Pros:

The breakfast was good. There was a good variety of food.

Cons:

The front desk made my family and I wait in the lobby for more than two hours. She wouldn’t even check us in at 3:45pm. She said we would have to wait until 4pm for check in. I told her that I have a toddler and that I needed to put my daughter to rest, but she refused to check us in even few minutes before 4pm. There were multiple people complaining in the lobby about many different reasons. There was only one front desk person which made some “diamond customers” upset because they had to wait in line as everybody else.
The pool area is disgusting. There was garbage around the pool on the ground(plastic cups, straws.,). The pool seemed that it hadn’t been cleaned for a long time, and the jacuzzi water was smelling urine so badly.
The breakfast was good and the dining area was spacious. The room was fine except for the bed that seemed quite small for a king size. It was more like queen size bed. I wouldn’t recommend this hotel and wouldn’t go back there either.

Buena opción si vas a los parques
Pros:

La jubilación es perfecta, estás justo en el medio entre los parques de Disney y los de Universal.
El entorno es muy seguro y tiene muchos restaurantes y el personal del hotel es un 10! Super amables y serviciales.

Cons:

El desayuno tiene poca variedad, básicamente todo con harinas.
Por otra parte el servicio de limpieza de las habitaciones debería mejorar mucho más

Muito Boa, localização excelente, perto de tudo, entorno muito charmoso.
Pros:

Hotel muito confortável, quarto excelente com ante sala, pequena cozinha bem equipada, tudo aparentemente muito novo, duas televisões, uma na sala outra no quarto, perfeito para quem quer passar alguns dias em Orlando e pode dispor das acomodações para algumas refeições no hotel.

Cons:

Apenas o check in poderia ter sido antecipado pois chegamos as 14:00 e não nos liberaram. Como isto está no contrato não reclamamos, mas poderiam ter sido mais corteses pois tínhamos um compromisso agendado e não pudemos tomar um banho depois de uma longa viagem.

Okay
Pros:

The locations distance to Walmart and Disney

Cons:

They offered at shuttle that does not go to magic kingdom only Epcot and it’s supposed to arrive around 9am, driver was late causing us to arrive at magic kingdom later than expected. Also if Disney closes at 10 which is the last shuttle way before the fireworks. Also, the bath tub needs work , my toddler wanted to take a bath because she’s scared of showers and it did not look clean enough for her to bathe in. They have a bbq pit by the pool, I assumed it was charcoal , it was propane and they do not put propane in so we ordered our own pit. Staff didn’t know anything about what we needed to do to get it refueled

Pros:

Some staff were useless. Room was not cleaned in 11 days,I had to ask for clean towels and bedding. Breakfast was atrocious with plastic knife and forks. I will not stay here again. You should either up your game and provide the service people are paying for or drop the price.

Great Experience. Will use them again
Pros:

Our stay at Homewood Suites by Hilton Lake Buena Vista was truly exceptional. From the moment we arrived, the level of service stood out—staff were welcoming, attentive, and consistently went above and beyond to ensure we had a great experience. Although our room was not ready at check-in, which was initially disappointing, the team handled the situation professionally and more than made up for it with their care and responsiveness.

The suite itself was spacious, spotless, and thoughtfully designed. The beds were extremely comfortable, and having a full kitchen with a sink and refrigerator added great convenience. The bathroom was also notably large and well-maintained, making the overall stay even more comfortable.

While I wouldn’t categorize this as a luxury hotel, it absolutely delivers a high level of comfort and service that makes you feel very well taken care of. Everything worked seamlessly throughout our stay.

The location is another strong advantage—situated in a quiet, residential-feeling area that felt safe, yet still very close to major attractions, theme parks, and outlet shopping. It was ideal for our trip, as we were primarily looking for a comfortable place to rest and recharge during our vacation in Orlando.

Breakfast was solid and offered a good variety, including coffee, juice, pancakes, bagels, yogurt, eggs, sausage, and waffles. The breakfast area was well organized and enjoyable. Parking is available for a fee, and we did not observe any concerns regarding safety in the area.

Overall, this was one of the best hotel experiences I’ve had. I would absolutely return and highly recommend it to anyone visiting Orlando.

I also appreciate the front desk gentleman for giving us few extra minutes to check out as half of my family were taking some time shopping and they forgot the checkout was at 11;00 AM.

WARNING: Parking Fines, Unhelpful Management, and Poor Service
Pros:

​I stayed at the Homewood Suites Lake Buena Vista for three weeks, and I strongly advise other travelers to book elsewhere. While the room itself was a good size, the terrible service and completely unacceptable management practices overshadowed the entire stay.

​The Daily Service Issues:

​Housekeeping: Housekeeping never once replenished our towels. For 21 days straight, we had to go out of our way to beg the staff for basic bathroom towels.

​Breakfast: Extremely basic, uninspired, and highly disappointing for an extended-stay property.

​Front Desk: The staff were consistently unhelpful and dismissive of basic guest needs throughout the entire three weeks.

​The Parking Trap & Management Runaround:

The absolute worst part of this experience, however, was the parking. The hotel charges an extortionate $25 per day for parking, which I paid directly to the hotel reception. Despite this, I was issued a parking ticket by their parking management company, which subsequently triggered extra penalty fees from my car rental company.

​When I brought this up to the hotel, they washed their hands of it and told me it had "nothing to do with them." It was only after I escalated the issue to the Hilton corporate complaints team that the Assistant General Manager, Karina, finally stepped in and promised to resolve it.

​I have now been liaising with Karina for six months. After stringing me along for half a year, she has now decided the issue is "too difficult" to resolve and has reverted to the original excuse: claiming it has nothing to do with the hotel.

​Let me be clear: I paid the hotel directly for parking, they allowed me to be fined in their own lot, and they refuse to take responsibility or make it right.

​Save yourself the stress, the unexpected fines, and the exhausting customer service battle. Do not stay at this hotel.
