It's A Hotel

Roberto Pepin Nov 10, 2009

Would recommend to a friend!

Overall I was happy with the hotel given what I was doing there. Great Location with easy access and plenty of parking. The ... absolute best Hotel Bed I have had in my many years of traveling. Front desk service was very good with friendly staff. The bartender in the lounge could use a tune up as he wasn't the friendliest. Perhaps dealing with tourists all day has something to do with that. The walls of the room were a bit thin as we were woken up by our neighbors one morning (before 7). I would stay there again but I think if I were with children there are better Disney options.

Take the Old With the New

Vacation Mom Nov 10, 2009

The hotel lobby and main tower were updated and very modern and nice but our hotel room in the attached building was anything ... but. It was very old and small...the latch on the door was broken, the tub was very stained, there were no drinking glasses in our room. For this reason (despite the low price), I would not stay there again unless I was to receive an updated room. Thankfully the pool was nice for the kids.

NOT A 4 STAR HOTEL

Rick Nov 3, 2009

Let me start by stating that this is no 4 star hotel it may get to a 2 star, the hotel has a main tower and on both sides ... have wings in which our room was assigned this wings have the look of a cheap motel when we got to the room the card key didn't even work, we went back to the reception and asked to be placed in a room in the main tower which they charge us extra we head up to the room and in the hallway even the wall paper is falling down, room not up to a 4 star hotel standards and if it wasn't because we had pre-paid the reservation we would have stay somewhere else, This hotel is in a bad need for a renovation the staff was friendly but don't have a good product to work with, we choose this hotel based on the star rating but that information is deceiving, I would not recomend this hotel to any friends or family and we will not come back to this hotel, thank god we only went to sleep at the hotel.

braunislaus Nov 1, 2009

Would recommend to a friend!

Attended a conference in a nearby hotel. This resort was about half the price and of comparable quality. Free and ... hassle-free internet, though not blazingly fast. In-room coffee not supplied consistently. No free breakfast. Food overpriced. Real grocery store is about a mile down the road -- relatively easy walk. Large in-room fridge was a big help for breakfast & coffee. Pool was nice but a bit small for laps (about 55 feet long). Electronic keys. Hassle-free checkout. Big room, including small kitchen/work table.

We stayed in a standard room on the side of the hotel which is attached to the high rise newer building. It appeared to be a ... much older building, and as a result was not modern, open and airy that we would expect in Florida. We did not have an opportunity to view the newer rooms in the high rise but would imagine they would be much better which might be a factor to be considered when booking The room was average, clean and provided a sizeable refrigerator along with a coffeemaker. There was no charge for parking and it was close to the rooms. The location provided excellent access to Downtown Disney but there is just a view of the parking lot. If you are looking for a clean, no-frills room, it's fine.

Downtown Disney Fan Oct 26, 2009

This hotel was listed as a 4 star, but it didn't live up to that reputation. Most of the rooms were motel style walk up with ... exterior entrances. The room was clean for the most part. Some staining of the tile grout. The cable outlet was broken and missing, and the room was pretty small. Lots of small dirty spots on other doors within the complex. The pool area was great and the staff were friendly. If you are expecting a luxurious 4 star...look elsewhere.

Dragon Boat Paddler Oct 19, 2009

[...] Three characteristics of this particular hotel made the decision to stay in Orlando ... instead of my hometown of Tampa ... ... a no-brainer. Free self parking, the huge resort-style pool with poolside bar/restaurant and last, but certainly not least, the Regal sun is located a short five-minute walk from the Rainforest Cafe end of Downtown Disney. Our group of 10-20 paddlers from Tampa were able to take advantage of all three selling points during our two-night stay. We could have driven 70 miles to Downtown Disney from Tampa the morning of the event and back home immediately afterwards, but the rate, location and amenities of the Regal Sun allowed us all to enjoy an inexpensive weekend away from home.To summarize, the Regal Sun offers destination resort amenities without destination resort pricing. A person or family from outside the State of Florida could fly in, take a shuttle to the hotel and enjoy their time in Orlando without the need for an expensive rental car. Because of the wonderful pool, they wouldn't even need to leave the property!

The Regal Sun is located a short walk from Downtown Disney, which has a variety of family and adult nightlife options to choose from. The fact that you can access all of this without the need to get in a vehicle and drive is a HUGE benefit. On-site, free scheduled shuttle service to the Disney parks is a great incentive to stay here, as well.

For the price of the hotel, the room was pretty nice. For an inexpensive price we got a great location, nice staff, great ... pool, and nice room design. The hotel is exactly a 2.5 minute walk from its entrance to Downtown Disney. My only complaint was that upon entering the room my husband and I noticed dry, white stains on the red quilts. We called room service and they changed the red covers promptly. Otherwise, everything else went well.

