“Orlando Stella nova October 2026”

Hotel was quite easy to find once Waze was linked to the car. Both Waze and google linked so we used both. Hotel was welcoming, put us on top floor with a great view of epic theme park. Room was tidy, serviced every other day. Restaurant offers a variety of food but we decided not to eat there. There is a small shop with very limited and very expensive goods with a bottle of smart water at $8 and a butter croissant at $5.50 both plus tax. Light switches can be a pain as they go off when there is no movement. Tv is typical but you can access your Netflix if needed. Lifts and all other hotel amenities worked well and staff were pleasant. Would I stay here again, probably but I would try next hotel up so we got a few more perks as you only get an hour early access with this hotel. Aircon can work well but is very noisy as are the bedroom doors and courtesy buses when they start.

“Clean, budget friendly hotel close to epic”

Overall, I liked the hotel. very clean, nicely laid out. Check-in was seamless with less than a five minute wait. Our room was not quite ready so they gave us two complementary drinks at the bar. Room is nice, plenty of room, clean. The food at Quik serve was actually relatively good, but I was disappointed they had a set menu that never changed. So if you are eating there more than two or three days in a row, you run out of options. Very nice pool but hot tub was too small. Indoor and outdoor bar was nice. Mattress was good, pillows too hard. very disappointed our room was not refreshed on our second day while we were at the park. Came back to no clean towels and no trash emptied. Called down to front desk twice for two towels and it took 95 minutes to get them. to summit up, this hotel is a budget friendly, clean option for a short stay at epic.

“It’s an OK hotel”

The coffee station was inadequate in the hotel room. They did not offer tea packet. The pillows were hard hard to sleep on the mattress was OK but the sheets were scratching. The pool area was OK. It was nothing spectacular about the resort. It was close to epic. The food in the quick Service was just OK. What would make the hotel even better as if they brought some of the food from the epic park which is delicious over to the hotels restaurant

“Good Hotel for doing Epic”

A fine hotel, the busses to epic and studios/IOA were frequent. The Terra Luna is a little farther from epic, also takes the bus. The hotel was fine, breakfast in the cafe was good, one thing to note is that if you order with an actual person, then you can substitute the home fries for fruit. Ordering on the machine, there is no choice. If you don't like noise, then bring ear plugs with you. I would not go to Epic without the express pass. Next time, we are not going to studios/IOA because they are full of areas that are being "worked on" and outdated rides.

“Great experience”

The resort is reasonably priced. They were running a special if you stay 7 nites get $300 off. Rooms very clean, bus transportation to City Walk, Islands of Adventure, Universal. Best part of location is the 10 minute, or less, walk to Epic. (bus available too). Food is just ok in the cafe but found the salmon to be very good. Not too expensive for resort food They charge $30/day for parking which seems to be standard with most local resort properties. Staff is very friendly and helpful. Because they were not fully booked we were able to get in our room at 9am. A bonus! We would stay again.
