I need a room in Orlando

I just mentioned that I’m going to Florida for a long overdue vacation. I know I can stay with friends while I’m in Tampa and I think the night I spend in Gainesville will be with a friend of a friend (that should be interesting – just call me adventurous). When I go over to Orlando, though, I want to stay several days and I don’t actually know anyone right there in the area. So, it looks like I need to find a room that’s both inexpensive and close to the parks. I want to go to the parks with a friend and her daughter and I’ll treat for the room, but I still need to make sure I find a kid-friendly place to stay. I’m super interested in one of the hotels right there in the Disney complex.

I like booking hotels online, because instead of calling one chain at a time and using up hours of my precious office time, I can look at hundreds of options all on one website. Plus, the cooler hotel websites usually have pictures of the rooms and user reviews. The reviews are my favorite thing; because that’s the only real way to find out if you're making Hotel Reservations at a facility that is clean or has good service.

HotelReservations.com gave me tons of detailed results and I found a 4-star hotel with a special $88 rate that the website had as a promotional exclusive. $88! That’s about as good as you’re going to find for anything in the area, not to mention four stars. It’s a major luxury chain, so I’m a happy camper and making my reservations now. It’s a little closer to Universal Studios than Disney, but I want to hit that park while I’m in town also. I checked out their activities section of the site, too, and I can get discounted tickets for several of the parks and other attractions. I’m seriously looking at the Medieval Times Dinner & Tournament thing. Anyone ever been there? It looks like a lot of fun.
