Courtyard at Lake Lucerne - Orlando

It was a nice break, just minutes to Church Street and other downtown establishments. Walk the lake and enjoy the architecture of the neighborhood homes.

This is a wonderful and charming historic place. Very peaceful and comfortable. I have stayed twice and had a great experience both times. Breakfast is delicious, too.

Roomy accommodations nice cocktail hour and great breakfast

Genuine Hotels.com guest review

This hotel turned out to be a pleasant surprise. I didn't know what to expect. For those of you that don't mind victorian antique decor this place is a great deal for the price. The hotel is walking distance to downtown Orlando, friendly service, clean and reasonable price. I couldn't ask for anything more.

It is a great hotel. Super close to the Anway center. Friendly service, good breakfast, free parking. Just be mindful of the fact that it has a bed and breakfast feel to it. The one thing I didn't like was the bed comforter it was old and stiff. Overall a great romantic place.

The staff was extremely helpful and friendly. And every evening there is a happy hour and a chance to meet some other people staying there.

We stayed for a weekend to attend a conference at the Amway Center. The room (suite) was large and very comfortable, and had everything you need to stay in if you bring a little food... It was a nice short walk to the Amway Center. Lots of great restaurants just a few blocks away, either downtown to the north, or Orange Ave to the south. It's located […] in a very nice neighborhood. The ONLY thing we didn't like was they didn't have blackout shades so the bedroom was not completely dark at night. Breakfast was excellent. The atmosphere here is great - lots of trees and beautiful garden between houses. Two weddings were taking place on one of our nights at the Courtyard. They were beautiful and looked like a lot of fun. Overall, it's a nice quite, romantic, getaway. Read more

All was great. We were in the art deco building which was a 1 bedroom apartment. Convenient to downtown. Free parking. Breaksfast buffet was included and served in a great comfortable atmophere inside or on the porch outside.

It was a great B & B for the things you go to a B & B for. I stayed in a victorian styled room which was very large and had a large jacuzzi tub and a fireplace, which went off and on. I never could get wifi to work on my laptop, although they haven't had too much trouble with other guests or rooms concerning Wifi. It comprises of 4 houses, which can […] be inconvienient if you want ice or a soft drink, which you need to go to the office for, which may well be in another building. Very nice staff - tried to make my stay as good as possible. Walking distance to Amway Center & Church st., which was great! Complimentary bkfast and cocktail hour was also great! Read more

The positives: Nice building with quaint decor right in the heart of downtown Orlando. And the breakfast was far better than the typical 'Continental breakfast' served at most hotels. The negatives: The room was very small and cramped, the shower stall was tiny so taking a shower was extremely difficult and uncomfortable. And the windows had no shades, […] blinds or even real curtains. All they had were see-through lace. So the lights from the city and passing cars made it difficult to sleep and once the sun came up, forget about sleeping in. Read more

We expected more of a bed and breakfast atmosphere. Room was not comfortable. Everything was older and outdated. Kitchenette was very small with older appliances. Room had oriental theme I think. Very small flat screen tv in living area and older small tube tv in bedroom. I think I had that same tv in the early 80's. Bath needed a major renovation. […] Breakfast was very continental. Coutyard was very nice. Not exactly what we expected for the money Read more

Wow! We had planned to go to the Mad Cow Theatre at Church Street Station and also the SAK Comedy Club located near there. Not knowing where to stay we chose the hotel by location and seeing some pics. We could not have been happier. We were able to walk at night, hotel had a 'happy hour' and a great breakfast. The bed was comfy, staff was great. We […] can't wait to stay again. We loved it!! Read more

This B&B is located on the edge of downtown in Orlando's oldest building. The rooms are unique and decorated with vintage Victorian furniture. The have a wide variety of free cocktails each night and an excellent free breakfast in the morning. This company owns three other next-door historic buildings and they have tropical garden courtyards in between. […] One of the front desk personnel went out of his way to make sure I had a parking spot on a busy night and was incredibly helpful. Downtown is well within walking distance and I was able to leave my car there and easily walk to get dinner on Church St. I really love this place - the historic setting is so relaxing! Read more

Overall this place is a great getaway for a married couple. The decor is a bit different and old but the price is reasonable for the location which is conveniiently located in downtown Orlando. The juzzi tub was the highlight for our room as well! This is our 2nd stay and we will plan to come back for sure.

