Suite, 2 Bedrooms, Pool View (Includes Early Park Admission*)

This suite is categorized as a Pool View room, so it looks out toward the resort-style outdoor pool area. The hotel has two outdoor pools, one at each of its two towers, plus a children's splash pad, which suits families who like to keep an eye on the water.

The suite has three Queen Beds across two bedrooms and sleeps up to 6 guests. At 437 sq. ft. with a separate living area, it works well for a family or two couples travelling together. Up to 5 children aged 17 and younger stay free in the same room as a parent or guardian when using existing bedding.

The suite has a kitchenette with a microwave, mini-fridge and coffee/tea maker, plus a dining area with a dining table. That is enough for breakfast, snacks and reheated leftovers. For other meals, Pier 8 Market is the on-site food court with grab-and-go windows, and a Starbucks sits in the lobby.

The suite has a private bathroom with a shower/bathtub combination. It comes with free toiletries, shampoo, soap, towels and a hair dryer. Accessibility features such as wheelchair accessibility, a visual fire alarm and Braille/raised signage are also provided.

Guests receive Early Park Admission to select attractions, which requires valid theme park admission, and complimentary shuttle buses to Universal's parks and CityWalk. Wi-Fi is complimentary, there is no separate resort fee, and the fitness center is free to hotel guests. Free Wi-Fi covers up to four devices per room.

The hotel sits across International Drive and I-4 from the rest of Universal Orlando, so walking to the parks isn't practical. Free shuttle buses depart from outside the resort lobbies about every 15 minutes. They start roughly an hour before park opening and run as late as 2 AM.

Yes. The separate living area, dining table, kitchenette, daily housekeeping, iron and ironing board and laptop workspace with desk all help on a longer trip. A free crib is available, and connecting rooms are offered for larger parties. Note the two-night minimum stay on every reservation.

Check-in starts at 4:00 PM and check-out is at 11:00 AM, with late check-out available for a charge, subject to availability. At least one guest in the room must be 21 or older, and a photo ID and credit card are needed at check-in. Overnight self-parking is $26 plus tax per night per vehicle, with in/out privileges, and rates may change. The hotel is non-smoking, and pets are not allowed, though service animals are welcome.

Both pools are sized well for families. They don't have water slides, but poolside activities such as movies, ping pong, hula hoop contests and bingo are offered. Pool hours differ between the two towers and vary by season or weather. Each pool has a nearby bar serving drinks only, with 21+ and photo ID required for alcohol. Outside drinks are not allowed in the pool area.
