briefly in vogue in the early 1970s, the ideally located property has slight novelty that doesn’t translate to luxury." Full review

Request a room that doesn’t face east, as the floodlights from the minigolf joint next door are blinding.
Fodor's "With a hard-to-miss giant silver ball perched atop it, this hotel on the north end of International Drive has a contemporary atmosphere." Full review
Lonely Planet "The art-deco motif starts at the driveway arch and spills into the small checkerboard-floored and mirrored lobby of this tall, skinny building in the middle of International Drive mayhem."

"A mid-range hotel near Universal Studios, the Four Points by Sheraton International Drive is a no-frills option ideal for families or business travelers." Full review