I stayed in the art deco building for two nights. This is a great downtown location close to the Amway center and many other downtown activities. The room was actually a suite and was an apartment at one time. It is a very old building and when you first walk in it smells a little musty however the smell doesn't linger. The carpet was new and the shower […] was very good. There is a continental breakfast served and in the evening you can also have a complementary cocktail. I enjoyed my stay and will return again should I need to stay in the area. Read more

Address on Hotels.com was wrong, spent 45 minutes trying to find the place. Its a bed and breakfast, which isn't available until 7:00 am. Too bad if you're an early riser and need coffee, all though I did nock on doors until I got coffee! The shower in my room was so small that I could barely lift my arms, and I'm a petite person. I found the staff […] to be very friendly, even though I arrived late in the evening the made me a few cocktails! The house is beautiful. Great for a vacation, but not the business traveler. Also, breakfast was pretty good. Read more

The address on the web site & Expedia cannot be used in a GPS to find the place! We searched for quite some time trying to find the the hotel after an exhausting day. I drove in pouring rain and traffic for too long using two different GPS with no luck. It was very frustrating! I had to find a place where I could stop and make a direct call to the place. […] The person answering the phone told me no one can get there using a GPS! He gave he a completely different address which is 500 Delaney! We had no problem with that address in the GPS and I wonder why in the world isn't that information given to people who are making reservations at the hotel. The other disappointment was they have cats roaming the halls and the living area. I am very allergic to cats so I would not recommend this hotel to anyone. Both problems indicate an unwillingness to correct problems for their guests since this has been a problem before. The staff's comments to the address were, "Yes, we are hidden". Read more

What a beautiful place - and pet-friendly to boot! The website doesn't do it justice. It is one of the most relaxing hotel I've been in in a long time. There was even a wedding going on. Just a beautiful setting all around.

We thought that this was going to be a Courtyard Marriott. It turned out to be far superior! The staff is very helpful and the atmosphere at this 129 year old place is fantastic!

The grounds and room were great. DO NOT!!! stay there on weekends. 2 very loud wedding bands going on and I was stuck in a loud room between the two. Bands played to 9:30 p.m. and I was looking for a quiet place as I had an early a.m. surgery

The pictures I saw were not what I got. I thought it was a B&B and the pictures showed individual rooms. I got a suite in an old building next to the nice ones. It was clean but the ironing board was nasty and the iron wasn't working very well. The decor was eclectic. The breakfast was good. The courtyard area was the best part about the hotel.

Well my husband and I went there for our anniversary and we really enjoyed ourselves. We had no parking issues and for it being so close to the road we couldn’t hear the traffic. It was very close to the restaurants and shopping centers. We never took our car anywhere we enjoyed the walks to the close by park and really enjoyed taking pictures in the […] beautiful well-kept gardens. This place had a vintage look to it but that is what made it so romantic. Every morning they offered a well laid out breakfast it the well decorated dining room. It was beautiful and wasn’t expensive at all. We plan on going back to this place in the near future. Read more

What a nice change from the usual chain hotels we usually choose in Orlando. Friendly welcome from the manager and resident porch cat. Our room over looked the lake and had a sun porch with comfortable chairs and ceiling fan. Bed was small double but comfortable. Brochures showed other larger, more elegantly appointed rooms were available but for the […] Expedia reserved room at a bargain price, ours was fine. Very convenient to downtown, so great for business travel. Very nice breakfast included, French toast, spinach cheese strata, pastries, cereals, fresh fruit, and really tasty coffee served in a nicely appointed room. The open bar in the evening was another nice touch. Definitely will return. Read more

Great location for a business meeting I had in Downtown Orlando. The staff was very nice, easy check in, attentive to our needs with a 2 year old child.

Complete surprise in downtown Orlando.. a bit difficult to find as it's surrounded by highways but the home is lovely, the rooms very quaint with little adjacent enclosed porches to have your coffee in. Garden is beautiful and the breakfast home lovely. True find and very reasonably priced. Wine upon arrival was a nice touch.

