“Dude there's tiny gators in the atrium! ”

Reviewed 4 days ago NEW via mobile

The rooms are super nice and spacious. I had stayed at the Gaylord Opryland in the past and already had a general idea on what to expect. It's easy to get a little lost so if you're not familiar with the property I would suggest grabbing a map. There's an over 18 pool with a bar and waitstaff. You can... More

“Surprisingly Engaging”

Reviewed 5 days ago NEW

I was surprised that the Gaylord kept me entertained. Yes, mainly for a fee, but there were activities that were free and entertaining for both kids and adults. Though there are plenty of paid services from the spa, the free activities include holding baby gators, learning and watching the feeding of the various aquatic fishes and reptiles, touring the botanics...

“Not as good as advertised”

Reviewed 6 days ago NEW via mobile

I stayed at the Gaylord palm and I didn't like it. Their buffet is expensive for the quality of food. There is nothing within walking distance. I don't recommend it. I found it hard to get a ride from the hotel when I was planning to go to universal studios

“Great property for kids and adults alike.”

Reviewed 6 days ago NEW

What a great property to spend a day. The pool has an amazing kids areas and sides. The prices are comparable to others in the Orlando vicinity. This was our first stay at this brand, and we truly enjoyed the setting, the stay, and the location. A standard room is more than enough, you seriously do not need a balcony... More

“No Uber on the way out”

I stayed at Gaylord with co-workers for a couple of nights, and for my surprise, Uber is not allowed to pick up there. I was told and forced by an employee to use the black car service, which is 4x more expensive. Management should take a close look at this situation. It's my opition to use wherever I want. The...

“Relaxing but expensive”

Reviewed 1 week ago

We stayed here for 2 nights in September 2016 First impression was gorgeous. Trying to find a way into the car park wasn't easy, and trying to find the main desk,slightly harder. It's a huge complex and easy to get lost at first. Our room was lovely. Very spacious and very comfortable. The adults pool and pool bar was lovely... More

“Visited as part of conference”

Reviewed 1 week ago via mobile

This was a nice hotel/resort. Lots of onsite restaurants, shops, and entertainment. It was off season so it was pretty empty, except for our convention attendees. I would avoid the Old Hickory Steakhouse. It was extremely expensive and the food was just average. I would find a way to leave the resort if you want a good steak and get... More

“Enough is enough”

After years of having a wonderful relationship with the Gaylord, my team is tired of the mediocrity of service and added expense. Plus we ate at Moor and it was only okay, and after receiving our $1200 dinner bill we noticed the tip was included but had not mentioned to us...too many Central Florida choices, look elsewhere!

“Grand Time in the Grand Palms!”

This is a very nice hotel, it is as the name suggests Grand. I wouldn't say its a 5 star but definitely 4. The indoor atrium and live reptiles exhibit was pretty cool. The Steak house restaurant has probably the best steak I have ever had and I would return just for the food. The only thing that I saw... More
