Crowne Plaza Universal Review

This sleek, 15-story high-rise is conveniently located a block east of I-Drive and caters primarily to business travelers. Although it's closer to Universal Orlando and SeaWorld (about midway between them) than to WDW, getting to Disney is no problem because the hotel offers free shuttles to the major parks. It's also close to the I-Ride Trolley, which saves shoe leather for those interested in exploring International Drive. The subdued rooms (most inside the Crowne Wing, along with the hotel's meeting space) are well appointed and offer floor-to-ceiling windows. Some of the pricier rooms (with Jacuzzi tubs) are in the circular Atrium Tower, where you can climb to the top in high-speed glass elevators. Facilities include a state-of-the-art fitness center.

Facilities:
Restaurant; cafe; lounge; babysitting; concierge; health club; outdoor heated pool; room service; limited spa services; free transportation to WDW, Universal, SeaWorld and Wet 'n Wild; Wi-Fi (free)

About Our System

Frommer's ranks every hotel, restaurant, attraction, shop, and nightlife establishment it reviews for quality, value, service, amenities, and special features using a star-rating scale, an expression of the strong compare-and-contrast opinions that are a brand hallmark.

Other ratings provide stars based primarily on price and amenities; the Frommer's star rating is meant to quantify the kind of intangible, experiential elements that help travelers make informed decisions.

The "baseline" recommendation is zero stars--every hotel, restaurant, attraction, shop, and nightlife establishment that Frommer's chooses to review is recommended; otherwise, we simply wouldn't include it.
