International Drive, Orlando

Virgin rating

The hotel

The Rosen Inn is just a mile from Universal Orlando Resort™, perfectly located for fans of thrill rides like the Incredible Hulk Coaster® and Harry Potter and the Forbidden Journey™. If you are a non-driver, the hotel operates an excellent complimentary scheduled shuttle service to select theme parks. The Palms Dining Room provides a great value breakfast buffet for families, Shogun Japanese steakhouse serves delicious cuisine and Sakura Sushi Bar featuring freshly-prepared sushi rolls, nigari and sashimi served in an intimate setting. For an early evening reviver, The International Pub is on hand with a suitably global array of cocktails and American cuisine. Nearby attractions include the I Drive 360, Madame Tussauds wax museum, and Pirates Adventure Dinner Show — an experience well worth checking out.

Myself and my daughter have just returned from a week’s stay at Rosen Inn Closest to Universal. We had a very pleasant stay.

Myself and my daughter have just returned from a week’s stay at Rosen Inn Closest to Universal. We had a very pleasant stay. The beds are comfortable, there is a daily housekeeping service and the place is clean. The hallways on floor 5 (possibly other floors too) need a lick of paint, but that’s the only negative I have. The shop in reception is very handy for late night snacks/drinks. The pool is ok, nothing spectacular but clean and a good size. It’s bigger than it appears in photos. The location is spot on! If you miss the shuttle to Universal, then it’s just a short, cheap taxi ride. It’s also close to Sea World (again, short journey in a taxi/Uber). There is an ATM on site too. It’s also quiet at night, we slept well and woke up refreshed and ready to hit the parks. Read less

This is our fifth stay at the Rosen Inn and I honestly would never stay anywhere else when visiting Orlando. Rooms are always clean and tidy and come equipped with fridge, microwave, hairdryer, iron and ironing board. A coffee machine is also available in the room. Beds are super comfy and the aircon makes for a comfy sleep when its boiling hot. The pool area is lovely and never too busy. It's perfect for relaxing for a few hours before or after the parks or for a whole day if you're having a chilled day. Towels are provided in the little hut. The bar is nice, reasonably priced and the staff are really friendly. We didn't visit the Shogun restaurant on our last visit but from what I remember the food was 10/10. You can get the free shuttle to universal which takes around 30 minutes to get to the park once its picked up at the other hotels. We usually get an Uber which costs around $5-$10 and takes 5 minutes. Or you can walk in around 20-30 minutes. The I-ride bus stop is right outside the hotel. This will take you up and down I-drive to the outlets and other parks like SeaWorld and Aquatica. Lots of restaurants and bars nearby too. Staff here are so nice and polite. Always a pleasure to speak with them. I have 100% enjoyed every stay at this hotel and can't wait to return again in November. Read less

From the moment we arrived we were greeted by the most beautiful friendly girls on reception we arrived late and we had requested a room with a volcano view and this is what we got and more . ROOM 920 on the top floor amazing views of orlando . We absolutely loved our stay rooms were cleaned every day absolutely immaculate, the most comfy bed I ever slept in , it's not the busiest of the rosens and this suited us perfectly plenty of quiet time in the evening by the pool. We availed of the shuttle multiple times which is handy and the hotel is close to all the amenities on Idrive with a bus stop right outside the doors. Only problem we had was pool was closed for a couple of days due to technical issues but we just found other things to do. We were hoping to travel back on 2026 but honestly can't wait that long so hoping to be back next summer ... Read less

Love this hotel, second time visiting and did not disappoint! Perfect location and very well priced. Bed is very comfy and AC is good. Felt very safe in this hotel with security guards at the front gate. Will be returning to this hotel on my next Orlando trip.
