“Great Experience”

Jan 08, 2026Sherry S

My family of four had a really great stay. My boys loved the pool, though it couldve been a bit warmer. The food was great at the market. Our room was nice, though the walls are super thin and could hear our neighbours having a full conversation in the bathroom almost as if they were in our room. We were on the second floor, which we didnt mind, as we often just took the stairs instead of waiting for an elevator. Shuttle buses were great and on time. Would definitely stay here again

“EXCELLENT Universal Hotel”

Dec 31, 2025OsvaldoPR

This hotel was EXCELLENT in all ways. The customer service was great and the food court was excellent with delicious food and the personal were very kind all the time. The shuttles to citywalk and the theme parks are great and very convenient. I would Recommend it definitively and I will go back there again in the future.

“Nice hotel”

Dec 28, 2025Hiker216

This is a very nice hotel. They have a very nice pool area and good size food court for breakfast, lunch, and dinner. I like staying at universal resorts because you can use the buses to get to the different parks. We did have a rental car, so we did have to pay to park the car. It's a very large hotel, but once you know where uou are going it's great. The staff was very nice with any questions we had.