Genuine Expedia guest review

Very covenient for freeway, but.......that does mean that many of the rooms are very noisy. We were given the large and delightful "honeymoon suite" in the art deco building beside the original hotel. Grand mirrored bathroom with double spa bath, and 20s/30s period furniture. All fine, but we could not sleep for the loud rumble of traffic. They kindly […] moved us to a room in the original house and that was very pleasant, with no noise problem. Evening cocktails were great and the breakfast on the large veranda overlooking the courtyard was excellent. Location is a 10 minute (safe) walk to an area with many good bars and restaurants; ideal for adults! Read more

Genuine Hotels.com guest review

Very quaint for a historic B&B type hotel. The courtyard gardens were quite nice as well as the "house" where the breakfast was served. The fact that it is very near to major roadways and expressway overpasses detract from the "setting" but focusing just on the facilities, they were very comfortable.

My wife and I had a delightful stay at the courtyard. A beautiful setting tucked away in downtown Orlando. We were within an easy walk of the places we wanted to visit. The room was spacious, the staff welcoming, and the breakfast was delicious. We found this hotel to have much more of a bed & breakfast feel than a hotel. Just what we needed and wanted! […] We can't wait to go back! Read more

Genuine Hotels.com guest review

While I understand there are four buildings, I only resided in the first building which held the hotel office. This building was small but lovely, carrying this 19th-20th century feel to it that made it more like a step back in time. Everything was a tad shorter than normal, and the shower small (don't anticipate doing much in it ;) ) but the bed was […] just long enough. If you end up in this building, make sure you aren't very tall or you might not fit the bed. There was a lovely little sun room patio as well, though we didn't use it much. The entire place had this character about it you expect from old, small hotels, a character that makes it a quite romantic selling point when compared to standard run-of-the-mill places. And to top it off, it was nearly as cheap as the run-of-the-mill places, even with a performance at the Bob Carr center going on. I honestly felt I got a room I hadn't paid enough for, though room service wasn't exceptional so I suppose it balances out. Word of caution to travelers; plan ahead extensively. Google Earth it if you have to, but make sure you understand how the streets run around the hotel. It's a left-turn only back onto Delaney Ave heading for the one-way Anderson St. And that was the biggest problem with this hotel; the orientation of the streets around it can be a pain to the uninitiated and uninformed. But the location is great, as it is near everything. Read more

The only issues that I had were, a) the security lights were very good, but the blinds in my bedroom were not adequate enough to block the light AND b) there are 4 buildings at the hotel, don't expect to stay at the one pictured. Otherwise the breakfast was EXCELLENT and the the people were very friendly.

This is a nice older hotel near downtown orlando. Very quiet considering that it's between an expressway and an offramp. They present themselves as a bed and breakfast but it's only a continental breakfast and not a great one at that. By their standards any hotel with a bagel and OJ available in the morning is a B&B. They also advertise free wi-fi internet […] access ... it would be better if they didn't. The bandwidth is abysmal if not existent and offering it just leads to broken expectations. However, the room was generous in it's size (appears to have been an apartment in days gone by) with a separate bedroom, livingroom, bathroom and kitchen. The gerden courtyard is very nice and lush. All in all a pleasent place to stay if you don't need internet or have a cell-modem. Read more

If you are a Bed & Breakfast type person, the Courtyard at Lake Lucerne is wonderful! It is centrally located and within walking distance to downtown restaurants, parks and one of Orlando's well kept historic areas. Our room not only had a covered porch, but we also had a shared open air one as well. Breakfast is as they advertise, an "expanded continental […] breakfast", but with the B&B atmosphere. (You may have to ask if the cocktail hour is a go before they open the bar, but that is because hardly anyone takes advantage of it.) We were extremely satisfied and will definitely return to the Courtyard at Lake Lucerne! Read more

We only stayed for one night and sadly were unable to make the most of this beautiful place as had to leave early the next morning, but we loved the ambiance and the beautiful rooms.

It's a great place when you stay for longer in Orlando. Our suite had a nice living room, kitchen and bedroom. The hotel is unique with its atmosphere. You can tell that it is in good hands and it's well looked after. It has a reasonable price with nice breakfast.
