Hotel is a little hidden back from the main road, but also very quiet from noise. Great that there are no mandatory self parking fees that have gotten out of control for alot of hotels lately. Staff is very friendly and received a good rate on priceline, will go back. More

If you need a place near UCF for business or pleasure, I would recommend giving the Holiday inn a shot. This particular property is a bit old but the lobby/restaurant area has been updated. Some, if not all, of the rooms have been updated as well. The furniture is typical Florida modern but the decor is tollerable. The hotel has... More

We live in Clermont but take night classes at UCF so we stay here every week instead of driving home. Always been a nice hotel but now they are making improvements and upgrades throughout. Best place to stay for the money. If you stay, go to the bar and say Hi to Mary, the best and friendliest bartender in Orlando! More

I stayed here after Christmas 2011 for a few days because I was in town for a wedding. The room was neat but not "white glove inspection" clean. The bathroom counter, tray with cups and ice bucket were dusty. When we turned on the tv, we got "white noise". I waited a bit to see if it would clear on... More

Spent 5 days here on business. Location is off street, in a beautiful park-like setting. Staff was very friendly and helpful. Even when a college function arrived on Friday, the room was nice and quiet. Did I mention we were right next to the elevator? We never heard it running even once. Nice job Holiday Inn, we'll be back. More
