“average stay in Kissimmee”
3 of 5 stars Reviewed November 22, 2012

We spent 5 nights here in November.
Bed was wonderfully comfortable,bathroom very clean and hotel staff helpful.
Unfortunately the pool is in the shade most of the day though the whirlpool was very warm.
Breakfast was ok, not fantastic but adequate.
There was a very loud extractor fan?Generator? which meant that leaving the balcony window open was not relaxing even though the sun was shining during the day and at night we would have preferred to leave A/c off with the window open as it was really cool.
Overall a good base for seeing attractions around Orlando.

Room Tip: I think a room at the back would be quieter than looking towards the pool and higher up may be quiet...

“Very accommodating!”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed November 20, 2012

What can I say other than "Thank You." We stayed here for two nights and were very pleased with everything. The business computer and printer was down and we were allowed to use the one at the front desk to print. Staff made us feel very welcome. Our room was in Tower 2 on the 4th floor. Had a view of the parking lot which was not exactly awesome, but this was minor. The resort fee was to be expected; most places in Orlando have them at this point, especially for hotels that are 3 stars or more. Great clean room, wonderful pool and hot tub, very convenient to Old Town and Fun Spot. Shuttle service is offered for Disney and for Seaworld / Universal for a fee. Did not try the Pizza Hut or breakfast offered; Ponderosa Steakhouse was within an easy walking distance.

Keep up the good work, Holiday Inn Maingate East! :)

Room Tip: Tower 2 faces the parking lot. At times, one could hear the noises outside, but it was quite minor t...

“Average Kissimmee Tourist Class Hotel”
3 of 5 stars Reviewed November 19, 2012

Purchase from the hotel web site online and take advantage of the 20% discount for paying in advance. This makes it worth while and more than competitive for an average Kissimmee hotel. We found that the carpets were not kept quite as clean as my wife would like, but I find that this is typical for less expensive properties.

Room Tip: Ask it they have any youth groups booked during your stay and make sure they put you on another floo...

“Fabulous location, large, clean rooms”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed November 15, 2012

We have stayed twice and have been pleased with both stays. Bed was comfortable, room was clean and staff was friendly and helpful. Hotel is an easy 15 minute drive to Downtown Disney and the theme parks. There is also an amusement park with rides (Old Town) right across the street from the hotel. There are several nice restaurants in walking distance -- we walked to the Cracker Barrel, Branigans, Logans and Denny's. There is also a 24 hour McDonald's next door to the hotel. We found a Publix and a Walgreen's in walking distance as well. The hotel has a Pizza Hut "in house" and is a nice convenience. The hotel gym is also a nice feature and had more than adequate equipment for us to use.

Room Tip: We stayed in the first tower and were pleased.

“More than adequate”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed November 14, 2012

For an impromptu trip we booked a room here for a single night because we got a very good deal. First impressions: the hotel is bigger than it looks from the outside.

Pros: the room was nice for the price. The beds were amazing and the pillows, though they are soft, don't deflate to pancakes. You can easily control the temperature in the room since the A/C doesn't require an override. The hotel has a food court with reasonably priced meals (breakfast buffet for $8.99), but there is a mcdonalds within tripping distance. You can walk into old town and play games as well. The staff was also very friendly!

Cons: The bathroom. It is so SMALL. The toilet and the door almost collide and there is no way you can fit two people in there at the same time. At least they have the sink outside. Getting into the parking lot can also be a bit tricky.

During the summer, it is insane to get around due to the high traffic volume around that area, but that's not really the hotel's fault. Overall, I'd say that this is a great choice for families or travelers on a budget.

Room Tip: ask for a room away from the elevator
