This is our second stay at the Dockside Inn Orlando. The property is well maintained. The accommodations are roomy, clean and family friendly.

Hotel.is perfect for families and we loved the pool area. The cafeteria style dining was also great with the kids. I would recommend getting a refillable cup. The only complaint is that the rooms are small and the sheets are weird but the beds are comfy. The rooms/toiletries reminded me of a lower end hotel. Everything else was great. The bus to the Universal properties is awesome and runs like clock work.

Good place for familys. The cafeteria style restaurant was good but expensive for the quality. Lots of walking to gwt to the lobby depending on where your room is located. My teens loved the layout and decor of the suite. Nice they offer a 3 bes suite for a great price. Would definitly stay here again. The free shuttle to Universal attractions cant be beat.

The hotel was average. It was super noisy and so busy. Parking was difficult to find and the trek from the elevator to the room was long! The second night there someone pulled the fire alarm and terrified us! After the alarm a message through the loudspeaker in the room told us it was a false alarm. Apparently it was a sports weekend and a bunch of kids teams were staying there with minimal adult supervision….

Family friendly hotel with spacious pool layout. Our suite was nice with a surfing theme decor, which kids enjoyed. 3 beds made it for everyone to get good rest. Their Sealy Posturepedic made it for good comfortable sleep, which I loved! Shuttle’s to Universal Studios are very convenient as well as 5 minute wait for Uber’s for any other locations.

We stayed here during spring break after our cruise was canceled. We were able to book this property last minute and it did not disappoint. The resort is clean and well laid out. The suites are perfect for families!

I ran into an issue were my card was charged twice for my stay, however the staff apologized and corrected it immediately. Also, I was given food vouchers to accommodate my family due to the mistake. Otherwise, the stay was great and I would come again.
