Best Marriott Hotels in Orlando-Walt Disney World

Perched a few miles from the eastern edge of Walt Disney World Resort, the Orlando World Center Marriott provides an ideal location for leisure travelers (especially those with kids) and the amenities business travelers expect. Not only is this Marriott outpost close to the theme parks, but it also offers a variety of on-site supervised activities for children. While your youngsters are occupied, you can hit the fairways at the 18-hole golf course, indulge in a treatment at the on-site spa or break a sweat at the 24-hour fitness center. When it's time to refuel, you'll have five dining options to choose from, plus a grab-and-go market. Past visitors raved about the service provided in all of the on-site eateries. In Orlando on business? You'll have access to a 24-hour business center and nearly 400,000 square feet of event space. There are also four pools, including one with waterfalls and three waterslides. But remember, this property charges a daily resort fee of $28.13. If you're a Marriott Rewards member, you can help offset resort charges by using points to pay for your room.

Guests say this airport hotel offers more than just convenience. Aside from the property's location and its free shuttle to Orlando International Airport, the Orlando Airport Marriott Lakeside also received praise for its rooms, on-site facilities and smiling staff members. Accommodations here come equipped with beds with pillow-top mattresses, bathrooms outfitted with Bath & Body Works toiletries, coffee makers, 42-inch flat-screen TVs with Hulu and Netflix access, as well as wireless internet (for an extra fee). Lodgers were also impressed with the outdoor pool, with some saying it reminded them more of a resort pool than something they would find at an airport hotel. Others were surprised with the amount of dining options available on-site (four to be exact). This Marriott outpost also offers a fitness center, an indoor pool, bike rentals and a business center on-site. But even with the wealth of amenities, some reviewers felt the pricey room rates should include on-site parking. Luckily, members of the Marriott Rewards program can offset costs by cashing in points.
