Good option near Downtown
Pros:

Although we only stayed at this hotel for one night, we had a great experience. The accommodations were clean, comfortable, and well-maintained. Having a Starbucks on-site was a convenient bonus, especially for an early start to the day. The hotel’s location was also excellent—close to downtown

Cons:

The only minor issue we encountered was that the room was not stocked with enough towels for the number of guests in our party. We had to contact the front desk to request additional towels

Exceptional service and care
Pros:

I recently hosted a committee meeting at this Courtyard location, and I cannot say enough good things about the staff. From start to finish, the customer service was absolutely exceptional. The entire team was incredibly thoughtful, cheerful, and helpful—consistently going above and beyond to ensure our event ran perfectly. They truly took the stress out of coordinating our meeting and made everyone feel genuinely welcome. If you are looking for a venue with top-tier service, this is it. Thank you to the wonderful team for going over the top for us! I would especially like to highlight the efforts of Cheryl, Katie, Venon, Hanna, Jorge V., Ellis (a.k.a. EJ), Fior, Maria (What Would Maria Do?), Emily, Debra, Rose, Souvenie, Geeta, Angela and Jazmin.

My Home Away From Home!
Pros:

I travel for work weekly and have stayed at enough hotels to know the difference between good service and genuinely exceptional service. This Courtyard is my chosen property every time - and that's not by default.

Fior, Kendra, Ellis, and Yami stand out in the best way, and Cheryl, the manager, is simply phenomenal. She goes above and beyond consistently, and it shows in the entire culture of the staff. Every single person here brings warmth and professionalism to every interaction.

I wouldn't choose anywhere else. The experience here is nothing short of exceptional, every time.

Great place in downtown Orlando nice area
Pros:

A really excellent team Maria and Emily in the breakfast area is so great. They're welcoming. Jorge Vargas, the operations manager make sure everything is going smoothly. Dominique at the front desk with a warm welcome, my room was nice, large clean and the beds were comfortable. I also saw that the bistro area was pretty lively at night and they have the world cup games going. It was a great experience

Exceptional Service with a Truly Welcoming, Family-Like Atmosphere
Pros:

In my recent stay and all my stays at the Courtyard by Marriott Orlando Downtown was nothing short of outstanding. What truly sets this property apart is not just the quality of the facility, but the people who bring it to life every day.
From the moment I arrived, I was met with genuine warmth and professionalism that immediately made me feel at home. The entire team, front desk, management, café, Kitche staff, and support staff, operates with a level of care and attentiveness that goes well beyond what you typically experience. There’s a distinct sense of pride, cohesion, and positivity that’s felt throughout the hotel.
What stood out most was the family-like atmosphere fostered by the manager, management. It’s clear that the staff enjoy working together, and that positive energy translates directly into the guest experience. Every interaction felt truly sincere, not transactional, and it makes a meaningful difference in the overall stay.
The service is truly above and beyond. Whether it was accommodating requests, offering helpful recommendations, or simply greeting guests with a smile, the team consistently demonstrated a commitment to excellence. The manager is highly engaged and visible, reinforcing a culture of hospitality that is both professional and personal.
This location consistently delivers a genuine 5 star service experience, driven by exceptional people who clearly care about their guests and take pride in what they do.
• Hanna is truly exceptional, her professionalism, warmth, and attention to detail set the tone for an outstanding stay from the moment you arrive. She goes above and beyond to ensure every guest feels welcomed and valued – every engagement (in person or on the phone) and every time I have stayed.
• Domique is very much appreciated for her positive attitude and willingness to assist wherever needed.
• Yamii and Eleis are engaging and personable, creating a friendly and inviting atmosphere that enhances the overall guest experience at the Cafe.
• Maria stands out as incredibly hardworking and genuinely customer-focused, consistently ensuring guests are well taken care of with a smile.
• Flor brings a firm, confident, and dedicated presence that reinforces a high standard of service and guest care.
• Angela is steady, reliable, and always on task, contributing to a smooth and seamless operation.
Overall, this team exemplifies excellence, making every visit both enjoyable and memorable. There are other team members, names I failed to capture. I would not hesitate to return and highly/strongly recommend this hotel to anyone visiting the Orlando area.

The best hotel
Pros:

This was the best hotel I’ve ever been to. The breakfast was prepared perfectly by Ms. Rose and we were well taken care of by Ms. Geeta. Our experience checking in and requesting extras were met quickly and with wonderful warmth. Location is easy to get to and the rooms were spacious. I enjoy the clean open lobby area with bar to enjoy some social time before relaxing. Parking is extra but can be combined with your room to speed up check in. Great quiet hotel that accommodates for Autism with amazing grace.
