International Drive's largest claim to fame is the Universal Orlando Resort, home to two theme parks — Islands of Adventure and Universal Studios; the water park, Wet 'n Wild; and the entertainment area, CityWalk. The I-Ride trolley (really a bus) stops frequently along the street. At the north end of International Drive are two shopping meccas: Prime Outlets-Orlando and The Mall at Millenia.

"About our stay"
The Inn really was quite convenient for our weekend to Universal. It is probably one of the closest places to the park that we have stayed. Someone said you could walk to the park, and I suppose that might be true but you will probably not want to walk back. Our room was clean, the bed was very firm yet comfortable. One odd thing...the next morning […] I took a shower, and while I was in it there was a thud on the inside of the wall and suddenly the water stopped...completely. The shower is the kind where you lift the pull on top of the water spout to start the shower, so I smacked it down and pulled it up again, and the water came on. Then it thudded again and stopped. This went on until the end of my shower, and sometimes the water barely started running before it stopped...it made me chuckle because I was trying to rinse soap off of myself and every time I started rinsing the water shut off. All I could think is that there were a LOT of people trying to take showers. It did not happen Sunday morning when we were getting ready to leave but honestly, that has never happened to me before. Our second night I saw what another reviewer described...if you get back to your room too late all of the parking spots will be gone, and you will have to park in the traffic circle in the front of the main entrance. We were fortunate because as we were arriving another car was leaving. All that aside, the staff was very cordial and pleasant, and I was glad I booked our stay there.

"Couldn't have asked for more"
Wonderful location, clean, clean, clean room and all common areas, friendly and helpful staff. Granddaughters and I stayed the night after a day at Universal, which by the way, is right next door, couple of minutes by car and you could walk it. We had brunch the next day and it was wonderful as well. An excellent stay and we'll be back!Genuine Hotels.com guest review

"Great Hotel with even better service"
Make sure first stop after checking in is hitting the Tikki Bar and ask for Collin. Not only is he a great bar tender, but his in depth knowledge of the parks is top notch. With his planning & suggestions we were able to see all of the parks we wanted to in the short time we had. The room was clean, quiet and comfy, but location is right across the […] street from Wet & Wild, Universal complex and right on I-Drive. Read moreGenuine Hotels.com guest review
"Very clean and spacious"
The hotel was super clean. The room we stayed in was very spacious and the sheets were clean. The bed was very comfortable and the bathroom was spotless. The staff was extra friendly, always appreciated. They had free coffee downstairs everyday and free tea. They sometimes had some pastries like cookies. I really enjoyed my stay here and would definitely […] come back if I were to go to Universal again! Read moreGenuine Hotels.com guest review
"One of their worst in quality"
I was there on business for 2 weeks and this 1 night was personal. Kept the same room. A/C and Heat never worked. They tried twice to fix it and failed. Notice of cleaning the A/C on a flyer. Told those guys to check it. They didn't. Never worked. My phone never worked until the last day. They checked it twice and never got it working. Last night, they […] finally unplugged 1 phone and left just one and left the other one unplugged, never replaced. Also, ants on the side table and wall. Read moreGenuine Hotels.com guest review

"Great"
It is a good place. There are many restaurants around the hotel which is good for travelers.Genuine Expedia guest review
"quick trip"
Overall, the Hilton Garden Inn was a great choice! Super close and easy to get to Universal, nice lobby, and spacious rooms. The only downfall was the curtains do not close and there was a light right outside our room, shining brightly all night. We had to maove the chair in front of the window to try to block out the light.Genuine Hotels.com guest review
"Amazing over all but don't expect a comfy bed"
Overall the hotel was amazing. The decor was modern yet not over the top. The amenities and extra they had like pool towels, tiki bar, awesome pool, fresh cookies and even more than that. The rooms were clean and the staff was super nice and friendly. The only bad thing I can say is that the bed was super super hard. We could barely sleep. There was […] no give in it at all.

"Great hotel"
I went with my boyfriend and it was really a great hotel. The front desk called a taxi for us, shuttled us the Islands of Adventures and were just extremely helpful. The only thing is at breakfast I ordered an omelet with veggies and found quite a few pieces of ham. Other than that hick-up it was great.Genuine Hotels.com guest review

"Excellent place to stay!"
We stayed for a week while visiting family in the Orlando area. The hotel is conveniently located and is in walking distance to many attractions and restaurants. The hotel couldn't have been cleaner and well maintained. The cabanas in the pool area are a great feature. I would definitely stay there again and recommend it to anyone.Genuine Expedia guest review

"Close to HHN"
The house keeping people started knocking on doors around 8:15am, check out time was at 11am (we had a do not disturb sign on our door so they didn't knock on ours). Each time they knocked on a door we could hear them inside our room. Also, we could hear each time someone closed their door near our room.Genuine Hotels.com guest review

"Great hotel in the middle of it all:)"
We would stay here again! I was right on the "strip" and you can buy an all day pass for the trolly for $4.00 and there are so many places to eat and shop.You do have to catch a cab to the parks but it was only about $8. It is pricey to go from the airport to the hotel (about $43 one way) so be prepared because the hotel does not have a shuttle. That […] would be my only negative about the trip. The pool was nice and the staff was so helpful everytime we needed them. This is a great hotel and a great price! Read moreGenuine Expedia guest review

Front desk staff was amazing! Very helpful no matter what we needed. Great location to all major attractions. Close access to iride if you are vacationing without a car, for a $1.25 ride you can't beat it. 15 min walk to Universal Islands of Adventure and City Walk. Great pool and cool tiki bar. Only wished the bar would have opened earlier then 4p […] m. Read moreGenuine Expedia guest review
"Wet and Wild"
It's near the Wet and Wild park, but no where near the convention center. Seems that the cleaning staff just make up what they feel like doing every day, never replenished the coffee, sometimes half-make the bed. Sort of cursory "dropped by to check on the room" Claimed to call a taxi for me, but the taxi didn't show, then another day called a car service […] that cost 1.5x the cost of a regular cab. Downtown cabs have a 'fixed rate" instead of turning on the meter. Unless you have a car, it's not worth the effort. Read moreGenuine Hotels.com guest review
