Renaissance Orlando Resort at SeaWorld

Frommer's Review

This resort just goes to show that you should never judge a book by its cover. What appears to be a rather simple-looking hotel from the exterior gives way to an inviting and modern interior, with trendy touches throughout. A glass-covered atrium rises high above a stunning indoor courtyard where you'll find lush foliage, cascading waterfalls, a chic new lounge, the Boardwalk sports bar, and Mist Sushi and Spirits (each of which features a distinctive open concept within the courtyard). The tastefully decorated rooms, all recently revamped, are oversized, providing plenty of space to spread out and relax. After extensive renovations to the pool area in 2006, 2007 saw a $20-million makeover that included the addition of an 8,000-square-foot full-service spa. You can't beat the location if you are a fan of SeaWorld -- the park is just across from the hotel.
