Pleasant Conference Hotel

We are in Orlando for a conference at the Rosen Plaza. It's a medium-sized conference hotel, with a beautiful pool, and accessible ballroom and meeting rooms. Our room was advertised as having two queen beds, but they're closer to full, or smaller-than-usual queen beds. The room is reasonably nicely appointed with a mini-fridge, safe, and small… Read more

We are in Orlando for a conference at the Rosen Plaza. It's a medium-sized conference hotel, with a beautiful pool, and accessible ballroom and meeting rooms. Our room was advertised as having two queen beds, but they're closer to full, or smaller-than-usual queen beds. The room is reasonably nicely appointed with a mini-fridge, safe, and small bathroom. Due to heavy rains, we ate at Jack's for two evenings. It's a fairly long walk to any other restaurants, etc. along International Drive (in the Universal area), so we also ate breakfasts and lunches at the Rosen Plaza restaurants and shops. Prices were high, but probably not out of line for the intensely touristic Orlando resort area. In addition to our conference, there were three other conferences taking place in the hotel at the same time. At times, there were long lines at the coffee counter, at the little shop with some pre-prepared foods, etc. We only had brief waits for Jack's. We ordered off the appetizer menu both times we ate at Jack's. We ordered crab cakes both times (yummy!), bruschette once and calamari once. With a glass of wine and a slice of key lime pie, our first dinner was about $90. The second time we treated some friends, so the bill was correspondingly higher. Our server the first evening was Assim, who was very good. Our server the second evening was also good, but I didn't catch her name. On the second evening, a caricature artist employed by the restaurant came by our table, but we were already on our way out, so we didn't sit for any caricatures :-) We had brought some materials for the conference, and asked for a luggage cart to move it from our room to one of the meeting rooms. A cart was not available for me, except with a bellman ("We are a full-service hotel"). So, I carried the materials, and made three trips. Otherwise, staff was very pleasant and helpful. Read less

First time in a Rosen hotel, definitely won't be the last, reception staff friendly and welcoming, was christmas time when we visited, the tree in the lobby truly beautiful and there were toy soldiers outside. Our room was on the top floor, views were between the i4 and international drive, we could see magic kingdom fireworks albeit a way away, room big, two king-size beds ( very comfy) a big flat screen TV on a large cupboard with coffee machine, with safe and fridge 3 massive drawers for storage, full length mirror and a desk with office facilities and another mirror, all lamps have usb charging facilities, one lamp next to bed, comfy armchair in corner and a large heater and air conditioning unit which was extremely efficient and quiet, unlike many hotels that sound like there is a monster breathing hard within the walls. Bathroom has a lovely shower/bath , extra towels if needed and separate sink and mirror with socket. Wardrobe in area next to bathroom and large plenty of hanging room, space for luggage storage, laundry bag iron, ironing board and hairdryer, extra pillows if needed. Housekeeping very efficient and friendly, Laundry stations on two floors. In the lobby there is Jack's place a upmarket steak house which we didn't get to try ( next time maybe) Smoooth Java a great coffee stop And a shop that sold swimwear and gifts. Out in the pool area. Lovely freeform pool with a waterfall spa/hot tub.. We spent many days lounging in the hot tub, not sure all the jets work though as they didn't appear to all be on even though we did try. We did notice one guy smoking, I didn't think that was allowed, some people incapable of following rules and trying to ruin it for others. It might have been cool at times but that didn't stop us from getting in the pool, yes I know crazy English 😂 39 poolside bar and grill, we had a couple of meals there, brisket burger and chicken tenders. Very generous with portions, on the last night we decided to have a jug of mojito, our server brought it over and said ' there you go party animals' 😂😂 One sad day was when we found out that Jack Rosen had passed away. Thanks to him The Rosen Plaza and the other Rosens exist. Our hearts went out to all the staff that day it was a solemn one and no surprise he left quite a legacy. Free car parking and no resort fee. It was sad to leave, thank you to all at the Rosen Plaza for a most wonderful stay, we most definitely will be back. Read less

Lovely holiday stay

A very clean hotel that is well maintained. Staff are very friendly and happy to help. Breakfast was very nice although the only change each day was the potatoes. Swimming pool was nice and clean. Bedrooms are nicely furnished and maids left the room spotless. More of a business hotel than leisure but I am glad we picked it. About 10-14 mins… Read more

Arrived at the Hotel with my family and was immediately greeted by a gentleman with a huge smile on his face. We received the room earlier than expected and the check in process was smooth and quick. Left the next day and had a second booking the day after and was also greeted by a young lady also with a huge smile. this experience was much better than expected and would definitely be staying here again in the future. The Hotel itself also was very clean, and the restaurant was amazing. Thank you, team Rosen Plaza, Read less

I Was there for a conference at one of the MASSIVE conference centers. It was a short almost mile walk to the conference. The staff was very helpful (most). The hotel is older but has been updated and was clean very nice, lots of amenities available on site. And if you want something a little different there is plenty that are a short walk away. If you are going to a conference this is a good hotel, if you are going to Universal this is probably a good location. I would not stay here for WDW, but we always stay on Disney property, just because you can't beat their hotels for the parks. Highly recommend Rosen and if we get to go back to this conference we will stay here again. Oh forgot no room service. - just a heads up, not a big deal, but just something that I thought was odd.
