Arrow Hilton Garden Inn Orlando International Drive North {US-FL}

I searched in the various Orlando properties threads. Could find plenty of reference to quite a few of the other HGI properties in Orlando (in particular the Seaworld property) but not that particular one (near Universal). Anybody stayed there?
Also, what should I expect the traffic to be like to the airport from there on a Friday morning (flight departing circa 9.30am)? My initial intention would have been to stay in one of the Hilton properties near the airport but they are all substantially more expensive on the day I need to be there.

Obviously not a popular property with FTers, then .

Here's a suggestion

Never stayed at the Hilton you're referring to; however, I just stayed 3 nights at the Embassy Suites Hotel Orlando Airport and was very impressed.

The hotel seems new. Evening snacks weren't chips & dip. There were hot appetizers and a taste of the "Kitchen's Manager Special" (pork fried rice one night).

Service was excellent & it's about 11 miles (easy toll-way drive) to the airport.

Would absolutely stay there again. Here's the website link:

Travel safe!

been there three or four times....


completely unremarkable, with way.

As far as traffic. I wouldn't worry about it. You are real close to the Bee Line.

Not a great property, IMHO. Noisy with large affinity groups. You'll see dozens of coach buses in the parking lot arriving after 8pm filled with school groups. The hotel mgt. supposedly segregates the affinity groups away from other guests by using different towers but that most certainly did NOT happen during my prior experience. The hotel was clean enough, etc. But kids running amok in hallways and clogging elevators are not in my travel planner.

Hilton Garden Inn Orlando International Drive North (Contact...)

Hi,

I looked around on the web, I found their phone number on the HGI website but no email... Someone has an email contact?

Thanks