Cinderella Girl Oct 10, 2009

The Regal Sun was great for my Disney Trip! If you are thinking of staying at a Disney Value Resort because of price, then ... consider this resort too. It's more like a moderate resort at a value price. I really enjoyed the environment, the lobby, and the hotel pool. My six year old had a great time there. The children's services at the Regal Sun are great. There are hula hoops and bubbles for kids to play with while waiting for the Disney bus. There is also a section of the lobby with children's toys and games, and a Nintendo Wii to play with in the morning. The Regal Sun has activities every day for kids. The person who is in charge of the activities is called the "Director of Fun". She has a really great lizard hunt on Tuesday and Thursday for all the kids, and crafts on Wednesday. It gives you about a half hour to relax or take care of travel arrangements while your child is busy. The pool was amazing!! It has a children's area, a lap area, a relaxing area with a waterfall, and a hot tub. There is a pool bar which also serves lunch/dinner sandwiches, chicken tenders, etc. The area has a great view overlooking the hotel gardens and a natural waterway. The hotel has a resort charge which is applied to your credit card when you get there. But in return there is free wireless internet if you bring a laptop, all the kids programs, free boarding pass printing (bring your airline confirmation numbers), and the bus shuttles. I felt a $10.00 charge would have been more appropriate. Call the hotel to see what their current resort fee is before booking. The only other thing I missed was a complementary breakfast. Even if it was just toast and jelly and some juice selections, that would have made the hotel an even better value over the Disney Value Resorts. I am a frequent disney traveler, but this is the first time I've stayed at a Downtown Disney property. I would definitely choose this property over a value resort. The services are a lot better and the rooms are much nicer too. I would recommend it to everyone (singles, couples, and families)!

The LYNX bus 111 (Public Transportation) picks up and drops off on the corner. The regular fare is $2.00 per person. If you are only carrying one piece of luggage per person it can be a very cost-effective way to get to and from the airport. The busses are very safe and clean!

Great location, within a short walking distance to Downtown Disney. Slightly disappointed with the room, but it was still ... very nice. Being that it was a Disney sponsored hotel, I expected to at least be able to get a pass for parking and/or the late night passes for the park. Neither of which were available. Otherwise a very nice place with a helpful staff

We stayed at this hotel for just one night so we didn't have to travel late. The room were small, and the parking ... availability was horrible; but a nice pool and bar area.

Recreation/Attractions tip, Short Drive

All of the attractions of Downtown Disney and Pleasure Island are just a short distance from the hotel. If your destination is DisneyWorld, it is a convenient drive to any of the theme parks or you can avail yourself of the Disney Transportation systm.

Nightlife tip, Short Drive

For those looking for evening entertainment, it can be found at Downtown Disney,Pleasure Island or the Disney Boardwalk which all are a short drive away.

Downtown Disney is literally across the street.

--Downtown Disney Fan, Naples, FL Oct 26, 2009

Nightlife tip, Short Walk

The Regal Sun is located a short walk from Downtown Disney, which has a variety of family and adult nightlife options to choose from. The fact that you can access all of this without the need to get in a vehicle and drive is a HUGE benefit. On-site, free scheduled shuttle service to the Disney parks is a great incentive to stay here, as well.

--Dragon Boat Paddler, Tampa, FL Oct 19, 2009

Money savers tip, In Hotel

The hotel offers great coupons to Unos, Quiznos, and the Ice Bar, along with various other places.

directly across the street is downtown disney where both adults and kids can relax without feeling too overwhelmed with the "disney" experience.

--liz, miami springs, fl Oct 6, 2009

Dining tip, Short Drive

Short drive away is Pizza Uno. Great food. There is also great food at Downtown Disney but expect to pay for is.

--jeffriv, Tampa Florida Oct 5, 2009

Entertainment tip, Short Walk

In Downtown Disney, have dinner at McDonald's or one of the cheaper venues....then stroll through and enjoy the free entertainment that takes place all night. The pricey restaurants aren't worth the money, and the free entertainment is better throughout the plazas.

--Valerie, Seminole, Florida Sep 30, 2009

Downtown Disney

--yeep, Miami Sep 29, 2009

Dining tip, Short Drive

Short drive to Chevy's--a moderate priced very good Mexican restaurant.

--Nan, RI Sep 7, 2009

Dining tip, Short Walk

There is a great Cuban restaurant in Downtown Disney on the West Side called Bongos. The place was jumping with authentic Cuban music, drinks, and food. The decor is wonderful. You feel like you are in a Cuban club from the 1950's. The food was delicious and reasonably priced. The service was excellent. We had a great time. I can't wait to go there again.
